![Passlib](https://passlib.readthedocs.io/en/stable/_images/masthead.png)
## Passlib has moved!
**2020-05-04:** Due to BitBucket deprecating Mercurial support, Passlib's public repository and issue tracker
has been relocated. It's now located at https://foss.heptapod.net/python-libs/passlib,
and is powered by [Heptapod](https://heptapod.net/).
Hosting is being graciously provided by the people at
[Octobus](https://octobus.net) and [CleverCloud](https://clever-cloud.com/)!
Please update all URLs to the new repository!
## Passlib 1.7.2 is out!
**2019-11-12:** We're happy to announce [Passlib 1.7.2](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/passlib). The 1.7 series has been a while in coming, and has a lot of great improvements...
* Argon2 & Scrypt hash support
* TOTP support
* PBKDF2 now has faster builtin backend, and utilizes other backends where available
* Lots of API cleanups and internal refactoring
* HtpasswdFile reader is now more flexible, and with improved security options.
* Refreshed documentation
See the [release notes](https://passlib.readthedocs.io/en/stable/history/1.7.html) for more details.
## About
Passlib is a password hashing library for Python 2 & 3, which provides
cross-platform implementations of over 30 password hashing algorithms, as well
as a framework for managing existing password hashes. It's designed to be useful
for a wide range of tasks, from verifying a hash found in /etc/shadow, to
providing full-strength password hashing for multi-user application.
* See the [documentation](https://passlib.readthedocs.io)
for details, installation instructions, and examples.
* Visit [PyPI](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/passlib)
for the latest stable release.
All releases are signed with the gpg key
[4D8592DF4CE1ED31](http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x4D8592DF4CE1ED31).

Usage
=====
A quick example of using passlib to integrate into a new application::
>>> # import the example context object under an app-specific name (so it can easily be replaced later)
>>> from passlib.apps import custom_app_context as pwd_context
>>> # encrypting a password...
>>> hash = pwd_context.hash("somepass")
>>> hash
'$6$rounds=36122$kzMjVFTjgSVuPoS.$zx2RoZ2TYRHoKn71Y60MFmyqNPxbNnTZdwYD8y2atgoRIp923WJSbcbQc6Af3osdW96MRfwb5Hk7FymOM6D7J1'
>>> # verifying a password...
>>> ok = pwd_context.verify("somepass", hash)
True
>>> ok = pwd_context.verify("letmein", hash)
False
For more details and an extended set of examples, see the [full documentation](https://passlib.readthedocs.io);
This example barely touches on the range of features available.

Development
===========
Passlib's source repository uses Mercurial. When building Passlib from an hg clone, note that there are two main branches: ``default`` and ``stable``.
* ``default`` is the bleeding edge of the next major release. It may sometimes be of alpha quality.
* ``stable`` is the latest released version plus any pending bugfixes, and should be safe to use in production.
