Description : password strength checking library for Python
Safe provides a small library to check a proposed password against some
obviously insecure patterns, and also against a dictionary of 10k common
passwords. It also checks for the presence of mixed case characters, numbers
and symbols. Usage is as simple as:
.
import safe
strength = safe.check('x*V-92Ba')
strength.strength #=> 'strong'
bool(strength) #=> True
I intend to package this within in Python modules team and look for a sponsor
there. It is a dependency of flexget (ITP: #724718).
