Class MemoryNonceStore

source code

Simple in-memory mechanism to store nonces.

>>> s = MemoryNonceStore(maxuses=1)
>>> n = s.newnonce()
>>> s.checknonce("spam")
False
>>> s.checknonce(n)
True
>>> s.checknonce(n)
False
>>> n = s.newnonce()
>>> s.checknonce(n.rsplit(':', 1)[0] + "bad hash")
False

Method Details [hide private]

__init__(self, maxage=300, maxuses=5)
(Constructor)

source code 

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see help(type(x)) for signature

Parameters:
  • maxage (int) - is the number of seconds a nonce may be valid. Choosing a large value may result in more memory usage whereas a smaller value results in more requests. Defaults to 5 minutes.
  • maxuses (int) - is the number of times a nonce may be used (with different nc values). A value of 1 makes nonces usable exactly once resulting in more requests. Defaults to 5.
Overrides: object.__init__

newnonce(self, ident=None)

source code 

Generates a new nonce string.

Parameters:
  • ident (None or str) - is an identifier to be associated with this nonce
Returns: str
Overrides: NonceStoreBase.newnonce

checknonce(self, nonce, count=1, ident=None)

source code 

Do a check for whether the provided string is a nonce and increase usage count on returning True.

Parameters:
  • count (int) - indicates how often the nonce has been used (including this check)
  • ident (None or str) - it is also checked that the nonce was associated to this identifier when given
  • nonce (str)
Returns: bool
Overrides: NonceStoreBase.checknonce
