.. hazmat::
.. module:: cryptography.hazmat.primitives.interfaces
Interfaces
==========
``cryptography`` uses `Abstract Base Classes`_ as interfaces to describe the
properties and methods of most primitive constructs. Backends may also use
this information to influence their operation. Interfaces should also be used
to document argument and return types.
.. _`Abstract Base Classes`: https://docs.python.org/3/library/abc.html
Asymmetric interfaces
---------------------
In 0.8 the asymmetric signature and verification interfaces were moved to the
:mod:`cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric` module.
In 0.8 the asymmetric padding interface was moved to the
:mod:`cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.padding` module.
DSA
~~~
In 0.8 the DSA key interfaces were moved to the
:mod:`cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.dsa` module.
RSA
~~~
In 0.8 the RSA key interfaces were moved to the
:mod:`cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.rsa` module.
Elliptic Curve
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In 0.8 the EC key interfaces were moved to the
:mod:`cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.ec` module.
Key derivation functions
------------------------
.. class:: KeyDerivationFunction
.. versionadded:: 0.2
.. method:: derive(key_material)
:param bytes key_material: The input key material. Depending on what
key derivation function you are using this
could be either random bytes, or a user
supplied password.
:return: The new key.
:raises cryptography.exceptions.AlreadyFinalized: This is raised when
:meth:`derive` or
:meth:`verify` is
called more than
once.
This generates and returns a new key from the supplied key material.
.. method:: verify(key_material, expected_key)
:param bytes key_material: The input key material. This is the same as
``key_material`` in :meth:`derive`.
:param bytes expected_key: The expected result of deriving a new key,
this is the same as the return value of
:meth:`derive`.
:raises cryptography.exceptions.InvalidKey: This is raised when the
derived key does not match
the expected key.
:raises cryptography.exceptions.AlreadyFinalized: This is raised when
:meth:`derive` or
:meth:`verify` is
called more than
once.
This checks whether deriving a new key from the supplied
``key_material`` generates the same key as the ``expected_key``, and
raises an exception if they do not match. This can be used for
something like checking whether a user's password attempt matches the
stored derived key.
`Message Authentication Code`_
------------------------------
.. class:: CMACContext
:class:`CMACContext` has been deprecated in favor of :class:`MACContext`.
.. versionadded:: 0.4
.. method:: update(data)
:param bytes data: The data you want to authenticate.
.. method:: finalize()
:return: The message authentication code.
.. method:: copy()
:return: A :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.interfaces.CMACContext`
that is a copy of the current context.
.. class:: MACContext
.. versionadded:: 0.7
.. method:: update(data)
:param bytes data: The data you want to authenticate.
.. method:: finalize()
:return: The message authentication code.
.. method:: copy()
:return: A
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.interfaces.MACContext` that
is a copy of the current context.
.. method:: verify(signature)
:param bytes signature: The signature to verify.
:raises cryptography.exceptions.InvalidSignature: This is raised when
the provided signature does not match the expected signature.
