pwdpy
=======

pwdpy is a set of tools to facilitate password handling. It can be used in command line and as a python module.

Installation
============

pwdpy requires Python 3.x.

pwdpy can be installed with *pip*:

    $ pip install pwdpy

Usage (command line)
====================

pwdpy accepts several arguments configuring its outcome.
Overall synopsis is:

    $ pwdpy {generate, entropy, strengthen} [-h]
    
    $ pwdpy generate [-h] [-l LENGTH] [-q QUANTITY] [-p] [-d] [-le] [-nu] [-nl] [-cf FILE] [-o FILE]
    
    $ pwdpy entropy [-h] [-pwd PASSWORD]
    
    $ pwdpy strengthen [-h] [-pwd PASSWORD] [-shf] [-inc] [-mp MAX_PREFIX] [-ms MAX_SUFIX]

    $ pwdpy generate_wordlist [-h] [-q QUANTITY] [-l LENGTH] [-lg LANGUAGE] [-sep SEP] [-u] [-wl WORDLIST]

Examples
--------

Below are some examples of pwdpy usage.

GENERATE:
-------
One password with letters and digits:

    $ pwdpy generate -le -d 
        MT06aRK1

One password with 12 digits:

    $ pwdpy generate -l 12 -d
        304751766483

One password with all characters possibility:

    $ pwdpy generate -le -d -p
        PY>8OH+y

A list containing 3 passwords with all characters possibility:

    $ pwdpy generate -q 3 -le -d -p
        ['Xw]6ua77', 'SfmCrlg)', 'I9):o8Oa']

One password with all characters possibility from the charset file:

    $ pwdpy generate -cf ./wordlist.txt
        }=W8jb4y

ENTROPY:
-------
Calculing one password entropy:

    $ pwdpy entropy -pwd "PY>8OH+y"
        52.44
    
    $ pwdpy entropy -pwd "Isaac"
        28.5
        
STRENGTHEN:
-------
Strengthen one password:

    $ pwdpy strengthen -pwd "Isaac"
        15Á4C
    
    $ pwdpy strengthen -pwd "Isaac" -inc
        <uQ0@îsá4c~
        
Strengthened and using shuffle

    $ pwdpy strengthen -pwd "Python" -shf
        ý%IÕqN

GENERATE WORDLIST:
-------
Generate one wordlist with 13 words:

    $ pwdpy generate_wordlist -l 13
        dollhood obligatum weirded triangularly meanness uncrediting ologies pomological refixture accessible clapperclaws winzeman montesinos

Generate one wordlist with portuguese upper words:

    $ generate_wordlist -lg portuguese -u

Python module
=============

pwdpy Python module provides one function that is called generate.

| ``generate(quantity=1, length=12, special_characters=True, digits=True, letters=True, l_upper=True, l_lower=True, charset=[], charset_file="",output_file="", **kwargs) -> str or list``

    It returns a string with *length* characters. *special_characters*, *digits*
    and *letters* arguments specify whether special characters, digits and letters
    should be used. *l_upper* and *l_lower* specifies letter wich case the letter can be.
    
    A list of charsets can be passed, instead of using the default it will uses the parameter.
    
    You can configure an output using *charset_file*, that file will be
    created or replaced with the generated passwords
    
    
| ``entropy(password: str) -> float``

    It returns a float of bits that was the result of applying the Shannon formula.


| ``strengthen(password: str, shuffle=False, increase=True, max_prefix=5, max_sufix=5) -> str``

    It returns a string the strengthen password,
    can be added a prefix and/or sufix by using *max_prefix* and *max_sufix*
    and the password can be shuffle using *shuffle*.

| ``generate_wordlist(quantity=1, length=8, language="english", sep=" ", case="lower", wordlist: str = None) -> str orlist``
    
    It returns a string with *length* of words.
    The words are select by *language* and separeted by *sep*.
    Define case of the words using *case*.
    Or you can pass your own wordlist using *wordlist*.
