Examples ======== Library ------- Checking that a password meets the minimum requirements:: from nisteag.token.requirements.memorized import BaseThrottler, Level1Checker class MyThrottler(BaseThrottler): def check(self, username, token): """Verify that the token hasn't failed too many times and too frequently.""" checker = Level1Checker(MyThrottler()) checker.check('This Is a b1g and r3l3v4nt passwrod!') checker.check('this') # will fail, however. # also fails, since the token matches the provided word dictionary checker.check('known one', dictionary=['known one', 'something else']) # also fails, since it's an anagram of the username checker.check('silent', username='listen') You can also just calculate the entropy directly, if you want:: from nisteag.entropy import EntropyCalculator calculator = EntropyCalculator() calculator.calculate('abcd') # returns 10.0 .. _command-line: Command-line ------------ You can also check the entropy of a password from the command-line:: $ check-entropy abcd 10.0 $ check-entropy # will pick the password via user input
