Isis Lovecruft e4f2d533b1 Add cipher, compress, and digest preferences and rename parameters. * Rename gpghome to homedir. * Rename gpgbinary to binary. * Add setting to append '--no-use-agent' to the command string in an attempt to overcome bugs resulting on systems where the user has gpg-agent running in the background (with some configurations, this is run before X is started, and killing the agent can result in X dying) and GnuPG tries to call the program specified by the symlink at /usr/bin/pinentry, result in encryption and decryption failing due to the '--batch' option blasting through pinentry without input. This results in a complaint from GnuPG: gpg: Sorry, no terminal at all requested - can't get input This bug also prevents symmetric encryption/decryption from working in a similar manner. Daniel Kahn Gilmor's monkeysphere, if I am recalling correctly, has a hack to remove the $DISPLAY variable from the users environment, and then add it back in, but frankly this option frightens me, as unsetting the display could result in all X applications failing. Werner Koch's suggestions, from the gnupg-devel mailing list are: http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2007-April/030927.html And, for the record, '--no-use-agent' doesn't disable pinentry.		2013-05-11 18:03:41 +00:00

python-gnupg

================

Fork of python-gnupg-0.3.2, patched to remove Popen([...], shell=True).

Installation

From this git repository

To install this package from this git repository, do:

git clone https://github.com/isislovecruft/python-gnupg.git
cd python-gnupg
make install
make test

Optionally to build the documentation after installation, do:

make docs

To get started using python-gnupg's API, see the online documentation, and import the module like so:

>>> import gnupg

The primary interface class you'll likely want to interact with is gnupg.GPG:

>>> gpg = gnupg.GPG(gpgbinary='/usr/bin/gpg',
...     gpghome='./keys',
...     pubring='pubring.gpg',
...     secring='secring.gpg')
>>> batch_key_input = gpg.gen_key_input()
>>> print batch_key_input
Key-Type: RSA
Name-Email: isis@wintermute
Name-Comment: Generated by gnupg.py
Key-Length: 4096
Name-Real: Autogenerated Key
%pubring /home/isis/code/python-gnupg/keys/pubring.gpg
%secring /home/isis/code/python-gnupg/keys/secring.gpg
%commit

>>> key = gpg.gen_key(batch_key_input)
>>> print key.fingerprint

From PyPI

Hold your horses, boy. I haven't finished development, so the packages on PyPI are still the old versions belonging to the other authors.
