RandonautEntroPy

PyPI version PyPI - License

This project provides tools for interacting with the Randonautica QRNG and Temporal entropy generators. It provides a Python API, and a rndo command-line tool.

Fair Use Policy

Please request only the entropy amount you really need for your project. Please note that in case of overuse the API is subject to immediate modifications and amendments to free availability.

Temporal on the other hand runs on your system and is always available.

Installation

$ pip install randonautentropy

Installing Temporal

The first time the temporal.get Python method or rndo -t command line option are called, a script attempts to automatically install the TemporalLib shell tool dependency in /usr/local/bin

In case that fails you can install it yourself:

$ sudo apt install git build-essential
$ git clone --depth 1 [email protected]:TheRandonauts/temporal.git
$ cd temporal
$ ./make.sh

Python API

The randonautentropy Python module contains low-level get functions.

>>> from randonautentropy import rndo
>>> from randonautentropy import temporal

>>> rndo.get(length=10, type='hex16')

e5b779d67eda68636cb9

>>> temporal.get(length=10, channel=0)

Extended Functionality

The rndo.get function can also retrieve a single 32bit random number in different formats:

>>> rndo.get(type='int32')

-968449906

>>> rndo.get(type='uniform')

0.9251141917698646

>>> rndo.get(type='normal')

0.8924809489412333

>>> rndo.get(type='base64')

JA==

The temporal.get method can switch from the default high quality entropy mode to a faster but slightly lower entropy mode by switching its channel to 1.

>>> temporal.get(channel=1)

Command Line Interface

The package also comes with a rndo CLI:

usage: rndo [-h] [--rndo] [--temporal] [bytes]

A tool for printing random data from the Randonautica Quantum Random Number Generators

positional arguments:
  bytes           amount of hexadecimal bytes

options:
  -h, --help      show this help message and exit
  --rndo, -r      Hexadecimal QRNG entropy
  --temporal, -t  Hexadecimal Temporal entropy

Example:

$ rndo -r 100

$ rndo -t 100
