pyxmldsig is a Python module to create and verify XML Digital Signatures (XML-DSig).

This is a simple interface to the PyXMLSec library, aiming to provide a more

pythonic API suitable for Python applications.

See http://www.decalage.info/python/pyxmldsig to download the latest version.

May be used as a command-line tool or as a Python module.

This code is inspired from PyXMLSec samples, with a more pythonic interface:

USAGE AS A TOOL:

pyxmldsig.py  -k  [-c cert-file.pem] [-p password]

USAGE IN A PYTHON APPLICATION:

import pyxmldsig

# simple function interface:

signed_xml = pyxmldsig.sign_file(template_file='myfile.xml',

    key_file='mykey.pem', cert_file='myx509cert.pem', password='mypassword')

print signed_xml

# sign with class interface:

xdsig = pyxmldsig.Xmldsig(key_file='mykey.pem', cert_file='myx509cert.pem',

    password='mypassword')

signed_xml1 = xdsig.sign_file('myfile.xml')

signed_xml2 = xdsig.sign_file(pyxmldsig.TEMPLATE_WITH_CERT)

# verify with class interface:

xdsig2 = pyxmldsig.Xmldsig()

xdsig2.load_certs(['cacert.pem', 'myx509cert.pem'])

assert xdsig2.verify_xmlstring(signed_xml1) == True

assert xdsig2.verify_xmlstring(signed_xml2) == True
