t.s.p.IUsernameMD5Password(ICredentials) : interface documentation

Part of twisted.spread.pb View Source View In Hierarchy

Known implementations: twisted.spread.pb._PortalAuthChallenger

I encapsulate a username and a hashed password.

This credential is used for username/password over PB. CredentialCheckers which check this kind of credential must store the passwords in plaintext form or as a MD5 digest.

Instance Variable username The username associated with these credentials. (type: str or Deferred)
Method checkPassword Validate these credentials against the correct password.
Method checkMD5Password Validate these credentials against the correct MD5 digest of the password.
username =
The username associated with these credentials. (type: str or Deferred)
def checkPassword(password): (source)

def checkMD5Password(password): (source)
Validate these credentials against the correct MD5 digest of the password.
ParameterspasswordThe correct MD5 digest of a password against which to check. (type: str)
ReturnsTrue if the credentials represented by this object match the given digest, False if they do not, or a Deferred which will be called back with one of these values. (type: bool or Deferred)
