How to Sign and Verify with Ed25519 in Python
A minimal Ed25519 sign-and-verify helper that generates a key pair, signs a message, and checks the signature with the cryptography library.
import hashlib
from cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric import ed25519
from cryptography.hazmat.primitives import serialization
def sign_verify_mock(
message: bytes,
private_key: ed25519.Ed25519PrivateKey,
public_key: ed25519.Ed25519PublicKey
) -> tuple[bool, bytes]:
signature = private_key.sign…How to redact secrets from log messages in Python
This code defines a logging.Filter subclass that automatically redacts sensitive keys like password, token, and API key from any dict logged.
import logging
from dataclasses import dataclass
@dataclass
class ApiResponse:
status: int
body: dict
class SecretRedactor(logging.Filter):
SENSITIVE_KEYS = {"password", "token", "secret", "api_key"}
def filter(self, record: logging.LogRecord) -> bool:
if isinstance(record.msg, dict):
…Automate Semantic Versioning with Conventional Commits in Python
Automatically bump a semantic version based on conventional commit messages (feat, fix, BREAKING CHANGE) and write the new version to a file.
import re
from pathlib import Path
def get_next_version(current: str, commit_messages: list[str]) -> str:
"""Return the next semantic version based on conventional commit messages."""
major, minor, patch = map(int, current.split("."))
if any(msg.startswith("BREAKING CHANGE") for msg in commit_messages):
