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…OAuth2 authorization code flow mock in Python
A minimal HTTP server that mocks the OAuth2 authorization code flow, issuing codes via /authorize and exchanging them for tokens at /token.
import json
from http.server import BaseHTTPRequestHandler, HTTPServer
from urllib.parse import urlparse, parse_qs
AUTH_CODE_STORE = {}
CLIENT_ID = "demo-client"
REDIRECT_URI = "http://localhost:8000/callback"
class OAuthHandler(BaseHTTPRequestHandler):
def do_GET(self):
parsed = urlparse(self.path)
…How to Mock Canary Deployment Traffic Split in Python
Simulate a canary deployment's stable/canary traffic split using deterministic request hashing to mock rollout behavior with precise percentage control.
class CanaryDeployment:
def __init__(self, stable_weight: float = 0.9, canary_weight: float = 0.1):
self.stable_weight = stable_weight
self.canary_weight = canary_weight
self.total_weight = stable_weight + canary_weight

Create a deterministic mock signing cost calculator that predicts resource usage for image signatures before real signing infrastructure is staged.
import math
import struct
def sign_image_cost(image_signature: bytes) -> int:
"""Deterministic mock signing cost based on image signature bytes."""
if not image_signature:
raise ValueError("Empty image signature")
