How to Revoke Tokens with a Blacklist Set in Python
A minimal TokenBlacklist class using a Python set to revoke, batch-revoke, check, and remove expired tokens for simple token invalidation.
import time
class TokenBlacklist:
def __init__(self):
self.blacklisted_tokens = set()
def revoke(self, token):
self.blacklisted_tokens.add(token)
print(f"Token {token} revoked. Blacklist size: {len(self.blacklisted_tokens)}")
def revoke_batch(self, tokens):
before = len(s…How to mock short TTL access tokens in Python
Simulate short-lived access tokens with a TTL, issue and validate them, and watch expiry behavior.
import time
import uuid
from datetime import datetime, timedelta
class AccessTokenManager:
def __init__(self, ttl_seconds=30):
self.ttl_seconds = ttl_seconds
self.tokens = {}
def issue_token(self):
token_id = uuid.uuid4().hex
expiry = datetime.now() + timedelta(seconds=self.t…Browse by section
