Reference implementation of BIP-0039: Mnemonic code for generating
deterministic keys
Abstract
--------
This BIP describes the implementation of a mnemonic code or mnemonic sentence --
a group of easy to remember words -- for the generation of deterministic wallets.
It consists of two parts: generating the mnenomic, and converting it into a
binary seed. This seed can be later used to generate deterministic wallets using
BIP-0032 or similar methods.
BIP Paper
---------
See https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0039.mediawiki
for full specification
Installation
------------
To install this library and its dependencies use:
``pip install mnemonic``
Usage examples
--------------
Import library into python project via:
.. code-block:: python
from mnemonic import Mnemonic
Initialize class instance, picking from available dictionaries:
- english
- chinese_simplified
- chinese_traditional
- french
- italian
- japanese
- korean
- spanish
- turkish
- czech
- portuguese
.. code-block:: python
mnemo = Mnemonic(language)
mnemo = Mnemonic("english")
Generate word list given the strength (128 - 256):
.. code-block:: python
words = mnemo.generate(strength=256)
Given the word list and custom passphrase (empty in example), generate seed:
.. code-block:: python
seed = mnemo.to_seed(words, passphrase="")
Given the word list, calculate original entropy:
.. code-block:: python
entropy = mnemo.to_entropy(words)
