== python-yubihsm
Python library and tests for the YubiHSM 2.
The current version (3.0) supports Python 3.9 and later.
Communicates with the YubiHSM 2 connector daemon, which must already be running.
It can also communicate directly with the YubiHSM 2 via USB (requires libusb).

=== Installation
From PyPI:
$ pip install yubihsm[http,usb]
From a source .tar.gz:
$ pip install yubihsm-<version>.tar.gz[http,usb]
Omitting a tag from the brackets will install the library without support for
that backend, and will avoid installing unneeded dependencies.
=== Quick reference commands:
[source,python]
----
from yubihsm import YubiHsm
from yubihsm.defs import CAPABILITY, ALGORITHM
from yubihsm.objects import AsymmetricKey
from cryptography.hazmat.primitives import serialization
# Connect to the YubiHSM via the connector using the default password:
hsm = YubiHsm.connect('http://localhost:12345')
session = hsm.create_session_derived(1, 'password')
# Generate a private key on the YubiHSM for creating signatures:
key = AsymmetricKey.generate( # Generate a new key object in the YubiHSM.
session, # Secure YubiHsm session to use.
0, # Object ID, 0 to get one assigned.
'My key', # Label for the object.
1, # Domain(s) for the object.
CAPABILITY.SIGN_ECDSA, # Capabilities for the object, can have multiple.
ALGORITHM.EC_P256 # Algorithm for the key.
)
# pub_key is a cryptography.io ec.PublicKey, see https://cryptography.io
pub_key = key.get_public_key()
# Write the public key to a file:
with open('public_key.pem', 'wb') as f:
f.write(pub_key.public_bytes(
encoding=serialization.Encoding.PEM,
format=serialization.PublicFormat.SubjectPublicKeyInfo
))
# Sign some data:
signature = key.sign_ecdsa(b'Hello world!') # Create a signature.
# Clean up:
session.close()
hsm.close()

=== Development
This project uses https://docs.astral.sh/uv/[uv] for development.
Follow the uv Getting Started guide to install and configure it.
When `uv` is installed and configured you can set up the dev environment for this project by running the following command in the root directory of the repository:
$ uv sync --all-extras
==== Pre-commit checks
This project uses https://pre-commit.com to run several checks on the code
prior to committing. To enable the hooks, run these commands in the root
directory of the repository:
$ uv tool install pre-commit
$ pre-commit install
Once the hooks are installed, they will run automatically on any changed files
when committing. To run the hooks against all files in the repository, run:
$ pre-commit run --all-files
==== Running tests
Running the tests require a YubiHSM2 to run against, with the default
authentication key enabled (as is the case after performing a factory reset).
WARNING: The YubiHSM under test will be factory reset by the tests!
$ uv run pytest
See pytest documentation for instructions on running a specific test.
By default the tests will connect to a yubihsm-connector running with the
default settings on http://localhost:12345. To change this, use the `--backend`
argument, eg:
$ uv run pytest --backend "yhusb://"
Access to the device requires proper permissions, so either use sudo or setup a
udev rule. Sample udev configuration can be found
link:https://developers.yubico.com/YubiHSM2/Component_Reference/yubihsm-connector/[here].
==== Generating HTML documentation
To build the HTML documentation, run:
$ uv run make -C docs/ html
The resulting output will be in docs/_build/html/.
==== Source releases for distribution
Build a source release:
$ uv build
The resulting .tar.gz and .whl will be created in `dist/`.
