Direction to take for XML digital signature generation/verification #1
Comments
Answering my own question. I'm now using dm.xmlsec.binding which installs nicely with pip so avoiding the problems listed above. (But not on travis because of missing libxmlsec package). I haven't got to signing xml documents yet but I have it working to sign the query string (as required). |
Hi @darrylcousins , I released a SAML toolkit for python: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-saml It works perfect on Ubuntu but people have problems installing it in RedHat/Fedora: Did you experience similar issues? I think the problem is related with lxml. |
Hi @pitbulk, sorry for the delayed reply. I don't have anything new to add to your issue 30. This project has had a brief start and is hanging at the moment in partial development state. I'm developing on osx and like you I have no problems with We use As an aside and probably not related, I did have troubles with installing Furthermore, I did have a look at I hope this helps somewhat. Many thanks, |
Closing this issue. The code is now using python-saml. |
Hi,
This project is chiefly a migration of Authen-NZRealMe.
I have been porting the perl code in a TDD manner using doctests. The point I'm at is the creation of the AuthnRequest. This xml request needs to be signed.
In Authen-NZRealMe this is handled by the module XMLSig.
I looked at the python package xmldsig and it seems that this is what I want to do (with adjustments to the template):
But to use this library, I need to have installed two Python modules:
pip install xmlsec
went fine but not so forlibxml2
orlibxml2-python
.After a bit of research I easily installed libxml2.
I'm not even sure that xmldsig will do what I need it to do but I suspect it will.
The question is to make a choice between going with xmldsig and the installation problems with libxml2 or to pursue the option of porting XMLSig.
I'm undecided whether I should take the
xmlsig
approach in preference to portingXMLSig
. Or otherwise.Thoughts?
Relevant issue: I can't work out how to build
libxml2
