Hi,

I'm proud to announce bcryptor; a wrapper for bcrypt, the password-
hashing algorithm used in OpenBSD.

bcryptor substitutes to bcryptWrap, which has been already deleted
from PyPi. bcryptor uses a better directory structure and API names.

For more information read at <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/bcryptor/>

The source code is at <http://www.bitbucket.org/ares/bcryptor/>

To install run:

  $ sudo easy_install bcryptor

and to use it, its API is very simple:

>>> import bcryptor

>>> bcrypt = bcryptor.Bcrypt()
>>> hash = bcrypt.create('crack my pass')

And to validate:

>>> bcrypt.valid('crack my pass', hash)
True
>>> bcrypt.valid('Crack my pass', hash)
False
