Changelog¶

1.4.0 (2020-05-25)¶

Update libsodium to 1.0.18.
BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE: We no longer distribute 32-bit manylinux1 wheels. Continuing to produce them was a maintenance burden.
Added support for Python 3.8, and removed support for Python 3.4.
Add low level bindings for extracting the seed and the public key from crypto_sign_ed25519 secret key
Add low level bindings for deterministic random generation.
Add wheel and setuptools setup_requirements in setup.py (#485)
Fix checks on very slow builders (#481, #495)
Add low-level bindings to ed25519 arithmetic functions
Update low-level blake2b state implementation
Fix wrong short-input behavior of SealedBox.decrypt() (#517)
Raise CryptPrefixError exception instead of InvalidkeyError when trying to check a password against a verifier stored in a unknown format (#519)
Add support for minimal builds of libsodium. Trying to call functions not available in a minimal build will raise an UnavailableError exception. To compile a minimal build of the bundled libsodium, set the SODIUM_INSTALL_MINIMAL environment variable to any non-empty string (e.g. SODIUM_INSTALL_MINIMAL=1) for setup.

Added support for Python 3.7.
Update libsodium to 1.0.16.
Run and test all code examples in PyNaCl docs through sphinx’s doctest builder.
Add low-level bindings for chacha20-poly1305 AEAD constructions.
Add low-level bindings for the chacha20-poly1305 secretstream constructions.
Add low-level bindings for ed25519ph pre-hashed signing construction.
Add low-level bindings for constant-time increment and addition on fixed-precision big integers represented as little-endian byte sequences.
Add low-level bindings for the ISO/IEC 7816-4 compatible padding API.
Add low-level bindings for libsodium’s crypto_kx… key exchange construction.
Set hypothesis deadline to None in tests/test_pwhash.py to avoid incorrect test failures on slower processor architectures. GitHub issue #370

Update hypothesis minimum allowed version.
Infrastructure: add proper configuration for readthedocs builder runtime environment.

Update libsodium to 1.0.15.
Infrastructure: add jenkins support for automatic build of manylinux1 binary wheels
Added support for SealedBox construction.
Added support for argon2i and argon2id password hashing constructs and restructured high-level password hashing implementation to expose the same interface for all hashers.
Added support for 128 bit siphashx24 variant of siphash24.
Added support for from_seed APIs for X25519 keypair generation.
Dropped support for Python 3.3.

Dropped support for Python 2.6.
Added shared_key() method on Box.
You can now pass None to nonce when encrypting with Box or SecretBox and it will automatically generate a random nonce.
Added support for siphash24.
Added support for blake2b.
Added support for scrypt.
Update libsodium to 1.0.11.
Default to the bundled libsodium when compiling.
All raised exceptions are defined mixing-in nacl.exceptions.CryptoError

PyNaCl has been ported to use the new APIs available in cffi 1.0+. Due to this change we no longer support PyPy releases older than 2.6.
Python 3.2 support has been dropped.
Functions to convert between Ed25519 and Curve25519 keys have been added.

The low-level API (nacl.c.*) has been changed to match the upstream NaCl C/C++ conventions (as well as those of other NaCl bindings). The order of arguments and return values has changed significantly. To avoid silent failures, nacl.c has been removed, and replaced with nacl.bindings (with the new argument ordering). If you have code which calls these functions (e.g. nacl.c.crypto_box_keypair()), you must review the new docstrings and update your code/imports to match the new conventions.
