* Package name : python-pyhanko
* URL : https://github.com/MatthiasValvekens/pyHanko
* License : Expat
Programming Lang: Python
Description : Validates X.509 certificates and paths
The pyHanko library roughly consists of the following components.
* The pyhanko.pdf_utils package, which is essentially a (gutted and heavily modified) fork of
PyPDF2, with various additions to support the kind of low-level operations that pyHanko needs to
support its various signing and validation workflows.
* The pyhanko.sign package, which implements the general signature API supplied
by pyHanko.
* The pyhanko.stamp module, which implements the signature appearance rendering & stamping
functionality.
* The pyhanko.keys module with utilities to handle key and certificate loading.
* Support subpackages to handle CLI and configuration: pyhanko.config and pyhanko.cli. These mostly
consist of very thin wrappers around library functionality, and shouldn’t really be considered
public API, except for the parts used in the plugin system.
The library is needed for xhtml2pdf to update to a newer version.
