Mohawk

Latest PyPI release PyPI monthly download stats Travis master branch status Documentation status

Mohawk is an alternate Python implementation of the Hawk HTTP authorization scheme.

Hawk lets two parties securely communicate with each other using messages signed by a shared key. It is based on HTTP MAC access authentication (which was based on parts of OAuth 1.0).

The Mohawk API is a little different from that of the Node library (i.e. the living Hawk spec). It was redesigned to be more intuitive to developers, less prone to security problems, and more Pythonic.
