| Hi, The hashlib module could provide a tuple offering the names of the different hash algorithms which are guaranteed to be supported. The expected result: >>> import hashlib >>> hashlib.algorithms ('md5', 'sha1', 'sha224', 'sha256', 'sha384', 'sha512') Here is a patch to do so. It also provides an update for the hashlib documentation and a test case. Bye, Carl Chenet |

| I guess you missed the quotes. $ ./python foo.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "foo.py", line 2, in from hashlib import * TypeError: attribute name must be string, not 'tuple' |

| Hi, Maybe you have some ideas on this patch? I think it could be a nice feature e.g in my app I need to support every hash algorithms available so with optparse module it is possible to write something like : for __hashtype in ('md5', 'sha1', 'sha224','sha256','sha384','sha512'): __parser.add_option('--{}'.format(__hashtype), dest='hashtype', action='store_const', const='{}'.format(__hashtype), help='use the {} hash algorithm type'.format(__hashtype)) __options, _ = __parser.parse_args() And it would be better if this tuple could be provided by the hashlib module itself, making the code more evolutive. |

| I'll be taking a look at this patch during the sprints at Pycon. Will get back to you soonish :-) |

| Could the module also grow an attribute listing all available algos, or non-guaranteed algos? (Please tell me if I should open a new report.) |

| Thanks for the reply. Reopening. I cannot propose a patch since I don’t know how to introspect OpenSSL (or how to write C, for that matter). |
