Example: Crypt2.GenRandomBytesENC method

Shows how to use the GenRandomBytesENC method to generate a specified number of random bytes and return them as a binary encoded string, such as in base64 or hex format. CkPython

import chilkat

crypt = chilkat.CkCrypt2()

# Example of a some of the binary encodings supported by Chilkat.

# Internally uses the Fortuna cryptographically secure random number generation algorithm
# auto-seeded from a secure source of entropy that depends on the OS.

crypt.put_EncodingMode("hex")
s = crypt.genRandomBytesENC(8)
print("Uppercase Hex: " + s)

crypt.put_EncodingMode("hex_lower")
s = crypt.genRandomBytesENC(8)
print("Lowercase Hex: " + s)

crypt.put_EncodingMode("base64")
s = crypt.genRandomBytesENC(8)
print("Base64: " + s)

crypt.put_EncodingMode("base64url")
s = crypt.genRandomBytesENC(8)
print("Base64Url: " + s)

crypt.put_EncodingMode("base58")
s = crypt.genRandomBytesENC(8)
print("Base58: " + s)

crypt.put_EncodingMode("base32")
s = crypt.genRandomBytesENC(8)
print("Base32: " + s)

crypt.put_EncodingMode("decList")
s = crypt.genRandomBytesENC(8)
print("Decimal List: " + s)

# Sample Output:

# Uppercase Hex: 1BA0E87915C3B429
# Lowercase Hex: 1e1638a1c7996c58
# Base64: 1lV0I/su5lg=
# Base64Url: Zq7DU0nukLk
# Base58: foUVWUjAT6e
# Base32: LHV5RV4HRCLW2===
# Decimal List: 168,55,214,82,93,154,191,164
