## Why Another Python ASN.1 Library?
|
|
|
|
Python has long had the [pyasn1](https://pypi.org/project/pyasn1/) and
|
|
[pyasn1_modules](https://pypi.org/project/pyasn1-modules/) available for
|
|
parsing and serializing ASN.1 structures. While the project does include a
|
|
comprehensive set of tools for parsing and serializing, the performance of the
|
|
library can be very poor, especially when dealing with bit fields and parsing
|
|
large structures such as CRLs.
|
|
|
|
After spending extensive time using *pyasn1*, the following issues were
|
|
identified:
|
|
|
|
1. Poor performance
|
|
2. Verbose, non-pythonic API
|
|
3. Out-dated and incomplete definitions in *pyasn1-modules*
|
|
4. No simple way to map data to native Python data structures
|
|
5. No mechanism for overridden universal ASN.1 types
|
|
|
|
The *pyasn1* API is largely method driven, and uses extensive configuration
|
|
objects and lowerCamelCase names. There were no consistent options for
|
|
converting types of native Python data structures. Since the project supports
|
|
out-dated versions of Python, many newer language features are unavailable
|
|
for use.
|
|
|
|
Time was spent trying to profile issues with the performance, however the
|
|
architecture made it hard to pin down the primary source of the poor
|
|
performance. Attempts were made to improve performance by utilizing unreleased
|
|
patches and delaying parsing using the `Any` type. Even with such changes, the
|
|
performance was still unacceptably slow.
|
|
|
|
Finally, a number of structures in the cryptographic space use universal data
|
|
types such as `BitString` and `OctetString`, but interpret the data as other
|
|
types. For instance, signatures are really byte strings, but are encoded as
|
|
`BitString`. Elliptic curve keys use both `BitString` and `OctetString` to
|
|
represent integers. Parsing these structures as the base universal types and
|
|
then re-interpreting them wastes computation.
|
|
|
|
*asn1crypto* uses the following techniques to improve performance, especially
|
|
when extracting one or two fields from large, complex structures:
|
|
|
|
- Delayed parsing of byte string values
|
|
- Persistence of original ASN.1 encoded data until a value is changed
|
|
- Lazy loading of child fields
|
|
- Utilization of high-level Python stdlib modules
|
|
|
|
While there is no extensive performance test suite, the
|
|
`CRLTests.test_parse_crl` test case was used to parse a 21MB CRL file on a
|
|
late 2013 rMBP. *asn1crypto* parsed the certificate serial numbers in just
|
|
under 8 seconds. With *pyasn1*, using definitions from *pyasn1-modules*, the
|
|
same parsing took over 4,100 seconds.
|
|
|
|
For smaller structures the performance difference can range from a few times
|
|
faster to an order of magnitude or more.
|
|
|

|
|

|
|
|
|
## Testing
|
|
|
|
Tests are written using `unittest` and require no third-party packages.
|
|
|
|
Depending on what type of source is available for the package, the following
|
|
commands can be used to run the test suite.
|
|
|
|
### Git Repository
|
|
|
|
When working within a Git working copy, or an archive of the Git repository,
|
|
the full test suite is run via:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python run.py tests
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To run only some tests, pass a regular expression as a parameter to `tests`.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python run.py tests ocsp
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### PyPi Source Distribution
|
|
|
|
When working within an extracted source distribution (aka `.tar.gz`) from
|
|
PyPi, the full test suite is run via:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python setup.py test
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Package
|
|
|
|
When the package has been installed via pip (or another method), the package
|
|
`asn1crypto_tests` may be installed and invoked to run the full test suite:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pip install asn1crypto_tests
|
|
python -m asn1crypto_tests
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Development
|
|
|
|
To install the package used for linting, execute:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pip install --user -r requires/lint
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The following command will run the linter:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python run.py lint
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Support for code coverage can be installed via:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pip install --user -r requires/coverage
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Coverage is measured by running:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python run.py coverage
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To change the version number of the package, run:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python run.py version {pep440_version}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To install the necessary packages for releasing a new version on PyPI, run:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pip install --user -r requires/release
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Releases are created by:
|
|
|
|
- Making a git tag in [PEP 440](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0440/#examples-of-compliant-version-schemes) format
|
|
- Running the command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python run.py release
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Existing releases can be found at https://pypi.org/project/asn1crypto/.
|
|
|
|
## CI Tasks
|
|
|
|
A task named `deps` exists to download and stage all necessary testing
|
|
dependencies. On posix platforms, `curl` is used for downloads and on Windows
|
|
PowerShell with `Net.WebClient` is used. This configuration sidesteps issues
|
|
related to getting pip to work properly and messing with `site-packages` for
|
|
the version of Python being used.
|
|
|
|
The `ci` task runs `lint` (if flake8 is available for the version of Python) and
|
|
`coverage` (or `tests` if coverage is not available for the version of Python).
|
|
If the current directory is a clean git working copy, the coverage data is
|
|
submitted to codecov.io.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python run.py deps
|
|
python run.py ci
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
