Description: Python http-signature
        =====================
        
        Sign http requests with secure signatures.
        
        Requirements
        ------------
        
        * PyCrypto
        
        Optional:
        
        * requests
        
        Usage
        -----
        
        for simple raw signing::
        
            import http_signature
            
            sig_maker = http_signature.Signer(secret='test.pem', algorithm='rsa-sha256')
            sig_maker.sign('hello world!')
        
        for use with requests::
        
            import json
            import requests
            from http_signature.requests_auth import HTTPSignatureAuth
            
            auth = HTTPSignatureAuth(key_id='Test', secret='test.pem')
            z = requests.get('https://api.joyentcloud.com/my/packages/Small+1GB', 
                                     auth=auth, headers={'X-Api-Version': '~6.5'})
        
        class initialization parameters
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        ::
        
            http_signature.Signer(secret='', algorithm='rsa-sha256')
        
        ``secret``, in the case of an rsa signature, is a path to a private RSA pem file. In the case of an hmac, it is a secret password.  
        ``algorithm`` is one of the six allowed signatures: ``rsa-sha1``, ``rsa-sha256``, ``rsa-sha512``, ``hmac-sha1``, ``hmac-sha256``, 
        ``hmac-sha512``.
        
        ::
        
            http_signature.requests_auth.HTTPSignatureAuth(key_id='', secret='', algorithm='rsa-sha256', headers=None)
        
        ``key_id`` is the label by which the server system knows your RSA signature or password.  
        ``headers`` is the list of HTTP headers that are concatenated and used as signing objects. By default it is the specification's minimum, the ``Date`` HTTP header.  
        ``secret`` and ``algorithm`` are as above.
