Exactly how this comparison is executed may depend on the application domain, e.g. whether it should be case-insensitive or not. It may be also necessary to restrict the possible identifications, to allow only identifications consisting of “printable” characters.</p> <p><span class="target" id="index-0"></span><a class="rfc reference external" href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3454.html"><strong>RFC 3454</strong></a> defines a procedure for “preparing” Unicode strings in internet protocols. Before passing strings onto the wire, they are processed with the preparation procedure, after which they have a certain normalized form. The RFC defines a set of tables, which can be combined into profiles. Each profile must define which tables it uses, and what other optional parts of the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">stringprep</span></tt> procedure are part of the profile. One example of a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">stringprep</span></tt> profile is <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">nameprep</span></tt>, which is used for internationalized domain names.</p> <p>The module <a class="reference internal" href="#module-stringprep" title="stringprep: String preparation, as per RFC 3453 (deprecated)"><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">stringprep</span></tt></a> only exposes the tables from RFC 3454. As these tables would be very large to represent them as dictionaries or lists, the module uses the Unicode character database internally. The module source code itself was generated using the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">mkstringprep.py</span></tt> utility.</p> <p>As a result, these tables are exposed as functions, not as data structures. There are two kinds of tables in the RFC: sets and mappings. For a set, <a class="reference internal" href="#module-stringprep" title="stringprep: String preparation, as per RFC 3453 (deprecated)"><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">stringprep</span></tt></a> provides the “characteristic function”, i.e. a function that returns true if the parameter is part of the set. For mappings, it provides the mapping function: given the key, it returns the associated value. Below is a list of all functions available in the module.</p> <dl class="function"> <dt id="stringprep.in_table_a1"> <tt class="descclassname">stringprep.</tt><tt
