# This example generates a new mnemonic using iota_wallet library.

# This step is not necessary since in the following examples is an "example" seed provided.

# However, if you want to try this workshop with the Firefly wallet, you may want to use this example file.

# In that case, import the generated Mnemonic in the Firefly wallet and replace Seed values in the following exercises

# with the generated Seed.

# YOU SHOULD NEVER TRUST 3RD PARTY TOOLS/PROGRAMS WITH YOUR SEED/MNEMONIC!

# USE THE PRIVATE KEYS GENERATED BY THIS EXAMPLE ONLY IN THIS WORKSHOP!

# IN PRACTISE, NEVER STORE YOUR PRIVATE KEYS IN YOUR CODE. USE ENVIROMENT VARIABLES!

import hashlib

import unicodedata

import iota_wallet

# Creates an AccountManager class from iota_wallet library to generate a mnemonic

mnemonic = iota_wallet.AccountManager(storage_path='./storage').generate_mnemonic()

# iota_wallet's AccountManager creates its own ./storage folder. We won't need it for this workshop

# since we will be using iota_client, that uses Seed instead of Accounts stored in Stronghold.

# Feel free to remove that folder if it was created BY THIS WORKSHOP (not by you or your applications)
