I can create random salt using PHP and it works great. Below is my php code
$random_salt = hash('sha512', uniqid(openssl_random_pseudo_bytes(16), TRUE));
this generate 128 character like below
647366c3950b5fa89d6c71eaa9933c0e8cdf3e09b903641db41fdfe2591cef92aac46cc7b3b36c664bdbe4544aa24476eecbe19b21317c733e970998563e6a50
How can i achieve that in Python?

Here is the solution what you want in python
import uuid
import hashlib
def random_salt():
s = uuid.uuid4().hex
s = hashlib.sha512(str(s).encode('utf-8')).hexdigest()
return s
print(random_salt())
example output
aa8434ae552feb1421ec4a4a7273b10d3daebf15eaf0620cc61ce1e5d8bd3439f3ab0b23c7048bfa95071fc20c6244269fbfab68af024b6b3d30e393e31209e1
this will generate unique salt in 128 character every time
