usage
beefish can be used to encrypt and decrypt file-like objects:
from beefish import encrypt, decrypt # encrypting with open('secrets.txt') as fh: with open('secrets.enc', 'wb') as out_fh: encrypt(fh, out_fh, 'secret p@ssword') # decrypting with open('secrets.enc') as fh: with open('secrets.dec', 'wb') as out_fh: decrypt(fh, out_fh, 'secret p@ssword')
you can use a shortcut if you like:
# encrypting encrypt_file('secrets.txt', 'secrets.enc', 'p@ssword') # decrypting decrypt_file('secrets.enc', 'secrets.dec', 'p@ssword')
you can use it from the command-line:
beefish.py -e secrets.txt secrets.enc beefish.py -d secrets.enc secrets.dec
