File encryption using XChaCha20-Poly1305 and Argon2id.
Project description
FileEncrypt
A simple Python package and CLI tool for encrypting files using XChaCha20-Poly1305 and Argon2id. FileEncrypt focus on security, simplicity and reliability. It uses the secure XChaCha20 cipher and Argon2id key derivation function to provide a high level of security.
Installation
Install locally (for development or pip install):
pip install .
Usage
As a CLI tool
After installation, you can use the CLI:
fileencrypt <input_file> <output_file> <password>
- If
<password>is omitted, you will be prompted securely. - Warning: Passing the password as a CLI argument may expose it to other users on the system (use with caution).
As a Python module
You can also use the encryption functionality in your own scripts:
from fileencrypt import encrypt_file
encrypt_file("input.txt", "output.enc", "your_password")
Decryption
A similar interface is available for decryption (see fileencrypt.decrypt_file).
