encryptedfile 1.1.1

Usage

Use it by itself:

from encryptedfile import EncryptedFile
f = EncryptedFile("hello.gpg", passphrase=getpass.getpass(),
                  encryption_algo=EncryptedFile.ALGO_AES256)
f.write("super secret message")
f.close()

Or with something passed through it:

from encryptedfile import EncryptedFile
import PIL
img = ... # obtain image somehow
f = EncryptedFile("pic.png.gpg", passphrase=getpass.getpass(),
                  encryption_algo=EncryptedFile.ALGO_BLOWFISH)
img.save(f, "png")

Or use it in a PEP-343 block:

from encryptedfile import EncryptedFile
with EncryptedFile("txt.gpg", passphrase=getpass.getpass()) as f:
     ... use f ...

Decrypt

Let’s say we’re using gpg:

gpg filename

Supply the right passphrase, and tada!

FAQ

• Do you support reading?

No, reading would mean supporting the bajillion ways that OpenPGP files have been created throughout history. That would be a pain. I may at some point in time support reading well enough to be able to read whatever written by this module.
