imagecipher 0.0.2

ImageCipher is a Python library designed for encrypting and decrypting images, offering a secure way to handle image data through customizable cipher algorithms.

Image Cipher

ImageCipher is a Python library for encoding and decoding messages in images using steganography and optional encryption.

Installation 🚀

You can install ImageCipher using pip:

pip install imagecipher

Features ✨

• Encode text messages into images
• Decode messages from encoded images
• Optional encryption of messages before encoding
• Support for various image formats

Usage 📝

Here's a quick example of how to use ImageCipher:

from image_cipher import ImageCipher

# Create an instance of ImageCipher
cipher = ImageCipher()

# Encode a message
encoded_image_path = cipher.encode("original_image.png", "Secret message", encrypt=True)

# Decode a message
decoded_message = cipher.decode(encoded_image_path, key=cipher.key)

print(decoded_message)  # Output: Secret message

API Reference 📘

ImageCipher class

encode(image_path, message, encrypt=True)

Encodes a message into an image.

• image_path (str): The path to the input image file.
• message (str): The message to be encoded.
• encrypt (bool, optional): Whether to encrypt the message. Defaults to True.

Returns:

• str: The path to the output encoded image file.

decode(image_path, key=None)

Decodes a message from an encoded image.

• image_path (str): The path to the input encoded image file.
• key (str, optional): The encryption key for decryption. Required if the message was encrypted.

Returns:

• str: The decoded message.

Requirements 🛠️

• Python 3.6+
• Pillow (PIL)
• cryptography
