import imaginenc

Encode file name and save as image

imaginenc.encode_file_name(
    input_file_path='imaginenc/imaginenc.py',
    output_file_path='images',
    sign='signature'
)

Encode file bytes and return image

with open('imaginenc/imaginenc.py') as f:
    image = imaginenc.encode_bytes_to_image(
        input_file_bytes=f.read(),
        file_name=f.name(),
        sign='signature'
    )

Decode image name and save as original file

metadata = imaginenc.decode_image_name(
    input_file_path='images/imaginenc.py.png',
    output_file_path='output'
)

Decode PIL image to original file bytes

from PIL import Image

image = Image.open('images/imaginenc.py.png')
file_bytes, metadata = imaginenc.decode_image_to_bytes(
    image=image
)
