Obfuscator

Utility to obfuscate Python code

Installation

pip install localstack-obfuscator

Usage

You need to have a config file in the project you want to obfuscate.

An example config file is given below:

custom_patches: false # if true, will use custom patches for dataclasses. Default is false.

# custom parameters for python_minifier
minify:
  remove_literal_statements: true

# list of files to exclude from obfuscation
exclude:
  - "constants.py"
  - "routes.py"

# list of files to remove from resulting build
remove:
  - ".venv"
  - "build"

target_dir: "outages" # relative to the build directory. The default is the same as current dir name
build_dir: "build" # relative to the current dir. The default is "build".
modify_in_place: false # Modify the code in the source directory directly. Overrides the target_dir/build_dir options. The default is False.

Note that the exclude and remove lists perform different functions:

• The exclusion works on a per-file basis and is for files that should be kept in the package but not obfuscated.
• The removal is for files and directories that should not be in the final build at all. This is, e.g., useful for the virtual environment directory or the build directory itself. It also improves the performance because the files are not even copied to the build directory in the first place.

To perform the obfuscation, run the obfuscator against the project directory.
