## How `opencce` differs…
* `opencce` is written in Python and uses only widely available libraries including `openssl`.
* `opencce` is Open Source. Please feel free to look at the code.
* `opencce` **cannot** currently use your Citizen Card (_ecard_) to perform cryptographic operations.
* `opencce` **can** be used as a library or through its command-line interface.
However, as far as I can tell, `opencce` is able to decrypt containers produced by the original software. It also produces files that are fully compatible with the original. **If you encounter a case where this is not true, please file an issue!**
### Dependencies
* [python](http://python.org) (>= 2.7)
* [python-m2crypto](https://github.com/martinpaljak/M2Crypto)
* [lxml](http://lxml.de)
* [python-magic](https://github.com/ahupp/python-magic) (optional)
### About python3
The main blocker for getting python3 compatibility is `m2crypto`.
### Installation
Get the latest version with `pip install opencce`.
### Future Plans
* Smart Card support.
* Compressed archive variant (SMIME is horrible for space efficiency).
* Install scripts, package for distributions.
### Usage
#### Encryption using `opencce`
$ opencce encrypt -c certificate.pem another_certificate.cer -- file1.txt file.pdf
Adding certificate: certificate.pem ... [OK]
Adding certificate: another_certificate.cer ... [OK]
Adding file: file1.txt ... [OK]
Adding file: file.pdf ... [OK]
Encrypting to Container.cce ... [OK]
#### Encryption using the Library
>>> from opencce.containers.CCEContainer import CCEContainer
>>> c = CCEContainer()
>>> c.add("file1.txt")
>>> c.add("file.pdf")
>>> c.add_recipient_certificate("certificate.pem")
>>> c.add_recipient_certificate("another_certificate.cer")
>>> with open("Container.cce", "wb") as fh: fh.write(c.encrypt())
#### Decryption using `opencce`
$ opencce decrypt -k key.pem -d Container Container.cce
Decrypting container: Container.cce ... [OK]
Making sure that the extraction directory is clean: . ... [OK]
Extracting file: Container/file1.txt ... [OK]
Extracting file: Container/file.pdf ... [OK]
#### Decryption using the Library
>>> from opencce.containers.CCEContainer import CCEContainer
>>> with open("Container.cce", "rb") as fh: c = CCEContainer.load(fh, "key.pem")
>>> for path, filename, handle in c.export(): # do something with those files
