From source (ssdeep library must be already installed):

python setup.py build

sudo python setup.py install

Usage

Methods:

• pydeep.hash_buf / pydeep.hash_bytes - returns the ssdeep hash for a given buffer
• pydeep.hash_file - returns the ssdeep hash for filepath
• pydeep.compare - returns the % match between 2 hashes

Example:

import pydeep
hash1 = pydeep.hash_buf('somedata')
hash2 = pydeep.hash_file('/path/to/file')
pydeep.compare(hash1, hash2)
