Installation
$ pip install steg
Usage in Code
# Import library
from steg import steg_img
# Hiding
# Select your payload and carrier files
s = steg_img.IMG(payload_path=<payload path>, image_path=<carrier path>)
# Create a new image containing your payload
s.hide()
# Extracting
# Select the carrier image
s_prime = steg_img.IMG(image_path=<path of containing hidden payload>)
# Extract the payload
s_prime.extract()
Commandline Usage
- Make the steg.py file executable
$ chmod +x _steg.py
- To hide a payload in an image:
$ ./_steg.py -c <your image file> -p <your payload>
