Command line interface to OpenSSL with Python3

Project description

# openssl-python

This tool is a command line interface to OpenSSL, written with Python3. It permits encrypting/decrypting files, as well as generating RSA keys, encrypting private RSA keys, signing files using an RSA key, and also verifying signatures using RSA.

## Dependencies

Before running this tool, the following dependency must be installed, as well as being on the path:

  • openssl

Usually, this dependency exists by default in most of the supported platforms(see below). In case it doesn’t, try consulting the official [OpenSSL documentation](https://www.openssl.org/docs/); or consult your operating system’ documentation on how to install new software.

## Usage

To launch openssl-python tool, just download the source code, and run the following command: ` python3 main.py ` Or alternatively, if python is in the path, run the following commands: ` chmod +x main.py ./main.py `

## Platform support

This tool was initially developed and tested on Linux systems, so it does also support Unix-like systems: BSDs, Mac OS… Windows support though is not guaranteed.
