# qGPG
|
|
|
|
Slightly easier encryption using private/public key pairs
|
|
|
|
Depends on python-gnupg, and gpg
|
|
|
|
Install with pip or pipx, from packaged url, or straight from repository:
|
|
|
|
- https://six9.net/py/qgpg/current.tar.gz
|
|
- git+https://bitbucket.org/MoonQ/qgpg
|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
- Generate keys:
|
|
- `qgpg --keygen --key ./path/mykey --name "user@name"`
|
|
- This will create private and public keys, mykey and mykey.pub
|
|
- Share the public key to someone who will encrypt data to you
|
|
- Encrypt file:
|
|
- `qgpg --encrypt --key ./mykey.pub ./plain_file.txt ./encrypted_file.txt.gpg`
|
|
- Encrypt all files recursively in a folder:
|
|
- `qgpg --key ./mykey.pub -r --encrypt ./in_folder/`
|
|
- `qgpg --key ./mykey.pub -r --encrypt ./from_folder/ ./to_another_folder/`
|
|
- Decrypt all files with the private key:
|
|
- `qgpg --key ./mykey -r --decrypt ./encrypted_folder/`
|
|
- Using passhprase in a variable:
|
|
- `GPGPASS=mysecretpassword qgpg --key ./mykey --decrypt file.gpg file.txt`
|
|
- Symmetric encryption:
|
|
- `GPGPASS=mysecretpassword qgpg --encrypt file.txt file.gpg`
