Tomber: a Python wrapper for Tomb

Found in extras/tomber

Description

Tomber is a python wrapper for Tomb. It relies on Python's subprocess module for Tomb command execution.

Please note that for future compatibility with Tomb, using subprocess execution of the tomb script is the recommended way to wrap its functionalities in other languages.

Tomber is still under development. Any contributions are greatly welcomed here or on its original repository https://github.com/reiven/tomber

Installation

First of all Tomb must be installed. Refer to INSTALL

Then Tomber can be installed from PyPi using pip.

Enter the following command in a terminal:

pip install tomber

Alternatively you can install it from this source repository

Example usage

from tomber import *

# dig a tomb of 20mb
tdig('test.tomb',20)

# forge a key
tforge('test.key', 'this is the passphrase for the key')

# lock the tomb
tlock('test.tomb', 'test.key', 'this is the passphrase for the key')

# open the tomb
topen('test.tomb', 'test.key', 'this is the passphrase for the key', '/tmp/tomb')

# close the tomb
tclose('test')

Running tests

Keep in mind that the included test.py file execute the Tomb.slam() command which will likely close any tombs, encrypted volumes, you may have open.
