# gocryptfs-tool

A simple Python 3 script to access a gocryptfs filesystem (without gocryptfs itself) and carry on some useful operations like:

```

ls       list virtual file system files and directories in decrypted form, with true size and times

decrypt  decrypt a file or directory into a given destination

alias    show the real pathname linked to a virtual one

backup   backup the Directory IVs (required to decrypt names) in a ZIP file

```

Passing a couple options, you can show you master key or recover it in case configuration files are corrupted:

`--print-key [a85 | b64]` shows the decrypted master key in ASCII85 or BASE64 form, to annotate it in a safe place for recovering purposes

`--master-key`  grants access to your files even in case of lost configuration file `gocryptfs.conf` , provided the master key in ASCII85 or BASE64 form

`EMENames`, `AESSIV`, `XChaCha20Poly1305`, `PlaintextNames` and `LongNames` are supported filesystem options among others.

Functionality was tested with cppcryptfs 1.4.4.4 (Windows 11) and gocryptfs 2.4.0 (Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Linux under Windows WSL).

It's pure Python 3, with pycryptodome addon.
