# Decoder++

An extensible application for penetration testers and software developers to decode/encode data into various formats.

## Setup

To install ```Decoder++``` simply use ```pip```:

```bash
# Install using pip (latest:qt6)
pip3 install decoder-plus-plus[qt6]

# Install using pip (backport:qt5)
pip3 install decoder-plus-plus[qt5]
```

Note, that this will install ```Decoder++``` and the most common plugins.
In order to install and use all available plugins the package ```decoder-plus-plus[extras]``` needs to be installed:
```
pip3 install decoder-plus-plus[extras]
```

Please refer to the [Installation Guide](docs/INSTALL.md) for more information regarding individual setups. 

## Overview

This section provides an overview about the individual ways of interacting with
```Decoder++```. For additional usage information check out the ```Advanced Usage``` section.

### Graphical User Interface

The graphical user interface provides two distinct interaction modes:
a ```main-window-mode``` and a ```dialog-mode```.

![Decoder++ Screenshot](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bytebutcher/decoder-plus-plus/master/images/dpp-preview-001.png)

While the ```main-window-mode``` supports tabbing, the ```dialog-mode``` has the ability to return the transformed 
content to ```stdout``` ready for further processing. 
As a result ```Decoder++``` can enhance other tools/scripts 
by providing a graphical user interface for flexible transformation of any input.

### Command Line

In addition to the graphical user interface Decoder++ also provides a command line interface:
```bash
$ dpp -e base64 -h sha1 "Hello, world!"

## Advanced Usage

This section provides additional information about how the command line interface can be used.

### Command Line Interface

The commandline interface gives easy access to all available codecs.

To list them the ```-l``` argument can be used. To narrow down the search 
the ```-l``` argument accepts additional parameters which work as filter:

```bash
$ dpp -l base enc

Codec                 Type
-----                 ----
base16                encoder
base32                encoder
base64                encoder

```
```Decoder++``` distinguishes between encoders, decoders, hashers and scripts.
Like the graphical user interface the command line interface allows the usage of multiple codecs in a row:
```bash
$ dpp "H4sIAAXmeVsC//NIzcnJ11Eozy/KSVEEAObG5usNAAAA" -d base64 -d gzip
Hello, world!
```

While encoders, decoders and hashers can be used right away, some scripts may require additional configuration.
To show all available options of a specific script add the ```help``` parameter:
```
$ dpp "Hello, world!" -s split_and_rejoin help

Split & Rejoin
==============

             Name  Value  Group            Required  Description
             ----  -----  -----            --------  -----------
   split_by_chars         split_behaviour  yes       the chars used at which to split the text
  split_by_length  0      split_behaviour  yes       the length used at which to split the text
rejoin_with_chars                          yes       the chars used to join the splitted text

```

To configure a specific script the individual options need to be supplied as name-value pairs (e.g. ```search_term="Hello"```):

```
$ dpp "Hello, world!" -s search_and_replace search_term="Hello" replace_term="Hey"
Hey, world!
```

## Troubleshooting

### Signals are not working on Mac OS

When starting ```Decoder++``` in Mac OS signals are not working.

This might happen when ```PyQt6``` is installed using homebrew. 

### Can not start Decoder++ in Windows using CygWin

When starting ```Decoder++``` in ```CygWin``` an error occurs:
```
  ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PyQt6'
```

This might happen even if ```PyQt6``` is installed using pip. 
Currently there is no fix for that. Instead it is recommended
to start ```Decoder++``` using the Windows command line.

### No Module PyQt6 

When starting ```Decoder++``` the error ```No module named 'PyQt6.sig'``` is displayed on the console. 
This may happen when there are competing versions of PyQt6 installed. Reinstalling PyQt6 should fix this error.

```
$ sudo pip3 uninstall PyQt6
$ sudo pip3 install PyQt6
```

### Missing Qt6 libraries

At least in Ubuntu 22.04 it might be necessary to install the following packages using ```apt```:

```
apt install libqt6core6 libqt6network6 libqt6openglwidgets6 libqt6widgets6
```

### X11-forwarding fails

In order to run dpp inside a container/virtual machine you may need to install the 
```qt6-qpa-plugins``` inside the container/virtual machine and configure the 
```QT_QPA_PLATFORM_PLUGIN_PATH``` accordingly:

```
apt install qt6-qpa-plugins
export QT_QPA_PLATFORM_PLUGIN_PATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt6/plugins/platforms/
``` 

See the <a href="https://github.com/bytebutcher/decoder-plus-plus/tree/master/docker">Docker build and run scripts</a> for more information regarding how to build and run a Decoder++ Docker container.
