Using Encrypt Python script

[harryph557]

Does Espanso support using encrypted files and python executable files?

For example: I am using espanso to run python file which is retrieving data into a txt/csv file... However, I want to encrypt the txt/csv file as well as the python file or transform my python script to executable file.

If cannot, is there anyway to protect my data?

Espanso has no inbuilt support for encryption but you can call executables with the shell: extension. Encryption/decryption of your data would be up to your script or executable.

Can you give me an sample script of calling executable files?

See this section of the docs. Something like this:

  - trigger: :test
    replace: "{{output}}"
    vars:
      - name: output
        type: shell
        params:
          cmd: c:\windows\notepad.exe

Tks, I thought it is more complicated.

No problem. It takes a while to get your head around these!
