Common errors

error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pyrage' ↓

cause pyrage not installed or installed in wrong environment.

fix

Run pip install pyrage. Ensure you're in the correct virtual environment.

error AttributeError: module 'pyrage' has no attribute 'encrypt' ↓

cause Wrong import path. `encrypt` is a top-level function, not under a submodule.

fix

Use from pyrage import encrypt or import pyrage; pyrage.encrypt(...)

Warnings

gotcha The `encrypt` and `decrypt` functions expect bytes, not strings. Provide bytes-like objects. ↓

fix Encode strings with `.encode()` before encrypting; decode with `.decode()` after decrypting.

deprecated Python 3.8 support dropped in v1.2.2. Requires Python >=3.9. ↓

fix Upgrade to Python 3.9+.

Quickstart

Key generation, encryption, and decryption with pyrage.

from pyrage import x25519
from pyrage import encrypt, decrypt

# Generate a key
keys = x25519.Identity.generate()
print("Identity (secret):", str(keys))
print("Recipient (public):", str(keys.to_public()))

# Encrypt a message
plaintext = b"Hello, age!"
recipients = [keys.to_public()]
encrypted = encrypt(plaintext, recipients)
print("Encrypted:", encrypted)

# Decrypt
identities = [keys]
decrypted = decrypt(encrypted, identities)
print("Decrypted:", decrypted)
