pycryptomator

A simple Python 3 script to access a Cryptomator V8 vault and carry on some useful operations.

usage: cryptomator.py [-h] [--init] [--print-keys [{a85,b64,words}]] [--master-keys PRIMARY_KEY HMAC_KEY]
                      [--password PASSWORD] [--change-password]
                      vault_name

Access to a Cryptomator V8 vault

positional arguments:
  vault_name            Location of the existing Cryptomator V8 vault to open

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --init                Initialize a new vault in an empty directory
  --print-keys [{a85,b64,words}]
                        Print the raw master keys as a list of English words for Cryptomator (default), in ASCII85
                        (a85) or BASE64 (b64) format
  --master-keys PRIMARY_KEY HMAC_KEY
                        Primary and HMAC master keys in ASCII85 or BASE64 format, or - - to read a words list from
                        standard input
  --password PASSWORD   Password to unlock master keys stored in config file
  --change-password     Change the password required to open the vault

After the vauly_name, you can specify some useful operations like:

ls       list unecrypted vault contents (with size and time)
decrypt  decrypt a file or directory from the vault's virtual filesystem into a given destination
encrypt  encrypt a file or directory
makedirs create a new directory/tree in the vault
alias    show the real pathname linked to a virtual one
backup   backup the Directory IDs (required to decrypt names) in a ZIP file

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

--print-keys shows the decrypted primary and hmac master key in ASCII85 or BASE64 form, or as a list of English words like Cryptomator itself, to annotate them in a safe place for recovering purposes.

--master-keys grants access to the vault even in case of lost configuration files vault.cryptomator and/or masterkey.cryptomator, provided the master keys as ASCII85 or BASE64 strings; - - can be used to read the words list from standard input.

Functionality was tested in Windows 11 and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Linux (under Windows WSL).

It's pure Python 3, with pycryptodome addon.
