  • rpgp: Pure Rust Implementation of OpenPGP

    I agree that gpg did not age well. If we compare it to a different project with similar history: curl, it's apparent that gpg chose wrong on several fronts. It should be a library first instead of a cli tool. Funny part is that even the library of gpg (gpgme) is internally calling the binary.

    I've played around with designing a higher level library to OpenPGP once (https://pypi.org/project/pysequoia/) and personally I think it yields more readable, faster and secure code.

    I'd also recommend PyO3 and Maturin. The amount of help these crates give is mind boggling (automatic type marshaling and even github CI jobs for creating cross platform precompiled wheels).

    I've created a library using this crate (https://github.com/wiktor-k/pysequoia/) and most of the time I could just focus on the problem domain instead of technical details of the bindings.

    There are just a couple of smaller issues (eg. Python to Rust async is not built in) but overall it's really nice.
