A no-code toolkit has been released that allows for hiding code in Python scripts. The transformed script appears in code editors as a single line `# coding: no` without any other content, yet it still runs and performs its previous functions. The toolkit was inspired by the humorous philosophy of No Code, which posits that the best way to write secure and reliable applications is to have no code at all. While this philosophy has merit, sometimes programs need to perform actions. No-code addresses this issue and enables the distribution of 'code-free' programs that can still execute actions. <\/p>\n
The hiding method is based on encoding content using two Unicode characters with zero width (non-breaking spaces 0x200B and 0x200C). One invisible character corresponds to `0`, and the other to `1`. $ cat some_code.py print(`Hello, world!`) $ no_code some_code.py > no_code.py $ cat no_code.py # coding: no \u200b\u200b\u200c\u200c\u200b\u200c\u200b\u200c\u200b\u200b\u200d\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b $ python no_code.py Hello, world! $ yes_code no_code.py > some_code.py $ cat some_code.py print(`Hello, world!`) <\/p>\n
The line «# coding: no» in a script with hidden code indicates the use of a file encoding named «no» \u2014 the keyword «coding:» is applied in Python to set the source code encoding. To run the transformed script, the Python package «no_code» must be installed, which includes the file «no.pth» that is called when using the encoding named «no» for decoding before processing by the parser. To hide not the entire file but specific portions of code, the project provides the functions no_code.nothing() and no_code.something(). <\/p>\n
