0. This documentation explains how to install the Python bindings for Capstone
|
||
|
|
from source. If you want to install it from a PyPi package (recommended if
|
||
|
|
you are on Windows), see README.txt.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. To install Capstone and the Python bindings on *nix, run the command below:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
pip install bindings/python/
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. The tests directory contains some test code to show how to use the Capstone API.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- test_lite.py
|
||
|
|
Similarly to test_basic.py, but this code shows how to use disasm_lite(), a lighter
|
||
|
|
method to disassemble binary. Unlike disasm() API (used by test_basic.py), which returns
|
||
|
|
CsInsn objects, this API just returns tuples of (address, size, mnemonic, op_str).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The main reason for using this API is better performance: disasm_lite() is at least
|
||
|
|
20% faster than disasm(). Memory usage is also less. So if you just need basic
|
||
|
|
information out of disassembler, use disasm_lite() instead of disasm().
