PyJail
PyJail is a jailing tool for Python It allows you to jail Python programs in a closed off filesystem
How to install
Installing PyJail is really simple! Just run python3 ./install.py
(for Windows py .\install.py) in the directory where the files are stored!
Compatibility
As of now we're still working on a custom Python interpreter to make all programs fully jailing compatible, sadly enough it's quite hard work. So as of now it is compatible with all Python programs, but only some will be properly confined. There is a converter to automatically convert tools, but some still aren't compatible yet.
POSIX compatibility
We're also providing a (sort-of) POSIX compatible mode. This allows Python programs made for Linux to also run natively on Windows. This is more meant for Windows versions that don't feature WSL (Windows 7/8/8.1) but still need to run some Linux only scripts.
Bundled programs
To keep the installation extremely small in size and footprint, the bundled programs are also extremely small. Currently we bundle 3 programs:
sh.py (While installed: /bin/sh or /usr/bin/sh or /usr/bin/shell.py)
A very simple shell, just does directory navigation and installs packages.
ledit.py (While installed: /usr/bin/ledit.py)
A simple line text editor. Meant for extreme simplicity.
autoconvert.py (While installed: /usr/bin/autoconvert.py)
A converter to convert Python programs to be compatible with the jailed filesystem.
We recommend getting essential packages like a proper shell and the UwUGet package manager.
The 4 branches
Which branch works best for you?
Well, that's pretty simple. We have 4 branches (main, next, edge and no-posix).
If you want the most stable experience, then the main branch is for you.
If you want the lastest features, but also a more stable experience (compared to edge),
then the next branch is for you
If you want the bleeding-edge and don't care about stability, then edge is for you.
If you only need simple jailing and no POSIX compatibility, then no-posix is for you.
