Flutter Steganograph is a digital image encoding package that embeds a message (text or image) into a cover image/text using the least significant bit (LSB) technique with minimal alteration to the original cover image/text.
Add flutter_steganograph
to your pubspec.yaml
:
dependencies:
flutter_steganograph: ^0.1.0
Importing the Package
import 'package:flutter_steganograph/flutter_steganograph.dart';
Embeds a secret text inside a cover text using zero-width characters. Returns a string with the secret message embedded inside cover text, invisible to normal readers.
import 'package:flutter_steganograph/src/flutter_steganograph.dart';
final steganograph = Steganograph();
String embeddedText = steganograph.embedTextInText(
coverText: 'cover text sample',
secretMessage: 'super secret text to hide',
);
print(embeddedText);
Extracts a text message embedded in a text using zero-width characters. Returns the extracted secret message. If no secret message is found, returns a message indicating this.
import 'package:flutter_steganograph/src/flutter_steganograph.dart';
final steganograph = Steganograph();
String secretText = steganograph.extractTextFromText(
encodedText: 'cover text sample',
);
print(secretText);
Embeds a text string into an image.
Optional saveImage
argument to download embedded image to gallery.
Returns the encoded bytes -> Uint8List
.
import 'package:image/image.dart' as dImage;
import 'package:flutter_steganograph/src/flutter_steganograph.dart';
final steganograph = Steganograph();
final coverImage = dImage.decodePng(File('/cover_image.png').readAsBytesSync())!;
final embeddedTextImage = steganograph.embedText(
image: coverImage,
text: 'super secret text',
saveImage: true
);
// to covert to material image
Image.memory(embeddedTextImage);
Extracts a secret text string from an encoded image. Returns the extracted secret String
import 'package:image/image.dart' as dImage;
import 'package:flutter_steganograph/src/flutter_steganograph.dart';
final steganograph = Steganograph();
final encodedImage = dImage.decodePng(File('/encoded_image.png').readAsBytesSync())!;
int secretLength = secretText.length;
String secretText = steganograph.extractText(
image: encodedImage,
length: secretLength,
);
Embed/encode a secret image inside a cover image.
secret image dimensions are smaller than cover image dimensions.
Returns the embedded bytes -> Uint8List
of encoded image.
import 'package:image/image.dart' as dImage;
import 'package:flutter_steganograph/src/flutter_steganograph.dart';
final steganograph = Steganograph();
final coverImage = dImage.decodePng(File('/cover_image.png').readAsBytesSync())!;
final secretImage = dImage.decodePng(File('/secret_image.png').readAsBytesSync())!;
Uint8List embeddedImage = steganograph.embedImage(
coverImage: coverImage,
secretImage: secretImage,
);
//to covert to material image
Image.memory(embeddedImage);
decode a secret image from the encoded image.
Returns the embedded bytes -> Uint8List
of secret image.
import 'package:image/image.dart' as dImage;
import 'package:flutter_steganograph/src/flutter_steganograph.dart';
final steganograph = Steganograph();
final encodedImage = dImage.decodePng(File('/encodedImage_image.png').readAsBytesSync())!;
int secretImageHeight;
int secretImageWith;
Uint8List extractedImage = steganograph.extractImage(
embeddedImage: encodedImage!,
secretWidth: secretImageHeight,
secretHeight: secretImageHeight,
);
//to covert to material image
Image.memory(extractedImage);
