Decode, decrypt and parse South Africa driving license
MIT License
The Python project is used to decode, decrypt and parse South African driving licenses. The PDF417 decoding part relies on Dynamsoft Barcode Reader, which requires a license key.
$ sadltool [-t TYPES] [-e ENCRYPTED] [-l LICENSE] source
positional arguments:
source A source file containing information of driving license.
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-t TYPES, --types TYPES
Specify the source type. 1: PDF417 image 2: Base64 string 3: Raw bytes
-e ENCRYPTED, --encrypted ENCRYPTED
Is the source encrypted? 0: No 1: Yes
-l LICENSE, --license LICENSE
The license key is required for decoding PDF417
python test.py images/dlbase64.txt -t 2 -e 0
