A list of generic tools for parsing binary data structures, such as file formats, network protocols or bitstreams

binary-parsing's Issues

GNU Poke

I think it should be added to the "Other Stand-alone Software" section.

Add binarylang

Could you please add binarylang? It is far more advanced compared to binaryparse.

Netzob URL is no longer about Netzob

It seems the link to Netzob tool under Other Stand-alone Software leads to the site www.netzob.org, the contents of which are no longer about what Netzob tool is about. Netzob's official GitHub repository has a brief hint to it that they actually refer to a archived version of their site which is what used to be the original homepage serving the actual Netzob, a reverse-engineering tool. To clarify:

Netzob.org before (archived from 2016) ✅	Netzob.org now ❌

I believe the domain netzob.org is still under their control, but the contents are totally irrelevant (something about jobs?) and no mention of Netzob as a reverse engineering tool, though I do not know why. I had to Google to get their actual repository.

For the purposes of this Awesome list, it'd be better if the link to Netzob referred to their GitHub repository: github.com/netzob/netzob instead netzob.org (until their site is fixed).

Another declarative parser framework in Python

Hi, I developed another binary parsing framework for Python. Is it possible to include it in the current framework list?

• Here's a small comparison across the listed Python frameworks targeting binary parsing.
• Caterpillar: A Python 3.12+ library to pack and unpack structured binary data.

break list apart by Parser generators, parsing libraries and frameworks.

Do you know something about microcontroller-specific binary parser generators?

I don't see some tools suitable for very constraint systems, like http://www.colm.net/open-source/ragel/
or tools or papers specially intended for stream binary parsing with error recovery (Wireshark must-have features).
