<h3>Key Obfuscation</h3>
659+
<p>Obfuscation is the deliberate act of creating source or machine code that is difficult for humans to understand, this helps to improve security - it is far from being the ultimate security solution but is a thing to use in a non-production environment.</p>
660+
661+
For creating a file with the key and obfuscating it:
662+
663+
```python
664+
import base64
665+
import pathlib
666+
import os
667+
import re
668+
from pathlib import Path
669+
670+
# Dynamic File Path Solution
671+
API_PATH = pathlib.Path(__file__).parent.absolute()
672+
673+
674+
def relative_to_assets(path: str) -> Path:
675+
return API_PATH / Path(path)
676+
677+
userChange = input("Enter key: ").strip()
678+
679+
# Pick userChange and encode it to base64
680+
userChange = base64.b64encode(userChange.encode('utf-8'))
681+
# Save userChange to "API" file
682+
with open(relative_to_assets('Data/security/API'), 'wb') as f:
683+
# Delete everything inside the file.
684+
f.truncate()
685+
f.write(userChange)
686+
687+
print("DONE! You are ready to use the API!")
688+
689+
```
690+
691+
692+
For reading Key from file:
693+
694+
```python
695+
import base64
696+
import pathlib
697+
import os
698+
import re
699+
from pathlib import Path
700+
701+
# Dynamic File Path Solution
702+
API_PATH = pathlib.Path(__file__).parent.absolute()
703+
704+
705+
def relative_to_assets(path: str) -> Path:
706+
return API_PATH / Path(path)
707+
708+
API_CONTENT = None
709+
# πŸ” Security execution => READING API FROM FILE
710+
711+
712+
def API_SEC():
713+
global API_CONTENT
714+
# Security measures
715+
API_CONTENT = open(relative_to_assets("Data/security/API"), "r").read()
716+
API_DECODED = base64.b64decode(API_CONTENT.encode("utf-8"))
717+
718+
# Regular expression to remove garbage characters, do not remove "-"
719+
API_DECODED_CLEAN = re.sub(
720+
r"[^A-Za-z0-9-]", "", API_DECODED.decode("utf-8"))
721+
722+
return API_DECODED_CLEAN
723+
```
