regipy
==========
Regipy is a python library for parsing offline registry hives!

**Requires Python 3.9 or higher.**

Features:

* Use as a library
* Recurse over the registry hive, from root or a given path and get all subkeys and values
* Read specific subkeys and values
* Apply transaction logs on a registry hive
* Command Line Tools:
    * Dump an entire registry hive to json
    * Apply transaction logs on a registry hive
    * Compare registry hives
    * Execute plugins from a robust plugin system (i.e: amcache, shimcache, extract computer name...)

Using as a library:
--------------------
.. code:: python

    from regipy.registry import RegistryHive
    reg = RegistryHive('/Users/martinkorman/Documents/TestEvidence/Registry/Vibranium-NTUSER.DAT')

    # Iterate over a registry hive recursively:
    for entry in reg.recurse_subkeys(as_json=True):
        print(entry)

    # Iterate over a key and get all subkeys and their modification time:
    for sk in reg.get_key('Software').get_subkeys():
        print(sk.name, convert_wintime(sk.header.last_modified).isoformat())

    # Get values from a specific registry key:
    reg.get_key('Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\BrowserEmulation').get_values(as_json=True)

    # Use plugins:
    from regipy.plugins.ntuser.ntuser_persistence import NTUserPersistencePlugin
    NTUserPersistencePlugin(reg, as_json=True).run()

    # Run all validated plugins on a registry hive:
    run_relevant_plugins(reg, as_json=True)

    # Include unvalidated plugins (may return incomplete/inaccurate data):
    run_relevant_plugins(reg, as_json=True, include_unvalidated=True)

Install
^^^^^^^
Install regipy and the command line tools dependencies:

``pip install regipy[cli]``


NOTE: using pip with ``regipy[cli]`` instead of the plain ``regipy`` is a
significant change from version 1.9.x

For using regipy as a library, install only ``regipy`` which comes with fewer
dependencies:

``pip install regipy``

Plugin Validation
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Regipy plugins are validated using test cases to ensure they return accurate data.
By default, only validated plugins are executed when using ``run_relevant_plugins()``
or the CLI tools.

To include unvalidated plugins (which may return incomplete or inaccurate data):

.. code:: python

    # As a library:
    run_relevant_plugins(reg, as_json=True, include_unvalidated=True)

.. code:: bash

    # CLI:
    regipy-plugins-run /path/to/hive -o output.json --include-unvalidated

Unvalidated plugins will log a warning when executed. Use them at your own discretion.
