Contributing to project

[lumpyd]

Hi,

Is it possible to allow me contributing code to your project?

There are few changes I would like to add:

1. Allow working from string buffers in addition to file-io (e.g. allow initializing a PE object from string and getting the modified result as a string and not through 'write' to io) - can be done easily

2. Enable section.write (e.g. rewriting section data, and fixing subsequent sections headers) 

Thanks

Hi,

Contributions are always welcome.

Regarding 1) I don't know what your exact needs may be but you can
have pefile take a string buffer by invoking it as:

pe = pefile.PE(data=your_buffer)

The pe.write() method will return a string if invoked without a
filename argument.

2) can be usually achieved via set_bytes_at_rva() and
set_bytes_at_offset(). If the RVA of the beginning of section is
provided, the given data will overwrite the section's contents. A more
convenient method may come handy, so feel free to implement it.
Something more elaborate, like automatically resizing and adjusting
all headers and resources (if necessary) is a bit trickier and would
be a great contribution!

Best regards,

Hi,

I wanted to know  if there is any chance this project can be moved to github to allow more active contribution of features/fixes?

Thnx, Max
