Vigenère Encode

Category: Ciphers

Status: Registered and callable in the CyberChef 11.3.0 compatibility inventory.

Input / output: string → string

Background: https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Vigenère_cipher

What it does

The Vigenere cipher is a method of encrypting alphabetic text by using a series of different Caesar ciphers based on the letters of a keyword. It is a simple form of polyalphabetic substitution.

Note

Status here means the operation name is implemented and callable. It does not by itself promise byte-for-byte parity for every upstream option. See Compatibility and current status for the verified scope and known boundaries.

Arguments and options

Arguments are positional. Keep their order when using bake() or Pipeline.then().

Recipe template

Important

This is a call template built from the documented defaults. Replace placeholder values such as empty keys, paths, patterns, or lookup data before running it.

from pychef import bake

input_value = "example"
args = ['']
result = bake(input_value, [{"op": 'Vigenère Encode', "args": args}])
print(result)

Pipeline example

from pychef import Pipeline

args = ['']
transform = Pipeline().then('Vigenère Encode', *args)
result = transform("example")

Dedicated operation module

The registered entry point lives in pychef.operations.by_operation.vigen_re_encode. Direct calls receive the input value and a positional argument tuple:

from pychef.operations.by_operation.vigen_re_encode import run

result = run("example", tuple(['']))
pychef.operations.by_operation.vigen_re_encode.run(value, args)

Run this operation using its shared internal implementation.

Parameters:
  • value (str | bytes)

  • args (Sequence[Any])

Return type:

str | bytes
