R2pipe

The r2pipe api was initially designed for NodeJS in order to support reusing the web's r2.js API from the commandline. The r2pipe module permits interacting with r2 instances in different methods:

- spawn pipes (r2 -0)

- http queries (cloud friendly)

- tcp socket (r2 -c)

Examples ========

Python

$ pip install r2pipe
import r2pipe

r2 = r2pipe.open("/bin/ls")
r2.cmd('aa')
print(r2.cmd("afl"))
print(r2.cmdj("aflj"))  # evaluates JSONs and returns an object

NodeJS

Use this command to install the r2pipe bindings

$ npm install r2pipe

Here's a sample hello world

const r2pipe = require('r2pipe');
r2pipe.open('/bin/ls', (err, res) => {
  if (err) {
  throw err;
  }
  r2.cmd ('af @ entry0', function (o) {
  r2.cmd ("pdf @ entry0", function (o) {
    console.log (o);
    r.quit ()
  });
  });
});
