This project aims at parsing all kind of APDU exchange files, and displaying them in a understandable fashion.

From the top of the repo, given you have the right to install the package (either root or in a virtualenv):

pip install .

Once install, you should now have a dale command:

$ dale -h
usage: dale [-h] APDU_FILE

Explicit logging of a list of APDUs

positional arguments:
  APDU_FILE   The file containing the list of APDUs

optional arguments:
  -h, --help  show this help message and exit

DALE reads APDU files with the following content:

# Comment
=> <APDU>
<= <RAPDU>
# Example
=> e003000500102020
<= 9000

DALE can also extract the APDU content from Ledger Live logs.

Warning: sometimes the Ledger Live does not record the APDU logs in the correct order. If you encounter errors using DALE while decoding logs you may try to use the --reverse command line option.
