Command Line Interface

There is a command line interface for baking and unbaking assertion data.

To bake a badge, identify the existing BadgeClass image with the input_filename and desired baked Assertion image filename to be created as well as the data to be baked into the image.

To extract Open Badges data from an image, use the unbake command.

bakery unbake [input_filename]

Output_filename is optional if you want the baked data to be written to a file.

Python Interface

To bake a badge, pass in an open file as input_file and the string of the badge data you wish to bake into the image. Result is an open TemporaryFile that contains the data.

from openbadges_bakery import bake
output_file = bake(input_file, assertion_json_string)
