Getting Started

Eptalights makes code analysis easier, faster, and more efficient. Whether you’re a developer, researcher, or security expert, our technology simplifies complex processes into three powerful steps:

1. Extract ByteCode or IR Data from Your Source Code

Eptalights makes it easy to extract ByteCode or Intermediate Representation (IR) from your source code. Whether you’re analyzing C, C++, or other languages, our tools simplify the process, giving you quick access to the underlying structure of your code. Currently Supported Languages:

Visit any of our supported language extractor and follow the documentation to generate the IR/bytecode in your desired directory.

2. Transform And Lift Code to SophiaIR models

Once you’ve extracted the ByteCode or IR, leverage our powerful cloud-based lifter to convert it into a streamlined set of SophiaIR models below.

  1. Functions - FunctionModel

  2. Control Flow graphs (CFG) - ControlFlowGraphModel

  3. Call Sites - CallsiteModel

  4. Variables (defined/used) - VariableModel

  5. File Metadata - FileMetadataModel

  6. Class Metadata - ClassMetadataModel

  7. More …

This transformation helps in simplifying complex code, making it easier to analyze, detect bugs or variants, and understand and spot patterns without getting lost in complicated details.

Note

Our cloud-based lifter is currently in beta, but we’re here to help! If you need assistance transforming your code, we’re happy to do it for you. Feel free to reach out to us here.

3. Flexible Database Access

Choose how you interact with your data:

  • Local Access: Download the database and work offline with ease.

import eptalights_code
api = eptalights_code.LocalAPI("eptalights_code.toml")

for fn in api.search_functions():
    print(fn.name)

# output
