@xutl/crypto

One eXtremely Useful Tool Library to Simplfy working with crypto in node.

Install

npm install --save-dev @xutl/crypto

Usage

import { hash, random, SecretKey, PrivateKey } from '@xutl/crypto';

// data can be string | Uint8Array | Iterable<Uint8Array> | AsyncIterable<Uint8Array>
const sha1 = await hash(data, 'sha1');
const sha256 = await hash(data, 'sha256');
const sha512 = await hash(data, 'sha512');

const secret = SecretKey.createRandom(2048);
for await (const chunk of await secret.encrypt('aes256', data, await random(16) /* needs to be a iv */, 'cbc')) {
	write_encrypted(chunk);
}
for await (const chunk of await secret.decrypt('aes256', data, await random(16) /* needs to be the iv */, 'cbc')) {
	write_decrypted(chunk);
}

const pkey = await PrivateKey.createRSA(2048);
const sig = await pkey.sign('hallo');
if (pkey.public.verify(sig, 'hallo')) console.log('verified');

for await (const chunk of await pkey.encipher(data)) {
	write_encrypted(chunk);
}

for await (const chunk of await pkey.private.decipher(data)) {
	write_decrypted(chunk);
}

const bytes = await secret.export();
await pkey.der();
await pkey.pem();
await pkey.public.der();
await pkey.public.pem();

const pubkey = await PublicKey.fromPEM(pemstring);
const pubkey = await PublicKey.fromDER(derbuffer);
  • plus there’s Diffie-Hellman exchanges (both regular & EC)
  • plus there’s DSA, EC, …
  • use typescript to get full signatures
