crypto-use
v1.1.6crypto-use
Description
Library designed to simplify the use of encrypted data.
Right now only using rabbit from crypto-js
Features
Right now there are four features working:
- Encrypt Data using Ciphers
- Decrypt Data using Ciphers
- Search for a key to a specified MongoDB database and collection
- Save a key to a specified MongoDB database and collection
- Key Manager: mantain a cache of keys, in order to not having to query a key everytime it is needed.
There are a couple of featured planned to do:
- Any encryption method: give the user the ability to use any available encryption method
- Improve the Key Manager
Installation
yarn add crypto-use
or
npm install --save crypto-use
How to use
Encryption
import { encrypt, encrypt_object } from 'crypto-use';
const encrypted_data = encrypt({
// data can be any valid javascript expression
// for example: strings, objects, arrays,
// functions (no fat arrow functions), numbers, dates, etc...
data: {
Hello: 'World',
},
secret_key: 'your-totally-secure-key',
});
const encrypted_object = encrypt_object({
// object encryption keeps all the outer keys of the object,
// but encrypts all the values
// except the keys specified by "ignore_keys"
// which has to be an array of strings
// data must to be an object
data: {
_id: '5cd223c243ed3900220f8ee5',
hello: 'world',
},
secret_key: 'your-totally-secure-key',
ignore_keys: ['_id'], // optional, by default "ignore_keys" contains "_id"
});
Decryption
import { decrypt, decrypt_object } from 'crypto-use';
// encrypted_data previously encrypted
// encrypted_data ===
// "U2FsdGVkX1+4iC1daCbTnMFFQjOX94Q4U2FsdGVkX1+4iC1daCbTnMFFQjOX94Q4"
const decrypted_data = decrypt({
encrypted_data: encrypted_data,
secret_key: 'your-totally-secure-key',
});
// If you are not sure if your data is encrypted,
// you can get back the data you tried to decrypt
// by giving the parameter "give_back_invalid"
// by default it is false
const not_encrypted_data = decrypt({
encrypted_data: 'I am not encrypted',
secret_key: 'your-totally-secure-key',
give_back_invalid: true,
});
// not_encrypted_data === "I am not encrypted"
// encrypted_object previously encrypted
// encrypted_object ===
// { _id: '5cd223c243ed3900220f8ee5',
// hello: "U2FsdGVkX1+4iC1daCbTnMFFQjOX94Q4U2Fs" }
// decrypt_object decrypts all the values of the object,
// except the keys specified by "ignore_keys" which
// has to be an array of strings
const decrypted_object = decrypt_object({
encrypted_object: encrypted_object,
secret_key: 'your-totally-secure-key',
ignore_keys: ['_id'], // optional, by default "ignore_keys" contains "_id"
});
Key Retrieval
import { get_key } from 'crypto-use';
(async () => {
const { key, name } = await get_key({
url: 'mongodb://localhost:27017', // required
name: 'test_key', // required
dbName: 'database_name', // optional, "keys" by default
collectionName: 'collection_name', // optional, "keys" by default
});
// name === "test_key"
// key === "your-totally-secure-key"
})();
Key Storage
import { new_key } from 'crypto-use';
(async () => {
const info = await new_key({
url: 'mongodb://localhost:27017', // required
name: 'test_key', // required
key: 'your-totally-secure-key', // optional, random generated string by default
dbName: 'database_name', // optional, "keys" by default
collectionName: 'collection_name', // optional, "keys" by default
overwrite: true, // optional, "false" by default
generateOptions: {}, // optional, randomstring generate options by default
});
// info === "Inserted test_key"
})();
If no key is given, it will be automatically generated using randomstring, which you can customize using generateOptions
Key Manager
The Key Manager after it is instantiated it makes a cache, which you should only access by using the function getKey which works basically doing three things:
- If the name especified already exists in cache it returns the key asssociated.
- If the name especified doesn't exists in cache it tries to get the key from the database and returns it.
- If the key does not exists in database, it generates a new one and returns it.
import { KeyManager } from 'crypto-use';
(async () => {
const key_manager = new KeyManager({
url: 'mongodb://localhost:27017', // required
collectionName: 'collection_name', // optional, "keys" by default
dbName: 'database_name', // optional, "keys" by default
});
const key = await key_manager.getKey('name');
// key === "your-totally-secure-key"
})();
