Provide Waku Message Version 1 payload encryption as defined in 26/WAKU2-PAYLOAD.
Symmetric encryption uses a unique key to encrypt and decrypt messages.
import {
createDecoder,
createEncoder,
generateSymmetricKey
} from "@waku/message-encryption/symmetric";
// Generate a random key
const key = generateSymmetricKey();
// To send messages, create an encoder
const encoder = createEncoder(contentTopic, key);
// For example
waku.lightPush.push(encoder, { payload });
// To receive messages, create a decoder
const decoder = createDecoder(contentTopic, key);
// For example
await waku.store.queryOrderedCallback([decoder], (msg) => {
// ...
});
ECIES encryption enables encryption for a public key and decryption using a private key.
import {
createDecoder,
createEncoder,
generatePrivateKey,
getPublicKey
} from "@waku/message-encryption/ecies";
// Generate a random private key
const privateKey = generatePrivateKey();
// Keep the private key secure, provide the public key to the sender
const publicKey = getPublicKey(privateKey);
// To send messages, create an encoder
const encoder = createEncoder(contentTopic, publicKey);
// For example
waku.lightPush.push(encoder, { payload });
// To receive messages, create a decoder
const decoder = createDecoder(contentTopic, privateKey);
// For example
await waku.store.queryOrderedCallback([decoder], (msg) => {
// ...
});
