Examples

Encrypt Message with Receiver's PublicKey

const ECIES = require('electrum-ecies');
 
//Receiver's PublicKey: 02c01c35eef31acb60386f7fb8e0267f08faf5724d1b2fa1f3588a5fef3e726309
 
ECIES.encrypt('Hello','02c01c35eef31acb60386f7fb8e0267f08faf5724d1b2fa1f3588a5fef3e726309');

//BIE1 use ephemeral keys, so ciphertext is different every time.

Decrypt BIE1 Message with Receiver's PrivateKey

const ECIES = require('electrum-ecies');
 
//Receiver's PrivateKey:a1b50c4d420b20059b01e7eea3b3d8a5e943728dfedf962628ca18d04bfa2cfc
 
//Decrypt Above Message
 
ECIES.decrypt('QklFMQMFmPdvjFe8Wfo+JWmTpo+33LXc+4G8ThfaucU72kieb6lWEv4layTb0x5tzpi6lA2it8rO/ELrXomJqC53uBOd+DZSzDhCSpK6SwR+Itt+Pw==','a1b50c4d420b20059b01e7eea3b3d8a5e943728dfedf962628ca18d04bfa2cfc')

I Just Want the ECDH Key

const ECIES = require('electrum-ecies');
 
const PublicKey = require('bsv').PublicKey;
 
const PrivateKey = require('bsv').PrivateKey;
 
var ecdh_key = ECIES.ecdh_key(new PublicKey([Receiver Pubkey]),new PrivateKey([Sender/Ephemeral PrivKey]))
 
var iv=ecdh_key.subarray(0,16);
 
var key_aes=ecdh_key.subarray(16,32);
 
var key_hmac=ecdh_key.subarray(32,64);
