NPM version Build Status Dependency Status Test Coverage

Encrypt the secure data and wrap it into the module

Installation

First, install Yeoman and generator-secure-data using npm (we assume you have pre-installed node.js).

(node v8 and above required for generator-secure-data)

npm install -g yo
npm install -g generator-secure-data

Usage

It is well known that keeping passwords in plain text is bad. When application is require to integrate secure data, for example API keys, passwords, etc - it is same things. Application itself is a plain data. And secure data in it must be crypted.

This generator require file with secure data and generate module which contain that secure data in packed crypted form:

secure-data.json --> [yo secure-data] --> cipher.js

To generate your secure data module (args available):

$ yo secure-data

So you just need to import function from this module and call it with a password and receive result (wrapped in promise):

const cipher = require('cipher.js')
cipher('password').then( result => {
  console.log(result.key)
})
 
// or with async/await
console.log(await cipher('password'))
