⚠️ globalid-crypto-library version 3 is deprecated.

globalid-crypto-library

This library groups together all the crypto-related functionality in the globaliD platform, and makes it available so that it works for Node.js on the server.

Note that this is not a standalone npm package in its own right.

Breaking Changes

Support for Node 12 and up

globaliD crypto library version 5 only supports Node 12 and up. We are going to support version based on the maintenance plan found here - https://nodejs.org/en/about/releases

Migrating from v3/v4 to v5

  • Because all most every method in this package can be done without a promise, we decided to refactor the package so it can be used without a promise.
  • Fixed how the Typescript interfaces are defined and because of that names of the sub-packages changed. The list of renames:
    • cryptosdk.aes -> cryptosdk.AES
    • cryptosdk.gid -> cryptosdk.GID
    • cryptosdk.jwe -> cryptosdk.JWE
    • cryptosdk.jwk -> cryptosdk.JWK
    • cryptosdk.hmac -> cryptosdk.HMAC
    • cryptosdk.pbkdf -> cryptosdk.PBKDF
    • cryptosdk.rsa -> cryptosdk.RSA
    • cryptosdk.util -> cryptosdk.Util
  • Package no longer has a sub-package bcrypt, dependence bcrypt was removed from the project.
  • Package no longer has a default export
  • Method cryptosdk.util.hmacSHA512 was remove, now it can be done with cryptosdk.HMAC.sha512 or cryptosdk.HMAC.nodeHmac('sha512',...)

Example or how to migrate:

// version 3 or 4
import cryptosdk from 'globalid-crypto-library'
const result: string = await cryptosdk.aes.encrypt(data, password)
// version 5
import * as cryptosdk from 'globalid-crypto-library'
const result: string = cryptosdk.AES.encrypt(data, password)
// or 
import { AES } from 'globalid-crypto-library'
const result: string = AES.encrypt(data, password)

Dependencies

Currently the project has only one dependence:

Installation

To install, simply add the crypto library as a dependency within your project. For example:

$ npm install globalid-crypto-library --save

Usage

To use the globalid-crypto-library, simply require the library, like this in the commonJS format:

const crypto = require('globalid-crypto-library')

or if you are using a transpiler (i.e. when using TypeScript):

import * as crypto from 'globalid-crypto-library'

Once it has been required, you can use a consistent interface across all the various platforms, following the API described below. For example:

let keyPair = crypto.RSA.generateKeyPair()

Available Methods

The crypto library is broken into several sections, grouping functions according to the type of cryptographic functionality they provide:

crypto.AES

encrypt

crypto.AES.encrypt(data: string, password: string): string

decrypt

crypto.AES.decrypt(data: string, password: string): string

Decrypt some data previously encrypted using the ```typescript crypto.AES.decrypt(data: string, password: string)` function.

Note: Taking the first 32 characters from the data string is the IV value in hex needed for AES-256-CBC.
