Nothing has been indexed for 0.1.1 yet. The tag is recorded, its shard.yml has not been read, so the manifest and dependency list below are empty because they are unknown rather than because they are absent.
Installation
# Add this to your shard.yml
dependencies:

# Crypt
[](https://github.com/Nicolab/crystal-crypt/actions) [](https://github.com/Nicolab/crystal-crypt/releases) [](https://nicolab.github.io/crystal-crypt/)
Cryptographic utilities made easy for [Crystal lang](https://crystal-lang.org).
This module provides cryptographic features, with abstractions on top of OpenSSL
and Crypto (included in the Crystal standard-library).
## Installation
1. Add the dependency to your `shard.yml`:
```yaml
dependencies:
crypt:
github: nicolab/crystal-crypt
```
2. Run `shards install`
## Usage
To optimize the size of the final binary, features are decoupled,
so each module must be included when you need it.
### OpenSSL Cipher: Encrypt / Decrypt
> [API doc: Crypt::Crypter](https://nicolab.github.io/crystal-crypt/Crypt/Crypter.html)
```crystal
require "crypt"
require "crypt/crypter"
require "crypt/random"
data = "super secret data"
secret = Crypt.random_string(32)
crypter = Crypt::Crypter.new(secret)
# Data encrypted
encrypted = crypter.encrypt(data)
# Data decrypted
decrypted_bytes = crypter.decrypt(encrypted)
# Decrypted data (Bytes)
puts decrypted_bytes
# Convert Bytes to String
puts String.new(decrypted_bytes)
```
#### With signature
Encrypt with a crypto signature:
```crystal
require "crypt"
require "crypt/crypter"
require "crypt/random"
data = "super secret data"
secret = Crypt.random_string(32)
crypter = Crypt::Crypter.new(secret)
# Data encrypted and signed
encrypted = crypter.encrypt(data, :sign)
# Data verified and decrypted
decrypted_bytes = crypter.decrypt(encrypted, :sign)
# Decrypted data (Bytes)
puts decrypted_bytes
# Convert Bytes to String
puts String.new(decrypted_bytes)
```
### Signer
Sign and verify given data.
```crystal
require "crypt"
require "crypt/signer"
data = "Hello Crystal!"
secret = "super secret"
signer = Crypt::Signer.new(secret)
# Sign the data
signed_data = signer.sign(data)
# => Encoded String, URL and filename safe alphabet (RFC 4648).
puts signed_data
# Verify the data integrity and get it
puts signer.verify(signed_data) # => "Hello Crystal!"
puts signer.verify(signed_data) == data # => true
```
> [API doc: Crypt::Signer](https://nicolab.github.io/crystal-crypt/Crypt/Signer.html)
### Bcrypt password
Generate, read and verify `Crypto::Bcrypt` hashes:
```crystal
require "crypt"
require "crypt/bcrypt"
password = Crypt.create_bcrypt_password("super secret", cost: 10)
# => $2a$10$rI4xRiuAN2fyiKwynO6PPuorfuoM4L2PVv6hlnVJEmNLjqcibAfHq
password.verify("wrong secret") # => false
password.verify("super secret") # => true
```
> [API doc: Crypt.create_bcrypt_password](https://nicolab.github.io/crystal-crypt/Crypt.html#create_bcrypt_password)
---
Loads a `Bcrypt` password hash.
```crystal
require "crypt"
require "crypt/bcrypt"
password = Crypt.load_bcrypt_password(
"$2a$10$X6rw/jDiLBuzHV./JjBNXe8/Po4wTL0fhdDNdAdjcKN/Fup8tGCya"
)
password.version # => "2a"
password.salt # => "X6rw/jDiLBuzHV./JjBNXe"
password.digest # => "8/Po4wTL0fhdDNdAdjcKN/Fup8tGCya"
# password.verify("some secret")
```
> [API doc: Crypt.load_bcrypt_password](https://nicolab.github.io/crystal-crypt/Crypt.html#load_bcrypt_password)
### Secure random
```crystal
require "crypt"
require "crypt/random"
```
See API doc:
* [API doc: Crypt.random_string](https://nicolab.github.io/crystal-crypt/Crypt.html#random_string)
* [API doc: Crypt.random_bytes](https://nicolab.github.io/crystal-crypt/Crypt.html#random_bytes)
* [API doc: Crypt.random_bytes_string](https://nicolab.github.io/crystal-crypt/Crypt.html#random_bytes_string)
### Key derivation
Key derivation PKCS5/PBKDF2 (Password-Based Key Derivation Function 2)
```crystal
require "crypt"
require "crypt/key-deriv"
require "crypt/random"
password = "My password"
salt = Crypt.random_string(16)
# key size: 64
Crypt.key_deriv(password, salt)
# key size: 10
Crypt.key_deriv(password, salt, key_size: 10)
# iteration: 2000
Crypt.key_deriv(password, salt, iter: 2000)
# algo: sha256
Crypt.key_deriv(password, salt, algo: :sha256)
```
