sudo mv fortress /usr/local/bin/

Quick Start

CLI Usage

# Initialize Fortress
fortress init

# Start the server
fortress server start

# Create an encryption key
fortress key create --name my-key --algorithm aes256-gcm

# Encrypt data
echo "secret data" | fortress encrypt --key-id my-key > encrypted.dat

# Decrypt data
fortress decrypt --key-id my-key --input encrypted.dat

Library Usage (Rust)

use fortress_db::prelude::*;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let fortress = Fortress::builder().build().await?;
    let db = fortress.create_database("myapp").await?;
    
    let user = db.insert("users", &serde_json::json!({
        "name": "Alice Johnson",
        "email": "alice@example.com",
        "ssn": "123-45-6789"  // Automatically encrypted
    })).await?;
    
    println!("User created: {}", user["name"]);
    Ok(())
}

Library Usage (Node.js)

const { Fortress } = require('fortress-cli-napi');

async function main() {
    const fortress = new Fortress();
    
    await fortress.init();
    await fortress.serverStart();
    
    const key = await fortress.keyCreate({
        name: 'my-key',
        algorithm: 'aes256-gcm'
    });
    
    console.log('Key created:', key);
}

main().catch(console.error);

Features

Security First
