# Rabe
rabe is a rust library implementing several Attribute Based Encryption (ABE) schemes using a modified version of the `bn` library of zcash (type-3 pairing / Baretto Naering curve). The modification of `bn` brings in `serde` instead of the deprecated `rustc_serialize`.
This is a rust crate and comes with C bindings. For integration in distributed applications contact [us](mailto:info@aisec.fraunhofer.de).

# Building rabe lib
In order to compile and test:
- install rust nightly
- git clone library
- install build-essential
- and then run `cargo build --release && RUST_BACKTRACE=1 cargo test -- --nocapture`
# Building rabe console app
In order to compile and test:
- install rust nightly
- git clone library
- install build-essential
- and then run `cargo run -p rabe-console`
For example, in order to create msk and pk of an AC17 KP-ABE scheme run:
```bash
$ cargo run -p rabe-console -- --scheme AC17KP setup
```
