Module primitives

This module contains all cryptographic primitives used by dexios-core

Enums

Algorithm

This is an enum containing all AEADs supported by dexios-core

Mode

This defines the possible modes used for encrypting/decrypting

Constants

ALGORITHMS_LEN

BLOCK_SIZE

This is the streaming block size

ENCRYPTED_MASTER_KEY_LEN

MASTER_KEY_LEN

SALT_LEN

This is the length of the salt used for password hashing

Statics

ALGORITHMS

This is an array containing all AEADs supported by dexios-core.

Functions

gen_master_key

Generates a new protected master key of the specified MASTER_KEY_LEN.

gen_nonce

This can be used to generate a nonce for encryption It requires both the algorithm and the mode, so it can correctly determine the nonce length This nonce can be passed directly to EncryptionStreams::initialize()

gen_salt

Generates a salt, of the specified SALT_LEN

get_nonce_len

This function calculates the length of the nonce, depending on the data provided
