    How to instantiate an asymmetric cryptography service

The following example shows the default way to create a new instance of an asymmetric cryptography service.

var asymmetric = require('scytl-asymmetric');

var asymmetricService = asymmetric.newService();

The following example shows how to override the default cryptographic policy used for asymmetric cryptography operations by changing the encryption key pair length to 3072 bits.

var cryptoPolicy = require('scytl-cryptopolicy');
var asymmetric = require('scytl-asymmetric');

var myPolicy = cryptoPolicy.newInstance();

myPolicy.asymmetric.secretKey.encryption.lengthBytes =
  cryptoPolicy.options.asymmetric.keyPair.encryption.keyLengthBits.KL_3072;

var asymmetricService = asymmetric.newService({policy: myPolicy});

Note: It is desirable to use the property CryptographicPolicy.options to override the default policy, as shown above, in order to ensure that one is using an option that is allowed by the cryptographic policy.

The following example shows how to supply one's own secure random service object to the asymmetric cryptography service.

var asymmetric = require('scytl-asymmetric');
var secureRandom = require('scytl-securerandom');

var mySecureRandomService = secureRandom.newService();
var asymmetricService = asymmetric.newService({
  secureRandomService: mySecureRandomService
});

How to instantiate key objects.

The following example shows how to create a new RsaPublicKey object from an RSA public key in PEM format and access its components.

var publicKey = asymmetricService.newRsaPublicKey(publicKeyPem);
var modulus = publicKey.n;
var publicExponent = publicKey.e;

The following example shows how to create a new RsaPrivateKey object from an RSA private key in PEM format and access its components.

var privateKey = asymmetricService.newRsasPrivateKey(privateKeyPem);
var modulus = privateKey.n;
var publicExponent = privateKey.e;
var privateExponent = privateKey.d;
var firstPrime = privateKey.p;
var secondPrime = privateKey.q;
var firstExponent = privateKey.dP;
var secondExponent = privateKey.dQ;
var coefficient = privateKey.qInv;

The following example shows how to create a new RsaPublicKey object from its components and serialize it to PEM format.

var publicKey = asymmetricService.newRsaPublicKey(n, e);
var publicKeyPem = publicKey.toPem();

The following example shows how to create a new RsaPrivateKey object from its components and serialize it to PEM format.

var privateKey = asymmetricService.newRsaPrivateKey(n, e, d, p, q, dP, dQ, qInv);
var privateKeyPem = privateKey.toPem();

Note Key objects must always be converted to PEM format before being used as input arguments to any cryptographic functions defined by this library.

How to instantiate a key pair.

The following example shows how to generate a new key pair and retrieve its public and private components, in PEM format.

var keyPairGenerator = asymmetricService.newKeyPairGenerator();

var keyPair = keyPairGenerator.next();
var publicKeyPem = keyPair.publicKey;
var privateKeyPem = keyPair.privateKey;

The following example shows how to create a new key pair object from its components.

var keyPair = asymmetricService.newKeyPair(publicKeyPem, privateKeyPem);

How to digitally sign data and verify the signature

The following examples show how to digitally sign some data and verify the resulting signature. The input data for signature generation and verification can be in the form of a string or a byte array, wrapped in a Uint8Array object. The output of the signature generation will be in the form of a byte array, wrapped in a Uint8Array object.

var asymmetric = require('scytl-asymmetric');
var codec = require('scytl-codec');

var asymmetricService = asymmetric.newService();
var signer = asymmetricService.newSigner().init(privateKeyPem);
var sigVerifier = asymmetricService.newSignatureVerifier().init(publicKeyPem);
...

var signature = signer.sign('mydata');
var verified = sigVerifier.verify(signature, 'myData');
expect(verified).toBeTruthy();

var signature = signer.sign(new Uint8Array[0x01, 0x02, 0x03]);
var verified = sigVerifier.verify(signature, new Uint8Array[0x01, 0x02, 0x03]);
expect(verified).toBeTruthy();

The following example shows how to digitally sign some data with multiple parts.

var dataParts = ['myData1', 'myData2', 'myData3'];
...

for (var i = 0; i < dataParts.length; i++) {
  signer.update(dataParts[i]);
}
var signature = signer.sign();

--or--

for (var i = 0; i < (dataParts.length-1); i++) {
  signer.update(dataParts[i]);
}
var signature = signer.sign('myData3');

The following example shows how to verify a signature generated from some data with multiple parts.

for (var i = 0; i < dataParts.length; i++) {
  sigVerifier.update(dataParts[i]);
}
var verified = verifier.verify(signature);

--or--

for (var i = 0; i < (dataParts.length-1); i++) {
  sigVerifier.update(dataParts[i]);
}
var verified = verifier.verify(signature, 'myData3');

The following example shows how to digitally sign some data with multiple parts, using method chaining.

var signature = signer.update('myData1').update('myData2').update('myData3').sign();

--or--

var signature = signer.update('myData1').update('myData2').sign('myData3');

The following example shows how to verify a signature generated from some data with multiple data parts, using method chaining.

var verified = sigVerifier.update('myData1').update('myData2').update('myData3').verify(signature);

--or--

var verified = sigVerifier.update('myData1').update('myData2').verify(signature, 'myData3');

How to encrypt and decrypt data

The following examples show how to encrypt and decrypt some data. The input data of the encryption can be in the form of a string or a byte array, wrapped in a Uint8Array object. The output of both the encryption and the decryption will be in the form of a byte array, wrapped in a Uint8Array object. To retrieve encrypted data of type string the result of the decryption must be UTF-8 decoded.

var asymmetric = require('scytl-asymmetric');
var codec = require('scytl-codec');

var asymmetricService = asymmetric.newService();
var encrypter = asymmetricService.newEncrypter().init(publicKeyPem);
var decrypter = asymmetricService.newDecrypter().init(privateKeyPem);
...

var encryptedData = encrypter.encrypt('myData');
var decryptedData = codec.utf8Decode(decrypter.decrypt(encryptedData));
expect(decryptedData).toBe('myData');

var encryptedData = encrypter.encrypt(new Uint8Array[0x01, 0x02, 0x03]);
var decryptedData = decrypter.decrypt(encryptedData);
expect(decryptedData).toEqual(new Uint8Array[0x01, 0x02, 0x03]);
