dashmachine-crypto v1.0.0

Dashmachine crypto utility library

Cryptographic helper functions for use in Dash Platform Web Dapp Sample Messaging.

Note: this is an experimental library to support the web dapp sample investigation of Dash Platform usage - not for production use.

Breaking Changes From v1.0.0 DashJS is required as an external dependency in both browser and node.js versions

Prerequisites

To utilise the encryption & decryption by username The library requires DashJS as an external dependency, so this must be referenced BEFORE the Dashmachine Crypto library. In Node.js:

const Dash = require('dash');
const DashmachineCrypto = require('dashmachine-crypto');

In the browser:

<script src="https://unpkg.com/dash"></script>
<script src="dashmachine-crypto-lib.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Please see the examples below for sample usage

Browser usage

Include the dashmachine-crypto-lib.js script file available from the releases page.

Nodejs usage

npm i dashmachine-crypto

DashmachineCrypto

DashmachineCrypto performs ECIES encryption & decryption and Double SHA256 Hashing. Note the class contains only static methods so you do not have to call the contructor, i.e. use DashmachineCrypto.encrypt, not new DashmachineCrypto()
