expo-standard-web-crypto v1.8.1

expo-standard-crypto

A partial implementation of the W3C Crypto API for Expo

API documentation

This package provides a partial polyfill of the W3C Crypto API for Expo. Namely, Crypto#getRandomValues() is implemented. See the W3C Crypto specification for the API documentation.

Installation in Expo projects

First follow the instructions for installing expo-crypto, which is required by this package. Then install this package.

Add the package to your npm dependencies

npm install expo-standard-web-crypto

Using the polyfill

There are two ways to use this package: you can import a Crypto instance or you can globally define crypto. Some code may expect the latter.

Importing a Crypto instance:

import crypto from 'expo-standard-web-crypto';

Globally defining crypto:

import { polyfillWebCrypto } from 'expo-standard-web-crypto';

polyfillWebCrypto();
// crypto is now globally defined

In either case, if your runtime environment already defines crypto globally, this package uses that instance instead of providing its own.
