CP-ABE bindings for NodeJS

Here you can find bindings of CP-ABE suite for NodeJS. In order to make this project to work you will need libswabe-0.9, pbc-0.5.14 and cpabe-0.11. These dependencies will be downloaded and compiled automatically.

Patches to bswabe, cpabe and pbc

Before compiling those C libraries this project applies these patches:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17373306/error-in-linking-gmp-while-compiling-cpabe-package-from-its-source-code

Also, those libraries will be compiled with -fPIC option (or equivalent) in order to be compatible with node-gyp.

The function die is commented out and header now uses const char * instead of char *.

Every patch can be found at patches folder.

Compilation

You can compile this project if these dependencies are already solved:

libbswabe-0.9/libbswabe.a
pbc-0.5.14/.libs/libpbc.so
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglib-2.0.so.0

After that, you must use node-gyp to compile the module

node-gyp configure
node-gyp build

And you can check that bindings compiled correctly by executing the tests.

cp build/Release/cp-abe.node jssrc/
npm install
npm test
