Quark-crypto NPM

Simple CLI tool to encrypt/decrypt multiple files.

Installation

npm install -g quark-crypto

It will install quark-crypto package globally, so that you can use qcrypto binary everywhere.

Usage

By default, it will encrypt/decrypt all files in the current directory using aes-256-cbc algorithm and 'sha256' digest. It will append .encrypted extension to encrypted files and remove it after decryption.

$ qcrypto <(e)ncrypt|(d)ecrypt> [options]
