Installation

You can quickly integrate video-encryptor into your Node.js project using npm:

npm install video-encryptor

Getting Started

Importing the Library

To use video-encryptor, you need to import it into your Node.js project:

const VideoEncryptor  = require("video-encryptor");
const videoEncryptor = new VideoEncryptor();

Encrypting a Video

Usage

To encrypt a video, you'll need the path to the video file, an encryption key, and the desired output file path. Here's how to use the library to encrypt a video:

const videoPath = "./demo.mp4";
const encryptionKey = "your-secret-key";
const encryptedFilePath = "encrypted-video";
videoEncryptor.encryptVideo(videoPath, encryptionKey, encryptedFilePath);

Decrypting an Encrypted Video

Usage

To decrypt an encrypted video, you'll need the path to the encrypted video file, the encryption key used for encryption, and the desired output file path. Here's how to use the library to decrypt an encrypted video:

const encryptedFilePath = "encrypted-video";
const encryptionKey = "your-secret-key";
const decryptedVideoPath = "decrypted-video";
videoEncryptor.decryptVideo(
  encryptedFilePath,
  encryptionKey,
  decryptedVideoPath
);

File Extensions

• If the provided outputPath for encryption doesn't include an extension, it will default to .encrypted.
• If the provided outputPath for decryption doesn't include an extension, it will default to .mp4.

Error Handling

The library includes robust error handling for various scenarios, such as invalid file paths, corrupted encrypted files, and existing output files. You can trust video-encryptor to handle unexpected situations gracefully.

Dependencies

• crypto-js: A dependable library for AES encryption.
