Crypt

Cryptographic utilities made easy for Crystal lang.

This module provides cryptographic features, with abstractions on top of OpenSSL and Crypto (included in the Crystal standard-library).

Installation

1. Add the dependency to your shard.yml:

dependencies:
  crypt:
    github: nicolab/crystal-crypt

2. Run shards install

Usage

To optimize the size of the final binary, features are decoupled, so each module must be included when you need it.

OpenSSL Cipher: Encrypt / Decrypt

API doc: Crypt::Crypter

require "crypt"
require "crypt/crypter"
require "crypt/random"

data = "super secret data"
secret = Crypt.random_string(32)
crypter = Crypt::Crypter.new(secret)

# Data encrypted
encrypted = crypter.encrypt(data)

# Data decrypted
decrypted_bytes = crypter.decrypt(encrypted)

# Decrypted data (Bytes)
puts decrypted_bytes

# Convert Bytes to String
puts String.new(decrypted_bytes)

With signature

Encrypt with a crypto signature:

require "crypt"
require "crypt/crypter"
require "crypt/random"

data = "super secret data"
secret = Crypt.random_string(32)
crypter = Crypt::Crypter.new(secret)

# Data encrypted and signed
encrypted = crypter.encrypt(data, :sign)

# Data verified and decrypted
decrypted_bytes = crypter.decrypt(encrypted, :sign)

# Decrypted data (Bytes)
puts decrypted_bytes

# Convert Bytes to String
puts String.new(decrypted_bytes)

Signer

Sign and verify given data.

require "crypt"
require "crypt/signer"

data = "Hello Crystal!"
secret = "super secret"
signer = Crypt::Signer.new(secret)

# Sign the data
signed_data = signer.sign(data)

# => Encoded String, URL and filename safe alphabet (RFC 4648).
puts signed_data

# Verify the data integrity and get it
puts signer.verify(signed_data)         # => "Hello Crystal!"
puts signer.verify(signed_data) == data # => true

API doc: Crypt::Signer

Bcrypt password

Generate, read and verify Crypto::Bcrypt hashes:

require "crypt"
require "crypt/bcrypt"

password = Crypt.create_bcrypt_password("super secret", cost: 10)
# => $2a$10$rI4xRiuAN2fyiKwynO6PPuorfuoM4L2PVv6hlnVJEmNLjqcibAfHq

password.verify("wrong secret") # => false
password.verify("super secret") # => true

API doc: Crypt.create_bcrypt_password

---

Loads a Bcrypt password hash.

require "crypt"
require "crypt/bcrypt"

password = Crypt.load_bcrypt_password(
  "$2a$10$X6rw/jDiLBuzHV./JjBNXe8/Po4wTL0fhdDNdAdjcKN/Fup8tGCya"
)
password.version # => "2a"
password.salt    # => "X6rw/jDiLBuzHV./JjBNXe"
password.digest  # => "8/Po4wTL0fhdDNdAdjcKN/Fup8tGCya"

# password.verify("some secret")

API doc: Crypt.load_bcrypt_password

Secure random

require "crypt"
require "crypt/random"

See API doc:

• API doc: Crypt.random_string
• API doc: Crypt.random_bytes
• API doc: Crypt.random_bytes_string

Key derivation

Key derivation PKCS5/PBKDF2 (Password-Based Key Derivation Function 2)

require "crypt"
require "crypt/key-deriv"
require "crypt/random"

password = "My password"
salt = Crypt.random_string(16)

# key size: 64
Crypt.key_deriv(password, salt)

# key size: 10
Crypt.key_deriv(password, salt, key_size: 10)

# iteration: 2000
Crypt.key_deriv(password, salt, iter: 2000)

# algo: sha256
Crypt.key_deriv(password, salt, algo: :sha256)

API doc: Crypt.key_deriv
