README

Easy-AES

Description

  • Easy Encryption and Decryption using AES-256 (Counter Mode)
  • Any string of length 5 to 32 characters can be used as a key
  • Keys are hashed using MD5 in order to meet the key-length requirement of AES-256
  • Useful for verification tokens, and use cases where text has to be encrypted repeatedly

Installation

npm install easy-aes

yarn add easy-aes

Disclaimer

  • Please do not use this package for encrypting passwords.
  • Use bcrypt or some other hashing library for secure storage of passwords

Usage

import EasyAES from "easy-aes";
const aes = new EasyAES("secret-key");

const encrypted = aes.encrypt("plain-text");
const decrypted = aes.decrypt(encrypted);

const EasyAES = require("easy-aes");
const aes = new EasyAES("secret-key");

const encrypted = aes.encrypt("plain-text");
const decrypted = aes.decrypt(encrypted);
