Build

with qmake

• git clone https://github.com/QuasarApp/Qt-Secret.git
• cd Qt-Secret
• git submodule update --init --recursive
• sudo apt install qt5-default
• qmake -r DEFINE+=WITHOUT_GUI Qt-Secret.pro

DEFINE+=WITHOUT_GUI fot build without gui example, if you want build gui example remove this line. For build the gui example you need to install qml controls 2 in you os. Try sudo apt install qml-module-qtquick-controls2 qtdeclarative5-dev qtdeclarative5-qtquick2-plugin

• make -j8

• make -j8
• make test #(for testing)

Include

for qmake projects

Main.pro:

TEMPLATE = subdirs
CONFIG += ordered

SUBDIRS += \
           Qt-Secret \
           MyProject

• Include in your MyProject.pro file the pri file of Qt-Secret library

• Rebuild yuor project

for other build system

• cd yourRepo
• git submodule add https://github.com/QuasarApp/Qt-Secret.git # add the repository of Qt-Secret into your repo like submodule
• git submodule update --init --recursive
• Add the rule for build Qt-Secret
• Add INCLUDEPATH and LIBS for your build system
• Rebuild yuor project

Detailed instructions of include in QtCreator see here.

Usage

RSA

Encryption and decryption of messages.

#include <qrsaencryption.h>
#include <QDebug>

bool testEncryptAndDecryptExample() {

    QByteArray pub, priv;
    QRSAEncryption e(QRSAEncryption::Rsa::RSA_2048);
    e.generatePairKey(pub, priv); // or other rsa size

    QByteArray msg = "test message";

    auto encryptMessage = e.encode(msg, pub);

    if (encryptMessage == msg)
        return false;

    auto decodeMessage = e.decode(encryptMessage, priv);

    return decodeMessage == msg;
}

int main() {
    if (testEncryptAndDecryptExample()) {
        qInfo() << "Success!";
    }
}

Signature and verification of the message signature.

#include <qrsaencryption.h>
#include <QDebug>

bool testExample() {
    QByteArray pub, priv;
    QRSAEncryption e(QRSAEncryption::Rsa::RSA_2048);
    e.generatePairKey(pub, priv); // or other rsa size

    QByteArray msg = "test message";

    auto signedMessage = e.signMessage(msg, priv);

    if (e.checkSignMessage(signedMessage, pub)) {
        qInfo() <<" message signed success";
        return true;
    }

    return false;

}

int main() {
    if (testExample()) {
        qInfo() <<"success!";
    }
}

AES

Sample code using a 128bit key in ECB mode

#include "qaesencryption.h"

QAESEncryption encryption(QAESEncryption::AES_128, QAESEncryption::ECB);
QByteArray encodedText = encryption.encode(plainText, key);

QByteArray decodedText = encryption.decode(encodedText, key);

Example for 256bit CBC using QString

#include <QCryptographicHash>
#include "qaesencryption.h"

QAESEncryption encryption(QAESEncryption::AES_256, QAESEncryption::CBC);

QString inputStr("The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), also known by its original name Rijndael "
                 "is a specification for the encryption of electronic data established by the U.S. "
                "National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in 2001");
QString key("your-string-key");
QString iv("your-IV-vector");

QByteArray hashKey = QCryptographicHash::hash(key.toLocal8Bit(), QCryptographicHash::Sha256);
QByteArray hashIV = QCryptographicHash::hash(iv.toLocal8Bit(), QCryptographicHash::Md5);

QByteArray encodeText = encryption.encode(inputStr.toLocal8Bit(), hashKey, hashIV);
QByteArray decodeText = encryption.decode(encodeText, hashKey, hashIV);

QString decodedString = QString(encryption.removePadding(decodeText));

//decodedString == inputStr !!! 

Example via static invocation

Static invocation without creating instances, 256 bit key, ECB mode, starting from QString text/key

#include <QCryptographicHash>
#include "qaesencryption.h"

QString inputStr("The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), also known by its original name Rijndael "
                 "is a specification for the encryption of electronic data established by the U.S. "
                "National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in 2001");
QString key("your-string-key");
QString iv("your-IV-vector");

QByteArray hashKey = QCryptographicHash::hash(key.toLocal8Bit(), QCryptographicHash::Sha256);
QByteArray hashIV = QCryptographicHash::hash(iv.toLocal8Bit(), QCryptographicHash::Md5);

//Static invocation
QByteArray encrypted = QAESEncryption::Crypt(QAESEncryption::AES_256, QAESEncryption::CBC, 
                        inputStr.toLocal8Bit(), hashKey, hashIV);
//...
// Removal of Padding via Static function
QString decodedString = QString(QAESEncryption::RemovePadding(decodeText));
