OpenSSL-Pharo

This package provides Pharo bindings to OpenSSL. The primary scope is libcrypto, OpenSSL's library of cryptographic functions. Contributions via pull requests are welcome.

Update Nov 2020

Updated for Pharo 9. Tested on Linux, to be tested on Mac and Windows.

To load, for OpenSSL 1.0.x:

Metacello new
  baseline: 'OpenSSL';
  repository: 'github://PierceNg/OpenSSL-Pharo:openssl_1_0_pharo9/src-st';
  load.

To load, for OpenSSL 1.1.x:

Metacello new
  baseline: 'OpenSSL';
  repository: 'github://PierceNg/OpenSSL-Pharo:openssl_1_1_pharo9/src-st';
  load.

Update Jun 2020

Pharo is transitioning from OpenSSL 1.0.x to OpenSSL 1.1.1. There are C API changes between the two OpenSSL versions that break many tests, basic things like XXX_create() becoming XXX_new(), XXX_init() becoming XXX_reset() etc. As such, I've created the branches openssl_1_0 and openssl_1_1 to match the versions used by Pharo.

Available Functionality

• Message digests and HMAC functions for RIPEMD160, SHA256 and SHA512, based on the EVP API. See LcEvpMessageDigestTest and its subclasses for examples.

• RSA cryptography based on the EVP API. See LcEvpPublicKeyTest for how to sign and verify data.

To Do

As of Dec 2019:

• PKCS7 signature verification
