This project is deprecated and might not work with the latest versions of Node. Node Crypto module provides the same functionality, so this module isn't even needed.
cipherstream is a thin streaming layer for encryption/decryption in Node.JS.
npm install cipherstream
Require as cipherstream
var cipherstream = require("cipherstream");
CipherStream creates a Stream object which takes data in and encrypts it.
new CipherStream(password[, algorithm]) where algorithm defaults to AES192.
Example:
var cipherstream = require("cipherstream"),
fs = require("fs");
fs.createReadStream("plain.txt").pipe(new cipherstream.CipherStream("secret")).pipe(fs.writeReadStream("secret.txt"));
DecipherStream creates a Stream object which takes encrypted data in and decrypts it.
new DecipherStream(password[, algorithm]) where algorithm defaults to AES192.
Example:
var cipherstream = require("cipherstream"),
fs = require("fs");
fs.createReadStream("secret.txt").pipe(new cipherstream.DecipherStream("secret")).pipe(fs.writeReadStream("plain.txt"));
hmac is a simple wrapper function to create SHA-256 hmac values.
cipherstream.hmac(data, key) → String
