crypto_proto

Welcome to my crypto_proto-library 🎉

What this library is:

This library provides some abstractions for cryptographic primitives and high-level primitives based upon them. The low-level implementations are provided by libsodium.

These traits and algorithms are implemented:

• Cipher/AeadCipher: ChaCha20 IETF, ChaCha20Poly1305 IETF, AES-GCM
• CipherStream: NoiseSocket (only the symmetric-encrypted payloads) (with either AES-GCM or ChaCha20Poly1305)
• Hash: SHA-256, SHA-512, Blake2b
• Kdf: HKDF Extract & Expand (with either HMAC-SHA-256 or HMAC-SHA-512)
• Mac: HMAC (with either SHA-256 or SHA-512), Poly1305
• Pbkdf: Argon2i v1.3, Argon2id v1.3

Most algorithms can be disabled independently from each other by using a custom feature-set (see Cargo.toml).

Dependencies

libsodium for the cryptographic algorithms, pkg-config to find libsodium and my etrace-crate for error-handling.

Build Documentation and Library:

To build and open the documentation, go into the project's root-directory and run cargo doc --release --open

To build this library, change into the projects root-directory and run cargo build --release; you can find the build in target/release.

You should also always run the tests using cargo test. Use cargo test -- --ignored to also run the expensive tests.
