age-encryption is a TypeScript implementation of the age file encryption format.

All low-level cryptographic operations are implemented with libsodium.js.

⚠️ This project is experimental. The author has near-zero JavaScript experience and help is very welcome. ⚠️

Installation

npm install age-encryption

Usage

import * as age from "age-encryption"

await (async() => {
    const identity = await age.generateIdentity()
    const recipient = await age.identityToRecipient(identity)

    console.log(identity)
    console.log(recipient)

    const e = new age.Encrypter()
    await e.addRecipient(recipient)
    const ciphertext = await e.encrypt("Hello, age!")

    const d = new age.Decrypter()
    await d.addIdentity(identity)
    const out = await d.decrypt(ciphertext, "text")

    console.log(out)
})()

await (async() => {
    const e = new age.Encrypter()
    e.setPassphrase("burst-swarm-slender-curve-ability-various-crystal-moon-affair-three")
    const ciphertext = await e.encrypt("Hello, age!")

    const d = new age.Decrypter()
    d.addPassphrase("burst-swarm-slender-curve-ability-various-crystal-moon-affair-three")
    const out = await d.decrypt(ciphertext, "text")

    console.log(out)
})()
