##Requirements Good mood

##Features

  • Easy to use
  • Convenient extensions for String and NSData

##What implemented?

Hash

#####Cipher

#####Message authenticators

#####Cipher block mode

  • Electronic codebook (ECB)
  • Cipher-block chaining (CBC)
  • Cipher feedback (CFB)
  • Counter (CTR)

#####Data padding

##Why Why? Because I can.

##Contribution

For latest version, please check develop branch. This is latest development version that will be merged into master branch at some point.

##Installation

To install CryptoSwift, add it as a submodule to your project (on the top level project directory):

git submodule add https://github.com/krzyzanowskim/CryptoSwift.git

####Embedded Framework

Embedded frameworks require a minimum deployment target of iOS 8 or OS X Mavericks (10.9). Drag the CryptoSwift.xcodeproj file into your Xcode project, and add appropriate framework as a dependency to your target. Now select your App and choose the General tab for the app target. Drag framework to Embedded Binaries

#####iOS, OSX, watchOS

In the project, you'll find three targets, configured for each supported SDK:

  • CryptoSwift iOS
  • CryptoSwift OSX
  • CryptoSwift watchOS

You may need to choose the one you need to build CryptoSwift.framework for your application.

####CryptoSwift.framework

Alternatively, you can build the Universal Framework and link it in your Xcode project. To do that please run build.sh script and find resulting frameworks in Framework directory.

Looking for version for Swift 1.2? check branch swift12, it's there.

####CocoaPods

You can use CocoaPods.

source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
platform :ios, '8.0'
use_frameworks!

pod 'CryptoSwift'

or for newest version from specified branch of code:

pod 'CryptoSwift', :git => "https://github.com/krzyzanowskim/CryptoSwift", :branch => "master"

####Carthage You can use Carthage. Specify in Cartfile:

github "krzyzanowskim/CryptoSwift"

Run carthage to build the framework and drag the built CryptoSwift.framework into your Xcode project. Follow build instructions

##Usage

import CryptoSwift

For your convenience you should use extensions methods like encrypt(), decrypt(), md5(), sha1() and so on.

Hashing a data or array of bytes (aka Array<UInt8>)

/* Hash enum usage */
let input:[UInt8] = [49, 50, 51]

let output = input.md5()
// alternatively: let output = CryptoSwift.Hash.md5(input).calculate()

print(output.toHexString())
let data = NSData()

let hash = data.md5()
let hash = data.sha1()
let hash = data.sha224()
let hash = data.sha256()
let hash = data.sha384()
let hash = data.sha512()
	
let crc32 = data.crc32()
let crc16 = data.crc16()

print(hash.toHexString())

Hashing a String and printing result

let hash = "123".md5()

Some content-encryption algorithms assume the input length is a multiple of k octets, where k is greater than one. For such algorithms, the input shall be padded.

let paddedData = PKCS7().add(bytes, AES.blockSize)

Working with Ciphers

ChaCha20

let encrypted: [UInt8] = ChaCha20(key: key, iv: iv).encrypt(message)
let decrypted: [UInt8] = ChaCha20(key: key, iv: iv).decrypt(encrypted)

AES

Notice regarding padding: Manual padding of data is optional and CryptoSwift by default always will add PKCS7 padding before encryption, and remove after decryption when Cipher enum is used. If you need manually disable/enable padding, you can do this by setting parameter for encrypt()/decrypt() on class AES.

Basic:

let input = NSData()
let encrypted = try! input.encrypt(AES(key: "secret0key000000", iv:"0123456789012345"))

let input: [UInt8] = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]
input.encrypt(AES(key: "secret0key000000", iv:"0123456789012345", blockMode: .CBC))

Encrypt String to Base64 string result:

// Encrypt string and get Base64 representation of result
let base64: String = try! "my secret string".encrypt(AES(key: "secret0key000000", iv: "0123456789012345"))

...under the hood, this is [UInt8] converted to NSData converted to Base64 string representation:

let encryptedBytes: [UInt8] = try "my secret string".encrypt(AES(key: "secret0key000000", iv: "0123456789012345")

let base64 = NSData(bytes: encryptedBytes).base64EncodedStringWithOptions(NSDataBase64EncodingOptions.Encoding64CharacterLineLength)

Advanced:

let input: [UInt8] = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]

let key: [UInt8] = [0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00]
let iv: [UInt8] = AES.randomIV(AES.blockSize)

do {
    let encrypted: [UInt8] = try AES(key: key, iv: iv, blockMode: .CBC).encrypt(input, padding: PKCS7())
    let decrypted: [UInt8] = try AES(key: key, iv: iv, blockMode: .CBC).decrypt(input, padding: PKCS7())
} catch AES.Error.BlockSizeExceeded {
    // block size exceeded
} catch {
    // some error
}	

AES without data padding

let input: [UInt8] = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]
let encrypted: [UInt8] = try! AES(key: "secret0key000000", iv:"0123456789012345", blockMode: .CBC).encrypt(input)

Using extensions

let plain = NSData()
let encrypted: NSData = try! plain.encrypt(ChaCha20(key: key, iv: iv))
let decrypted: NSData = try! encrypted.decrypt(ChaCha20(key: key, iv: iv))
// plain == decrypted

Message authenticators

// Calculate Message Authentication Code (MAC) for message
let mac: [UInt8] = try! Authenticator.Poly1305(key: key).authenticate(input)

#####Conversion between NSData and [UInt8]

For you convenience CryptoSwift provide two function to easily convert array of bytes to NSData and other way around:

let data: NSData = NSData(bytes: [0x01, 0x02, 0x03])
let bytes:[UInt8] = data.arrayOfBytes()
