Rust implementation for the Crypt4GH encryption format.

CLI

Installation

From source

Requirements: Rust

sh cargo install crypt4gh

Binaries

In the releases page, You can find compiled binaries for:

Usage

```text Utility for the cryptographic GA4GH standard, reading from stdin and outputting to stdout.

USAGE: crypt4gh [FLAGS] [SUBCOMMAND]

FLAGS: -h, --help Prints help information -v, --verbose Sets the level of verbosity -V, --version Prints version information

SUBCOMMANDS: decrypt Decrypts the input using your secret key and the (optional) public key of the sender. encrypt Encrypts the input using your (optional) secret key and the public key of the recipient. help Prints this message or the help of the given subcommand(s) keygen Utility to create Crypt4GH-formatted keys. rearrange Rearranges the input according to the edit list packet. reencrypt Decrypts the input using your (optional) secret key and then it reencrypts it using the public key of the recipient. ```

Example

Alice and Bob generate both a pair of public/private keys.

sh crypt4gh keygen --sk alice.sec --pk alice.pub crypt4gh keygen --sk bob.sec --pk bob.pub

Bob encrypts a file for Alice:

sh crypt4gh encrypt --sk bob.sec --recipient_pk alice.pub < file > file.c4gh

Alice decrypts the encrypted file:

sh crypt4gh decrypt --sk alice.sec < file.c4gh

Library

Library installation

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

toml [dependencies] crypt4gh = "0.1.2"

Usage (in Rust)

Use the exposed functions:

```rust pub fn encrypt( recipientkeys: &HashSet, readbuffer: &mut R, writebuffer: &mut W, rangestart: usize, range_span: Option ) -> Result<()>

pub fn decrypt( keys: Vec, readbuffer: &mut R, writebuffer: &mut W, rangestart: usize, rangespan: Option, sender_pubkey: Option>, ) -> Result<()>

pub fn reencrypt( keys: Vec, recipientkeys: HashSet, readbuffer: &mut R, write_buffer: &mut W, trim: bool, ) -> Result<()>

pub fn rearrange( keys: Vec, readbuffer: &mut R, writebuffer: &mut W, rangestart: usize, rangespan: Option, ) -> Result<()> ```
