legierski/AES
=============

[](#legierskiaes)

Perform AES-256 (CBC) encryption/decryption compatible with OpenSSL, CryptoJS, Gibberish AES and possibly other libraries.

Can be used to encrypt data in PHP and decrypt in JavaScript, or vice versa.

Code from here:

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP 5.3.3 or later
- OpenSSL extension for PHP

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

In `composer.json`:

```
{
    "require": {
        "legierski/aes": "0.1.*"
    }
}
```

Encrypting data
---------------

[](#encrypting-data)

```
$aes = new \Legierski\AES\AES;

$encrypted = $aes->encrypt('Very sensitive data', 'password');

// OpenSSL will truncate rows longer than 76 characters, so let's wrap our encrypted data
$encryptedForOpenSSL = $aes->wrapForOpenSSL($encrypted);
```

Decrypting data
---------------

[](#decrypting-data)

```
$aes = new \Legierski\AES\AES;

$decrypted = $aes->decrypt('U2FsdGVkX1+nnmEfHgoGQpwSPcT+mDZHxhr8XhEsmIvT2JAxsIzsRocO6x1PErrF', 'password');
```

Encrypting/decrypting with OpenSSL
----------------------------------

[](#encryptingdecrypting-with-openssl)

```
$ echo "Very sensitive data" | openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -a -k password

$ echo "U2FsdGVkX1+nnmEfHgoGQpwSPcT+mDZHxhr8XhEsmIvT2JAxsIzsRocO6x1PErrF" | openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -a -d -k password
```

Encrypting/decrypting with CryptoJS
-----------------------------------

[](#encryptingdecrypting-with-cryptojs)

```
var encrypted = CryptoJS.AES.encrypt('Very sensitive data', 'password').toString();

var decrypted = CryptoJS.AES.decrypt('U2FsdGVkX1+nnmEfHgoGQpwSPcT+mDZHxhr8XhEsmIvT2JAxsIzsRocO6x1PErrF', 'password').toString(CryptoJS.enc.Utf8);
```

Encrypting/decrypting with Gibberish AES
----------------------------------------

[](#encryptingdecrypting-with-gibberish-aes)

```
var encrypted = GibberishAES.enc('Very sensitive data', 'password');

var decrypted = GibberishAES.dec('U2FsdGVkX1+nnmEfHgoGQpwSPcT+mDZHxhr8XhEsmIvT2JAxsIzsRocO6x1PErrF', 'password');
```

Testing
-------

[](#testing)

Run unit tests:

```
$ ./vendor/bin/phpunit
```

Test compliance with [PSR2 coding style guide](http://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-2/):

```
$ ./vendor/bin/phpcs --standard=PSR2 ./src
```
