Encryption
==========

[](#encryption)

Introduction
------------

[](#introduction)

ThinkPHP's encryption services provide a simple, convenient interface for encrypting and decrypting text via OpenSSL using AES-256 and AES-128 encryption.

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

[](#installation)

You may install **think-encryption** via the Composer package manager:

```
composer require lingyun/think-encryption

```

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

Before using ThinkPHP's encrypter, you must set the `key` configuration option in your `config/encrypter.php` configuration file. This configuration value is driven by the `ENCRYPTER.KEY` environment variable. You should use the `php think encrypter:generate` command to generate this variable's value since the `key:generate` command will use PHP's secure random bytes generator to build a cryptographically secure key for your application.

Using The Encrypter
-------------------

[](#using-the-encrypter)

#### Encrypting A Value

[](#encrypting-a-value)

You may encrypt a value using the `encryptString` method provided by the `Crypt` facade. All encrypted values are encrypted using OpenSSL and the AES-256-CBC cipher.Furthermore, all encrypted values are signed with a message authentication code (MAC). The integrated message authentication code will prevent the decryption of any values that have been tampered with by malicious users:

```
use think\facade\Crypt;
use think\encryption\exception\EncryptException;

try {
    $encrypted = Crypt::encryptString($valueToBeEncrypted);
} catch (EncryptException $e) {
    //
}

```

#### Decrypting A Value

[](#decrypting-a-value)

You may decrypt values using the `decryptString` method provided by the `Crypt` facade. If the value can not be properly decrypted, such as when the message authentication code is invalid, an `think\encryption\exception\DecryptException` will be thrown:

```
use think\encryption\exception\DecryptException;
use think\facade\Crypt;

try {
    $decrypted = Crypt::decryptString($encryptedValue);
} catch (DecryptException $e) {
    //
}

```
