Two-way encryption (encrypt and decrypt) data using PHP with OpenSSL

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

[](#installation)

`composer require martinusso/opencrypt`

Tips
----

[](#tips)

- *$secretKey* should have been previously generated in a cryptographically safe way, like [openssl\_random\_pseudo\_bytes](http://php.net/manual/en/function.openssl-random-pseudo-bytes.php). OpenCrypt has a static method `OpenCrypt::generateKey()` for this.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
$password = "OpenCrypt";

// Should have been previously generated in a cryptographically safe way
$secretKey = 'SECRET_KEY';

// You can pass the IV as argument or it is generated automatically
$openCrypt = new OpenCrypt($secretKey [, string $iv ]);

// get the IV
$iv = $openCrypt->iv();

// encrypt
$encryptedPassword = $openCrypt->encrypt($password);
// $encryptedPassword = 'GWw3bqL7FqjmRs0yyIR/8A=='

// decrypt
$decryptedPassword = $openCrypt->decrypt($encryptedPassword);
// $decryptedPassword = 'OpenCrypt'

```

### generate IV

[](#generate-iv)

OpenCrypt offers a static method to generate a safe IV:

```
$iv = OpenCrypt::generateIV();

```

### generate key

[](#generate-key)

it is also possible to generate a safe secret key:

```
$secretKey = OpenCrypt::generateKey();

```
