TThis is a simple package for laravel to encrypt decrypt api request & response in both ends, Backend & Javascript.

📦 Installation
--------------

[](#package-installation)

Via Composer

```
$ composer require tzsk/crypton
```

Publish config file

```
$ php artisan crypton:publish
```

Add an environment variable in the `.env` file

```
CRYPTON_KEY=your-encryption-key
```

👀 Keep in Mind
--------------

[](#eyes-keep-in-mind)

> **TIP:** You can easily generate an encryption key by running `php artisan key:generate` then copy the generated key. Then again run: `php artisan key:generate` to make the key used by crypton and the default application key different.

**WARNING: DO NOT USE THE SAME `APP_KEY` AND `CRYPTON_KEY`**

🔥 Usage
-------

[](#fire-usage)

Start off by adding a Middleware in the `app/Http/Kernel.php` file.

```
$routeMiddleware = [
    'crypton' => \Tzsk\Crypton\Middleware\EncryptRequestResponse::class,
];
```

Now, add this middleware to any api routes or groups.

Example:

```
Route::middleware('crypton')->post('some-endpoint', function(Request $request) {
    return Post::paginate($request->per_page ? : 10);
});
```

That's it.
