pwsec - support for password-based encryption

Latest version Documentation License Build unsafe forbidden

Usage

Add pwsec to the dependencies section in your project's Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
pwsec = "0.5"

Capabilities

pwsec uses an (optionally authenticated) encryption scheme.

Two closely related variants are provided currently, Chacha and ChachaB64.

Alternative variants with similar API and based on other encryption algorithms can be added on demand.

Example with ChachaB64 and storage in a file
