Node.js RSA library
npm install node-rsaNode.js RSA library
Based on jsbn library from Tom Wu http://www-cs-students.stanford.edu/~tjw/jsbn/
* Pure JavaScript
* No needed OpenSSL
* Generating keys
* Supports long messages for encrypt/decrypt
* Signing and verifying
``javascript
const NodeRSA = require('node-rsa');
const key = new NodeRSA({b: 512});
const text = 'Hello RSA!';
const encrypted = key.encrypt(text, 'base64');
console.log('encrypted: ', encrypted);
const decrypted = key.decrypt(encrypted, 'utf8');
console.log('decrypted: ', decrypted);
`
`shell`
npm install node-rsa
> Requires nodejs >= 8.11.1
`shell`
npm test
This library developed and tested primary for Node.js, but it still can work in browsers with browserify.
javascript
const NodeRSA = require('node-rsa');const key = new NodeRSA([keyData, [format]], [options]);
`* keyData —
— parameters for generating key or the key in one of supported formats.
* format — {string} — format for importing key. See more details about formats in Export/Import section.
* options — {object} — additional settings.#### Options
You can specify some options by second/third constructor argument, or over
key.setOptions() method.* environment — working environment (default autodetect):
*
'browser' — will run pure js implementation of RSA algorithms.
* 'node' for nodejs >= 0.10.x or io.js >= 1.x — provide some native methods like sign/verify and encrypt/decrypt.
* encryptionScheme — padding scheme for encrypt/decrypt. Can be 'pkcs1_oaep' or 'pkcs1'. Default 'pkcs1_oaep'.
* signingScheme — scheme used for signing and verifying. Can be 'pkcs1' or 'pss' or 'scheme-hash' format string (eg 'pss-sha1'). Default 'pkcs1-sha256', or, if chosen pss: 'pss-sha1'.> Notice: This lib supporting next hash algorithms:
'md5', 'ripemd160', 'sha1', 'sha256', 'sha512' in browser and node environment and additional 'md4', 'sha', 'sha224', 'sha384' in node only.#### Creating "empty" key
`javascript
const key = new NodeRSA();
`#### Generate new 512bit-length key
javascript
const key = new NodeRSA({b: 512});
`Also you can use next method:
javascript
key.generateKeyPair([bits], [exp]);
`* bits —
— key size in bits. 2048 by default.
* exp — {int} — public exponent. 65537 by default.#### Load key from PEM string
`javascript
const key = new NodeRSA('-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----\n'+
'MIIBOQIBAAJAVY6quuzCwyOWzymJ7C4zXjeV/232wt2ZgJZ1kHzjI73wnhQ3WQcL\n'+
'DFCSoi2lPUW8/zspk0qWvPdtp6Jg5Lu7hwIDAQABAkBEws9mQahZ6r1mq2zEm3D/\n'+

'Es+KCn25OKXR/FJ5fu6A6A+MptABL3r8SEjlpLc=\n'+
'-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----');
`$3
javascript
key.importKey(keyData, [format]);
key.exportKey([format]);
`* keyData —
— may be:
* key in PEM string
* Buffer containing PEM string
* Buffer containing DER encoded data
* Object contains key components
* format — {string} — format id for export/import.#### Format string syntax
Format string composed of several parts:
scheme-[key_type]-[output_type]
Scheme — NodeRSA supports multiple format schemes for import/export keys:
*
— public key starts from '-----BEGIN RSA PUBLIC KEY-----' header and private key starts from '-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----' header
* 'pkcs8' — public key starts from '-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----' header and private key starts from '-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----' header
* 'openssh' — public key starts from 'ssh-rsa' header and private key starts from '-----BEGIN OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY-----' header
* 'components' — use it for import/export key from/to raw components (see example below). For private key, importing data should contain all private key components, for public key: only public exponent (e) and modulus (n). All components (except e) should be Buffer, e could be Buffer or just normal Number. Key type — can be
'private' or 'public'. Default 'private'
Output type — can be: *
— Base64 encoded string with header and footer. Used by default.
* 'der' — Binary encoded key data.> Notice: For import, if keyData is PEM string or buffer containing string, you can do not specify format, but if you provide keyData as DER you must specify it in format string.
Shortcuts and examples
*
'private' or 'pkcs1' or 'pkcs1-private' == 'pkcs1-private-pem' — private key encoded in pcks1 scheme as pem string.
* 'public' or 'pkcs8-public' == 'pkcs8-public-pem' — public key encoded in pcks8 scheme as pem string.
* 'pkcs8' or 'pkcs8-private' == 'pkcs8-private-pem' — private key encoded in pcks8 scheme as pem string.
* 'pkcs1-der' == 'pkcs1-private-der' — private key encoded in pcks1 scheme as binary buffer.
* 'pkcs8-public-der' — public key encoded in pcks8 scheme as binary buffer.Code example
`javascript
const keyData = '-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY----- ... -----END PUBLIC KEY-----';
key.importKey(keyData, 'pkcs8');
const publicDer = key.exportKey('pkcs8-public-der');
const privateDer = key.exportKey('pkcs1-der');

#### Key testing
javascript
key.isPrivate();
key.isPublic([strict]);
`
strict — — if true method will return false if key pair have private exponent. Default false.`javascript
key.isEmpty();
`
Return if key pair doesn't have any data.#### Key info
`javascript
key.getKeySize();
`
Return key size in bits.javascript
key.getMaxMessageSize();
`
Return max data size for encrypt in bytes.$3
javascript
key.encrypt(buffer, [encoding], [source_encoding]);
key.encryptPrivate(buffer, [encoding], [source_encoding]); // use private key for encryption
`
Return encrypted data.
* buffer —
— data for encrypting, may be string, Buffer, or any object/array. Arrays and objects will encoded to JSON string first.
* encoding — {string} — encoding for output result, may be 'buffer', 'binary', 'hex' or 'base64'. Default 'buffer'.
* source_encoding — {string} — source encoding, works only with string buffer. Can take standard Node.js Buffer encodings (hex, utf8, base64, etc). 'utf8' by default.
`javascript
key.decrypt(buffer, [encoding]);
key.decryptPublic(buffer, [encoding]); // use public key for decryption
`
Return decrypted data.
* buffer —
— data for decrypting. Takes Buffer object or base64 encoded string.
* encoding — {string} — encoding for result string. Can also take 'buffer' for raw Buffer object, or 'json' for automatic JSON.parse result. Default 'buffer'.> Notice:
encryptPrivate and decryptPublic using only pkcs1 padding type 1 (not random)$3
`javascript
key.sign(buffer, [encoding], [source_encoding]);
`
Return signature for buffer. All the arguments are the same as for method.`javascript
key.verify(buffer, signature, [source_encoding], [signature_encoding])
`
Return result of check, or false.
* buffer —
{buffer} — data for check, same as encrypt method.
* signature — {string} — signature for check, result of sign method.
* source_encoding — {string} — same as for encrypt method.
* signature_encoding — {string} — encoding of given signature. May be 'buffer', 'binary', 'hex' or 'base64'. Default 'buffer'.Contributing
