A Hybrid Public Key Encryption (HPKE) module extension for a hybrid post-quantum KEM, X25519Kyber768Draft00
Documentation: jsr.io | pages (only for the latest ver.)
@hpke/hybridkem-x25519-kyber768
need to be used with
@hpke/core,
which can be installed in the same manner as desribed below.
You can install the package with npm, yarn or pnpm.
# Using npm:
npm install @hpke/hybridkem-x25519-kyber768
yarn add @hpke/hybridkem-x25519-kyber768
pnpm install @hpke/hybridkem-x25519-kyber768
# Using jsr:
npx jsr add @hpke/hybridkem-x25519-kyber768
yarn dlx jsr add @hpke/hybridkem-x25519-kyber768
pnpm dlx jsr add @hpke/hybridkem-x25519-kyber768
The above manner can be used with other JavaScript runtimes that support npm, such as Cloudflare Workers and Bun.
Then, you can use the module from code like this:
import { Aes128Gcm, CipherSuite, HkdfSha256 } from "@hpke/core";
import { HybridkemX25519Kyber768 } from "@hpke/hybridkem-x25519-kyber768";
For Deno, it is recommended to use the jsr.io registry.
deno add jsr:@hpke/hybridkem-x25519-kyber768
Followings are how to use this module with typical CDNs. Other CDNs can be used as well.
Using esm.sh:
<!-- use a specific version -->
<script type="module">
import {
Aes128Gcm,
CipherSuite,
HkdfSha256,
} from "https://esm.sh/@hpke/core@<SEMVER>";
import {
HybridkemX25519Kyber768,
} from "https://esm.sh/@hpke/hybridkem-x25519-kyber768@<SEMVER>";
// ...
</script>
<!-- use the latest stable version -->
<script type="module">
import {
Aes128Gcm,
CipherSuite,
HkdfSha256,
} from "https://esm.sh/@hpke/core";
import {
HybridkemX25519Kyber768,
} from "https://esm.sh/@hpke/hybridkem-x25519-kyber768";
// ...
</script>
Using unpkg:
<!-- use a specific version -->
<script type="module">
import {
Aes128Gcm,
CipherSuite,
HkdfSha256,
} from "https://unpkg.com/@hpke/core@<SEMVER>/esm/mod.js";
import {
HybridkemX25519Kyber768,
} from "https://unpkg.com/@hpke/hybridkem-x25519-kyber768@<SEMVER>/esm/mod.js";
// ...
</script>
This section shows some typical usage examples.
