var fs = require('fs');
var keyContent = fs.readFileSync('something.key');
var encryptedBytes = fs.readFileSync('somithing.txt');
// keyContent is a string of the aes-keys content
var keyContent = fs.readFileSync(keyFile);
var view = new DataView(keyContent.buffer);
var key.bytes = new Uint32Array([
view.getUint32(0),
view.getUint32(4),
view.getUint32(8),
view.getUint32(12)
]);
key.iv = new Uint32Array([
0, 0, 0, 0
]);
var d = new Decrypter(
encryptedBytes,
key.bytes,
key.iv,
function(err, decryptedBytes) {
// err always null
