connect-crypto
Advanced tools
npm install connect-crypto
decrypt predefined url parameters and reassigns the decrypted value to request.query
var queryDecryptor = require('connect-crypto').queryDecryptor;
var mypassword = '123123Foo';
// the server
var server = connect()
.use(connect.query())
.use(queryDecryptor('p', mypassword)) // decrypt any url that has ?p=encryptedData (will turn to ?p=decryptedData)
.listen(3000);
// the server
var server = connect()
.use(connect.query())
.use(queryDecryptor(['p1', 'p2'], mypassword)) // several querystring params can be decrypted
.listen(3000);
further customization can be achieved by supplying an options object:
var options = {
algorithm: which algo is used for encyption/decryption, defaults to 'aes192'
debug: debug mode will write errors from decipher.final() to console and alert if
query middleware isn't installed
decryptedDataEncoding: encoding used to output decrypted data - must be the same encoding used in
the encyption process - defaults to 'ascii'
encryptedDataEncoding: encoding used for encrypted data - defaults to 'base64'
};
connect()
.use(connect.query())
.use(queryDecryptor('p', mypassword, options));
when using the options object, one may specify only a subset of the above options
