seco-rw

seco-rw

A handy wrapper for reading/writing secure containers. Caches the file's blobKey & metadata to avoid expensive scrypt operations.

Usage

import createSecoRW from 'seco-rw'

const somefile = createSecoRW('somefile.seco', 'opensesame', {
  appName: 'Exodus',
  appVersion: '1.0.0'
})

await somefile.write('Hello World!')
await somefile.read().toString('utf8')
// -> Hello World!

createSecoRW(file, passphrase, header)

• file (String) Path to the secure-container
• passphrase (String | Buffer) Passphrase for the secure-container
• header (Object) Data to write to the secure-container header
  • appName (String) Name of your app
  • appVersion (String) Your app's version number

write(data)

• data (String | Buffer) Data to write to the file

Returns a Promise that resolves when the file has been written.

read()

Returns a Promise, resolving to a Buffer of the file data.

destroy()

Destroys the instance and zero-fills the internal cache buffer. Future calls to read() or write() will error out.

If you are using a Buffer passphrase, you may also want to call .fill(0) to zero-fill that too.
