thank you so much i gave you credit in my dapp
how to store a public and private key in a single-string and later use it in encrypt/decrypt logic
what i had in mind is this
const publicKey = "";
const encryptedData = crypto.publicEncrypt(
{
key: Buffer.from(publicKey),
......
}
tried using this but got error : Error: error:0909006C:PEM routines:get_name:no start line
Hi @sohamkamani,
I am new in node.js. Can you please share your package.json file or let me know what module to be installed via npm to make your code working. What module to install for - const crypto = require("crypto")? When I searched https://www.npmjs.com/ for crypto, I didn't find anything matching exactly. Please share the URL of the module name in npmjs.com if possible.
@mainakaich crypto is a native module from Node.
https://nodejs.org/api/crypto.html
Thank you so much. God bless you.
This is 20204 and this package crypto is now depricated. So, I'm not sure if it good to use it. coz deprecated package can coz problem, so I think you should not use it anymore and it's better to find alternative for this.
@Bugslogger; crypto-js is deprecated, however, this gist is using the crypto module native in Node, which is not deprecated.
hi , my module is angular js, Can i run this in angular
