isomorphic-webcrypto
webcrypto library for Node, React Native and IE11+
What?
There's a great Node polyfill for the Web Crypto API, but it's not isomorphic.
IE11 and versions of Safari < 11 use an older version of the spec, so the browser implementation includes a webcrypto-shim to iron out the differences. You'll still need to provide your own Promise polyfill.
There's currently no native crypto support in React Native, so the Microsoft Research library is exposed.
Install
npm install isomorphic-webcrypto
Usage
There's a simple hashing example below, but there are many more WebCrypto examples here. This example requires you to npm install hex-lite
.
const crypto = require('isomorphic-webcrypto')
const hex = require('hex-lite')
// or
import crypto from 'isomorphic-webcrypto'
import hex from 'hex-lite'
crypto.subtle.digest(
{ name: 'SHA-256' },
new Uint8Array([1,2,3]).buffer
)
.then(hash => {
// hashes are usually represented as hex strings
// hex-lite makes this easier
const hashString = hex.fromBuffer(hash);
})
React Native
React Native support is implemented using the Microsoft Research library. The React Native environment only supports Math.random()
, so react-native-securerandom is used to provide proper entropy. This is handled automatically, except for crypto.getRandomValues()
, which requires you wait:
const crypto = require('isomorphic-webcrypto')
(async () => {
// Only needed for crypto.getRandomValues
// but only wait once, future calls are secure
await crypto.ensureSecure();
const array = new Uint8Array(1);
crypto.getRandomValues(array);
const safeValue = array[0];
})()
Working React Native examples:
- Using create-react-native-app with Expo
- Using an ejected create-react-native-app
I just want to drop in a script tag
You should use the webcrypto-shim library directly:
<!-- Any Promise polyfill will do -->
<script src="https://unpkg.com/bluebird"></script>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/webcrypto-shim"></script>
Compatibility
- IE11+
- Safari 8+
- Edge 12+
- Chrome 43+
- Opera 24+
- Firefox 34+
- Node 4+
- React Native
Although the library runs on IE11+, the level of functionality varies between implementations. They're organized using the JWA alg abbreviations:
