README

A class that provides simple interface for decryptable encryption.

Requirements

• PHP: ^7.1 || ^8.0

Installing

composer require mpyw/easycrypt

Usage

Basic

The default cipher method is aes256 (aes-256-cbc).

<?php

use Mpyw\EasyCrypt\Cryptor;

$cryptor = new Cryptor;

$secretData = '[Secret Data]';
$password = '[Password]';

$encrypted = $cryptor->encrypt($secretData, $password);
$decrypted = $cryptor->decrypt($encrypted, $password); // String on success, false on failure.

var_dump($secretData === $decrypted); // bool(true)

Throw DecryptionFailedException when decryption failed

It throws DecryptionFailedException instead of returning false.

$decrypted = $cryptor->mustDecrypt($encrypted, $password);

Use fixed password

You can use FixedPasswordCryptor instead of raw Cryptor. This is useful when we use a fixed password from an application config.

<?php

use Mpyw\EasyCrypt\FixedPasswordCryptor;

$cryptor = new FixedPasswordCryptor('[Password]');

$secretData = '[Secret Data]';

$encrypted = $cryptor->encrypt($secretData);
$decrypted = $cryptor->decrypt($encrypted); // String on success, false on failure.

var_dump($secretData === $decrypted); // bool(true)

Use AEAD (Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data) suites

If you need to use AEAD suites that adopt CTR mode, it is recommended to provide truly unique counter value.

use Mpyw\EasyCrypt\IvGenerator\IvGeneratorInterface;

class Counter implements IvGeneratorInterface
{
    protected \PDO $pdo;

    public function __construct(\PDO $pdo)
    {
        $this->pdo = $pdo;
    }

    public function generate(int $length): string
    {
        $this->pdo->exec('INSERT INTO counters()');
        return $this->pdo->lastInsertId();
    }
}

<?php

use Mpyw\EasyCrypt\Cryptor;

$cryptor = new Cryptor('aes-256-gcm', new Counter(new \PDO(...)));
