= Mcrypt - libmcrypt bindings for Ruby Mcrypt provides Ruby-language bindings for libmcrypt(3), a symmetric cryptography library. {Libmcrypt}[http://mcrypt.sourceforge.net/] supports lots of different ciphers and encryption modes. == You will need * A working Ruby installation (>= 1.8.6 or 1.9) * A working libmcrypt installation (2.5.x or 2.6.x, tested with 2.5.8) * A sane build environment == Installation Install the gem: gem install ruby-mcrypt --test -- --with-mcrypt-dir=/path/to/mcrypt/prefix If you're installing on Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install mcrypt libmcrypt-dev gem install ruby-mcrypt If you want to run the longer test suite, do this instead: MCRYPT_TEST_BRUTE=1 \ gem install ruby-mcrypt --test -- --with-mcrypt-dir=/path/to/mcrypt/prefix Put this in your code: require 'rubygems' require 'mcrypt' Or in Rails' environment.rb: gem "ruby-mcrypt", :lib => "mcrypt" == Usage crypto = Mcrypt.new(:twofish, :cbc, MY_KEY, MY_IV, :pkcs) # encryption and decryption in one step ciphertext = crypto.encrypt(plaintext) plaintext = crypto.decrypt(ciphertext) # encrypt in smaller steps while chunk = $stdin.read(4096) $stdout << crypto.encrypt_more(chunk) end $stdout << crypto.encrypt_finish # or decrypt: while chunk = $stdin.read(4096) $stdout << crypto.decrypt_more(chunk) end $stdout << crypto.decrypt_finish == Known Issues * Test coverage is lacking. If you find any bugs, please let the author know. == Wish List * IO-like behavior, e.g. crypto.open($stdin) { |stream| ... } == Author * Philip Garrett == Copyright and License Copyright (c) 2009-2013 Philip Garrett.
