It was meant to expose the GPG libgcrypt to Ruby user.
Unfortunately due to time constraint the struct gcry_cipher_handle of cipher_internal.h is too daunting.
The many struct/union inside it make it too time comsuning to duplicate into Ruby world.
One day maybe will continue finish this project.
Was compile and tested on LinuxMint 20.2 x86_64 (Kernel 5.4.0-80-generic), Ruby 3.0.2
Not ready for any operations except random number generator.
With compare to default OpenSSL engine:
- Smaller binary code base
- Support Twofish block cipher
- Support Salsa20 stream cipher
- Support PC/SC
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'gcrypt'And then execute:
$ bundle install
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install gcrypt
Anyone welcome to fork!
