Java binding to the Networking and Cryptography (NaCl) library with the awesomeness of libsodium
A Java binding to Networking and Cryptography library by Daniel J. Bernstein. All the hard work of making a portable NaCl API version was done by Frank Denis on libsodium and kalium was totally inspired by Tony Arcieri's work with RbNaCl.
kalium is implemented using jnr-ffi to bind the shared libraries from libsodium. For a more detailed explanation, please refer to RbNaCl's documentation.
OS X users can get libsodium via homebrew with:
brew install libsodium
Windows users will need to provide the pre-build binaries from libsodium
.
libsodium
from https://download.libsodium.org/libsodium/releases/
libsodium
you wish to use
v141 // these were compiled against the MSVC v141 (i.e. Visual Studio 2017)
dll
library files into one of the following locations:
lib
at the root of the working directory directory of your project.PATH
environment variable.For example, on Windows 10 machine with a x64 architecture:
{archive root}
└───x64
...
└───Release
...
└───v141
...
└───dynamic <- copy the library files from this locaiton.
Add as a Maven dependency to your project.
No.
Look at the libsodium docs, they are self explanatory. Or, contribute with docs.
I'm sorry but I'm completely clueless about Windows environment, but if you have any suggestions or PR changes. They will be more than welcome.
Kalium is the effort of a really small group of people, feedback, bug reports and patches are always welcome.
