# noise-c.wasm [![Travis CI](https://img.shields.io/travis/nazar-pc/noise-c.wasm/master.svg?label=Travis%20CI)](https://travis-ci.org/nazar-pc/noise-c.wasm)
[rweather/noise-c](https://github.com/rweather/noise-c) compiled to WebAssembly using Emscripten and optimized for small size.

[Noise protocol](https://noiseprotocol.org/) implementation that works both in Node.js and in modern browsers.

## Supported Patterns and Algorithms
The same as in noise-c: https://rweather.github.io/noise-c/index.html#algorithms

## About this project
This project basically does 2 things:
* compiles upstream noise-c C library into WebAssembly
* wraps plain functions into OOP interface close to what is specified in the spec (including functions names)

## How to install
```
npm install noise-c.wasm
```

## How to use
Node.js:
```js
var createNoise = require('noise-c.wasm');

createNoise(function (noise) {
    // Do stuff
});
```
Browser:
```js
requirejs(['noise-c.wasm'], function (createNoise) {
    createNoise(function (noise) {
        // Do stuff
    });
});
```

## API

### createNoise(options, callback)
Creates a new instance of Noise library
* `options` - [Options object](https://kripken.github.io/emscripten-site/docs/api_reference/module.html#affecting-execution) that will be passed to underlying Emscripten module (optional)
* `callback` - Callback function that receives library instance as the first argument, it is called when WebAssembly is loaded and library is ready for use

### noise.constants
A bunch of constants that are needed for certain calls or for identifying errors.
In most cases only `NOISE_ROLE_INITIATOR` and `NOISE_ROLE_RESPONDER` will be used directly, but others are used in OOP wrapper and/or in tests.

Check `src/constants.ls` for complete list of available constants.

### noise.CreateKeyPair(curve_id): Uint8Array[]
Convenient method for generating new Ed25519 or X448 keypair, takes `noise.constants.NOISE_DH_CURVE448` or `noise.constants.NOISE_DH_CURVE448` as an argument.
Returns `[private, public]` array of private and public part of keypair.

### noise.CipherState(cipher)
CipherState object [as in specification](http://noiseprotocol.org/noise.html#the-cipherstate-object), has following methods:
* `InitializeKey(key)`
* `HasKey()`
* `SetNonce(nonce)`
* `EncryptWithAd(ad, plaintext)`
* `DecryptWithAd(ad, ciphertext)`
* `Rekey()`
* `free()`

Take a look at `src/index.ls` for JsDoc sections with arguments and return types as well as methods description, look at `tests/CipherState.ls` for usage examples.

### noise.SymmetricState(protocol_name)
SymmetricState object [as in specification](http://noiseprotocol.org/noise.html#the-symmetricstate-object), has following methods:
* `MixKey(input_key_material)`
* `MixHash(data)`
* `MixKeyAndHash(input_key_material)`
* `EncryptAndHash(plaintext)`
* `DecryptAndHash(ciphertext)`
* `Split()`
* `free()`

Take a look at `src/index.ls` for JsDoc sections with arguments and return types as well as methods description, look at `tests/SymmetricState.ls` for usage examples.

### noise.HandshakeState(protocol_name, role)
HandshakeState object [as in specification](http://noiseprotocol.org/noise.html#the-handshakestate-object), has following methods:
* `Initialize(prologue = null, s = null, rs = null, psk = null)`
* `GetAction()`
* `FallbackTo(pattern_id = noise.constants.NOISE_PATTERN_XX_FALLBACK)`
* `WriteMessage(payload = null)`
* `ReadMessage(message, payload_needed = false, fallback_supported = false)`
* `GetHandshakeHash()`
* `GetRemotePublicKey()`
* `Split()`
* `free()`

Take a look at `src/index.ls` for JsDoc sections with arguments and return types as well as methods description, look at `tests/HandshakeState.ls` for usage examples.
