Overview

Package saltpack is an implementation of the saltpack message format. Saltpack is a light wrapper around Dan Berstein's famous NaCl library. It adds support for longer messages, streaming input and output of data, multiple recipients for encrypted messages, and a reasonable armoring format. We intend Saltpack as a replacement for the PGP messaging format, as it can be used in many of the same circumstances. However, it is designed to be: (1) simpler; (2) easier to implement; (3) judicious (perhaps judgmental) in its crypto usage; (4) fully modern (no CFB mode here); (5) high performance; (6) less bug- prone; (7) generally unwilling to output unauthenticated data; and (8) easier to compose with other software in any manner of languages or platforms.

Key Management

Saltpack makes no attempt to manage keys. We assume the wrapping application has a story for key management.

Modes of Operation

Saltpack supports three modes of operation: encrypted messages, attached signatures, and detached signatures. Encrypted messages use NaCl's authenticated public-key encryption; we add repudiable authentication. An attached signature contains a message and a signature that authenticates it. A detached signature contains just the signature, and assumes an independent delievery mechanism for the file (this might come up when distributing an ISO and separate signature of the file).

Encoding

Saltpack has two encoding modes: binary and armored. In armored mode, saltpack outputs in Base62-encoding, suitable for publication into any manner of Web settings without fear of markup-caused mangling.

API

This saltpack library implementation supports two API patterns: streaming and all-at-once. The former is useful for large files that can't fit into memory; the latter is more convenient. Both produce the same output.

NewVerifyStream creates a stream that consumes data from reader r. It returns the signer's public key and a reader that only contains verified data. If the signer's key is not in keyring, it will return an error.

func Verify 

func Verify(signedMsg []byte, keyring SigKeyring) (skey SigningPublicKey, verifiedMsg []byte, err error)

Verify checks the signature in signedMsg. It returns the signer's public key and a verified message.

func VerifyDetached 

func VerifyDetached(message, signature []byte, keyring SigKeyring) (skey SigningPublicKey, err error)

VerifyDetached verifies that signature is a valid signature for message, and that the public key for the signer is in keyring. It returns the signer's public key.

func VerifyDetachedReader 

func VerifyDetachedReader(message io.Reader, signature []byte, keyring SigKeyring) (skey SigningPublicKey, err error)

VerifyDetachedReader verifies that signature is a valid signature for entire message read from message Reader, and that the public key for the signer is in keyring. It returns the signer's public key.

type SigningSecretKey 

type SigningSecretKey interface {
	// Sign signs message with this secret key.
	Sign(message []byte) ([]byte, error)

	// GetPublicKey gets the public key associated with this secret key.
	GetPublicKey() SigningPublicKey
}

SigningSecretKey is a secret NaCl key that can sign messages.

type SymmetricKey 

type SymmetricKey [32]byte

SymmetricKey is a template for a symmetric key, a 32-byte static buffer. Used for NaCl SecretBox.

type Version 

type Version struct {
	Major int `codec:"major"`
	Minor int `codec:"minor"`
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Version is a major.minor pair that shows the version of the whole file
