anacl-js

A TweetNaCl.js fork for asynchronous PRNGs.

The following methods which rely on the asynchronous PRNG are changed to return Promise:

• nacl.randomBytes
• nacl.box.keyPair
• nacl.sign.keyPair

The followings are the default PRNGs used, depending on the platform anacl runs on:

• window.crypto.getRandomValues (WebCrypto standard)
• window.msCrypto.getRandomValues (Internet Explorer 11)
• crypto.randomBytes (Node.js)
• wx.getRandomValues (WeChat)

If the above are not available on the platform you are targeting, and you have a cryptographically-strong source of entropy, you can plug it in like this:

nacl.setPRNG(function(x, n) {
  // ... copy n random bytes into x, synchronously or asynchronously (return a promise) ...
});

Other than the above, check TweetNaCl.js for usage in general.
