cipheriv encrypt v10.4.28 encrypting data
- algorithm required
valueThe algorithm to use
- key required
valueThe key used to encrypt (mostly scrypt output)
- data required
valueThe data to be encrypted
- success
condition - encrypted
valuehex output
- auth tag
value - error
valueIf an error occured, this pin is filled
Encrypts data with AES-CBC (PKCS7 padded) or AES-GCM using a FIXED IV (all-zero for CBC, legacy ASCII key-size string for GCM), so output is DETERMINISTIC: the same key and data always yield the same hex ciphertext. key must be hex. auth_tag is hex for GCM and nil for CBC. An unsupported algorithm or bad key sets success false with an error code and writes no output.
A typical wiring for cipheriv encrypt: value feeds the algorithm pin; value feeds the key pin; value feeds the data pin; the success out pin feeds branch.
