1.0.5 release

Supports encrypted string more than 117. see openssl_private_encrypt can encrypt a maximum of 117 chars at one time

Easy PKI public/private RSA key encryption using the OpenSSL extension.

What's up with the name?

Pikirasa is just "PKI RSA" with a few exta vowels thrown in. Also, I created this project late on a Friday night, so I just couldn't bring myself to name it anything serious.

What is this for?

Pikirasa is very lightweight wrapper around PHP's OpenSSL extension for encrypting and decrypting data with a known public/private key pair. It requires that you have the OpenSSL extension installed, and that your certificates have already been generated.

Pikirasa is not a general purpose or all-encompassing encryption library. If you need more encryption options, maximum system compatability, or if you need to generate RSA keys programatically, take a look at phpseclib.

Example Usage

All your need is the full path to your public and/or private key files:

$rsa = new Pikirasa\RSA('path/to/public.pem', 'path/to/private.pem');

$data = 'abc123';
$encrypted = $rsa->encrypt($data);
$decrypted = $rsa->decrypt($encrypted);
var_dump($decrypted); // 'abc123'

Under the hood, Pikirasa will make these paths file streams, and you may use any file stream directly instead :

$rsa = new Pikirasa\RSA('file:///absolute/path/to/public.pem', 'file://relative/path/to/private.pem');

$data = 'abc123';
$encrypted = $rsa->encrypt($data);
$decrypted = $rsa->decrypt($encrypted);
var_dump($decrypted); // 'abc123'

You can also use the string contents of your public and private keys :

$publicKey = '

';

$rsa = new Pikirasa\RSA($publicKey, $privateKey);

$data = 'abc123';
$encrypted = $rsa->encrypt($data);
$decrypted = $rsa->decrypt($encrypted);
var_dump($decrypted); // 'abc123'

Using Certificates with a Passphrase

The Pikirasa\RSA class accepts an optional 3rd parameter if your private key is protected with a password.

$rsa = new Pikirasa\RSA($publicKey, $privateKey, 'certificate_password');

$data = 'abc123';
$encrypted = $rsa->encrypt($data);
$decrypted = $rsa->decrypt($encrypted);
var_dump($decrypted); // 'abc123'

Working with base64-encoded strings

A common pattern if you want to deal with plain strings rather than binary data is to encode encryped data with base64. If you need to do that, both encrypt and decrypt have a base64 counterpart you can use :

$rsa = new Pikirasa\RSA($publicKey, $privateKey);

$data = 'abc123';
$encrypted = $rsa->base64Encrypt($data);
$decrypted = $rsa->base64Decrypt($encrypted);
var_dump($decrypted); // 'abc123'

encrypt a maximum of 117 chars at one time

$rsa = new Pikirasa\RSA($publicKey, $privateKey);

$data = 'abc123';
$encrypted = $rsa->base64EncryptForLongChars($data);
$decrypted = $rsa->base64DecryptForLongChars($encrypted); // this is testing...
var_dump($decrypted); // 'abc123'
