# node-encryption

This package will simplify the process of encrypting and decrypting data for your application providing robust AES-256-GCM encryption and decryption utilities for protecting sensitive data.

```

### How to use this package

```javascript
import { encrypt, decrypt } from 'node-encryption';

const text = 'This will be encrypted';
const encryptionKey = 'mysecretkey1337';

const encrypted = encrypt(text, encryptionKey);

const decrypted = decrypt(encrypted, encryptionKey);

console.log(decrypted.toString());
// Output: This will be encrypted

// By using a buffer
const encryptBuffer = encrypt(Buffer.from(text), encryptionKey);

const decryptBuffer = decrypt(encryptBuffer, encryptionKey);

console.log(decryptBuffer.toString());
// Output: This will be encrypted
```

### How to encrypt & decrypt a file
