# G-Crypt
Simple encryption library in Go using AES-256.
[](https://codecov.io/github/g-crypt/g-crypt)
## Installation
To install the package, run the following command:
```bash
go get github.com/g-crypt/g-crypt
```
Or
```bash
go install github.com/g-crypt/g-crypt
```
### Usage
Here is an example of how to use the encryption and decryption functions provided by the g-crypt package:
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
gcrypt "github.com/g-crypt/g-crypt"
)
func main() {
text := "Hello World"
password := "secret-password"
// Encrypt the text
encrypted, err := gcrypt.EncryptAES256(text, password)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Error encrypting:", err)
return
}
fmt.Println("Encrypted text:", encrypted)
// Decrypt the text
decrypted, err := gcrypt.DecryptAES256(encrypted, password)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Error decrypting:", err)
return
}
fmt.Println("Decrypted text:", string(decrypted))
}
```
### Functions
#### EncryptAES256
```go
func EncryptAES256(text, password string) (string, error)
```
Encrypts a text using AES-256.
- `text`: The text to be encrypted.
- `password`: The password used to generate the encryption key.
Returns the encrypted text in base64 or an error if it occurs.
#### DecryptAES256
```go
func DecryptAES256(encryptedText, password string) ([]byte, error)
```
Decrypts a text encrypted using AES-256.
- `encryptedText`: The encrypted text in base64.
- `password`: The password used to generate the encryption key.
Returns the decrypted text as a byte slice or an error if it occurs.
