# CipherCLI
CipherCLI is a command-line tool for encrypting and decrypting text messages using AES-256-CBC encryption. It allows users to securely encode and decode messages via a simple command-line interface.
## Features
- **Encryption**: Convert plain text into encrypted data.
- **Decryption**: Convert encrypted data back into plain text.
- **AES-256-CBC**: Uses AES-256-CBC encryption for strong security.
## Installation
Clone the repository and install the necessary dependencies:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/nomadsdev/cipher-cli.git
cd cipher-cli
npm install
```
## Usage
To use CipherCLI, run the `cli.js` script:
```bash
node cli.js
```
### Commands
1. **Encrypt a Message**:
Choose option `1` to encrypt a message. Enter the plain text you want to encrypt, and the program will output the encrypted data.
2. **Decrypt a Message**:
Choose option `2` to decrypt a message. Enter the IV (Initialization Vector) and the encrypted data (both in hex format) to receive the decrypted text.
## Example
**Encrypting a Message:**
```bash
node cli.js
1: Encrypt a message
2: Decrypt a message
Please select an option: 1
Please enter the message to encrypt: Hello, World!
Encrypted data: { iv: '...', content: '...' }
```
**Decrypting a Message:**
```bash
node cli.js
1: Encrypt a message
2: Decrypt a message
Please select an option: 2
Please enter the IV used for encryption (hex): ...
Please enter the encrypted data (hex): ...
Decrypted data: Hello, World!
```
## Configuration
The encryption key is generated dynamically each time the program is run. If you need a persistent key, modify the `config.js` file to set a fixed key.
