## ratcheted

`ratcheted` implements and benchmarks various novel forward-secure key agreement and

messaging protocols and aims to provide insight into the performance aspects of the different

protocols. The code base is structure as a library as to enable integration in other projects.

For the `ratcheted` library reference, see [the documentation](https://godoc.org/github.com/qantik/ratcheted).  

## Requirements

 - go (with set $GOPATH)

 - [dep](https://github.com/golang/dep)

 - [pbc](https://github.com/Nik-U/pbc) (Standford Pairing-Based Cryptography Library)

## Installation

```

$ go get -u github.com/qantik/ratcheted

$ cd ${GOPATH}/src/github.com/qantik/ratcheted

# On Linux make sure that the pbc libary path is set.

# export LIBRARY_PATH=$LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib

# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib 

$ dep ensure

$ go test -v ./...

## Benchmarks

The `bench` directory within each package contains the runtime, message and

state size benchmarks which can be run by simply executing the `main.go` file.

## Project Structure

- `./acd` Double Ratchet protocol by [Alwen, Coretti & Dodis](https://eprint.iacr.org/2018/1037).

- `./dv` BARK protocol by [Durak & Vaudenay](https://eprint.iacr.org/2018/889).
