# 🔏 Invisible Ink

Encrypt text files in your open source projects so that they can be committed to
your repository without exposing sensitive information.

## 📸 Demo

![A demo showing how to use the Gem](.docs/demo.gif)

## ✅ Installation

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

$ bundle add invisible_ink

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

$ gem install invisible_ink

## ℹī¸ Usage

Once installed in your project's `Gemfile`, run `bundle exec invisible_ink
--setup` to create an encryption key saved to `invisible_ink.key`. This will
also update your `.gitignore` file to ensure the key is not saved to version
control.

Alternatively, you can set `ENV["INVISIBLE_INK_KEY"]` to the value of a 32
character hash.

### ⌨ī¸ Commands

```text
Usage: invisible_ink COMMAND [options]
-w, --write FILE Encrypt a file using an encryption key and open it in the specified $EDITOR
-r, --read FILE Decrypt and display the content of an encrypted file
-s, --setup Generate an encryption key, save it to a file, and add it to .gitignore
-h, --help Display help message
-v, --version Display Gem version
```

## 🔨 Development

After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run
`rake spec` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive
prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To
release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run
`bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push
git commits and the created tag, and push the `.gem` file to
[rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
