AES Encrypt String (utf-8 byte representation) and return Base64

See more Encryption Examples

Demonstrates how to AES encrypt the utf-8 byte representation of a string and return in base64 format. Ruby

require 'chilkat'

# This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

crypt = Chilkat::CkCrypt2.new()

crypt.put_CryptAlgorithm("aes")
crypt.put_CipherMode("cbc")
crypt.put_KeyLength(256)
crypt.put_Charset("utf-8")
crypt.put_EncodingMode("base64")

ivHex = "000102030405060708090A0B0C0D0E0F"
crypt.SetEncodedIV(ivHex,"hex")
keyHex = "000102030405060708090A0B0C0D0E0F101112131415161718191A1B1C1D1E1F"
crypt.SetEncodedKey(keyHex,"hex")

encryptedStr = crypt.encryptStringENC("This is the original string")
print encryptedStr + "\n";

# Let's say we want to URL encode the base64 string..
crypt.put_CryptAlgorithm("none")
crypt.put_EncodingMode("url")
urlEncoded = crypt.encryptStringENC(encryptedStr)
print urlEncoded + "\n";

# Sample output:

#  q3fmgEqjqa9o//ZS6aPuh4Wtbrrxx/WOIQSKeVnesZg=
#  q3fmgEqjqa9o%2F%2FZS6aPuh4Wtbrrxx%2FWOIQSKeVnesZg%3D

# -------------------------------------------------------------------
# Now let's do the reverse...
# 

# We start with a string that is the binary encrypted data, base64 encoded, and then URL encoded.
encBase64Url = "q3fmgEqjqa9o%2F%2FZS6aPuh4Wtbrrxx%2FWOIQSKeVnesZg%3D"

# We'll use the same crypt object.  If using a new instance of the crypt object,
# make sure *all* settings are identical:  the algorithm, cipher mode, key length, charset, encoding mode, IV, and secret key.

# Decode from URL...
crypt.put_CryptAlgorithm("none")
crypt.put_EncodingMode("url")
encBase64 = crypt.decryptStringENC(urlEncoded)
print encBase64 + "\n";

# Now decrypt...
crypt.put_CryptAlgorithm("aes")
crypt.put_EncodingMode("base64")
originalStr = crypt.decryptStringENC(encBase64)
print originalStr + "\n";
