A Node.js wrapper for gpg

node-gpg

node-gpg is a wrapper for Node.js so you can use GnuPGP in your applications. I was working on an Mailspring plugin for GPG and needed a connection to the GPG keyring. Since most of the wrappers didn't work for me, I simply wrote one myself.

Please note, that this node module is still work in progress! I tested it with my own keyring on macOS and for me it's working so far. But I can't guarantee that it's working for everyone else.

Usage

To install this package is easy: Simply use your favorite package manager and type the following command:

npm install node-gpg

There are some examples for encrypting, decrypting, signing and verifying messages. Please use them to learn how to use the API of this module. Promises have been made, so async/ await should work just fine. 😏

Credits

This package is inspired by, but not based on drudge/node-gpg, but without him I wouldn't have written this code so fast.
