Crypto primitives
complete
Will Henderson
I would love to see standard encryption primitives such as those offered by either the Web Crypto API (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Crypto/subtle)
or Node.js (https://nodejs.org/api/crypto.html).
In particular, I am in need of CSPRNG generators as well as symmetric and asymmetric cipher functions.
Regards,
Will

The Node Crypto Library and similar NPM packages should now be supported in Functions. https://nodejs.org/api/crypto.html

Thanks for the feedback Will –
We support a few crypto primitives within our utils.crypto package, but will consider extending based on interest here. Would be great to hear a bit more about what you would like to accomplish with these.

Hi @drew-dip,
We are looking for the right platform to implement our zero knowledge protocol which requires cryptographic primitives on both client and server.
The protocol requires very little work outside of basic crypto primitives and each packet of data (being saved/read from the db) would be small so stitch looked ideal until I saw that the crypto primitives are limited.
Right now we are also considering Google Cloud Functions and AWS Lambda to achieve the same results. Google has the nodejs crypto primitives and we are about to investigate AWS Lambda.
Thanks for any help,
Will
