Web Crypto

Last updated: 2024-01-30 14:51:12
    The Web Crypto API is designed based on the standard Web API Web Crypto API. The Web Crypto API provides a set of functions for common cryptographic operations. Performing cryptographic operations by using the Web Crypto API is significantly faster than performing them purely in JavaScript.
    Note:
    The Crypto object cannot be constructed directly. It is globally injected during the runtime of edge functions. Directly use the global crypto instance.

    Overview

    // Perform encoding.
    const encodeContent = new TextEncoder().encode('hello world');
    // Use crypto to perform SHA-256 hashing. The resulting hash is a promise that fulfills with an ArrayBuffer.
    const sha256Content = await crypto.subtle.digest(
    { name: 'SHA-256' },
    encodeContent
    );
    const result = new Uint8Array(sha256Content);

    Attributes

    // crypto.subtle
    readonly subtle: SubtleCrypto;
    The Web Crypto API supports common cryptographic operations, such as hashing, signature signing and verification, and encryption and decryption. For more information, see SubtleCrypto.

    Methods

    getRandomValues

    crypto.getRandomValues(buffer: TypedArray): TypedArray;
    The getRandomValues() method generates a random value, fills the buffer with the random value, and returns the buffer.
