Encrypt a JWE with a Password (PBES2)

See more JSON Web Encryption (JWE) Examples

Demonstrates Jwe.SetPassword, which sets the PBES2 password for a recipient. The example uses PBES2-HS256+A128KW key management with AES-128-GCM content encryption.

var success = false;

var jwe = new CkJwe();

//  Protected header: PBES2 password-based key management with AES-128-GCM content encryption.
var header = new CkJsonObject();
header.UpdateString("alg","PBES2-HS256+A128KW");
header.UpdateString("enc","A128GCM");
success = jwe.SetProtectedHeader(header);
if (success == false) {
    console.log(jwe.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

//  Set the PBES2 password for recipient 0.  The password should come from a secure source rather than
//  being hard-coded.
var password = "myPassword";
success = jwe.SetPassword(0,password);
if (success == false) {
    console.log(jwe.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

var jweCompact = jwe.Encrypt("This is the secret content.","utf-8");
if (jwe.LastMethodSuccess == false) {
    console.log(jwe.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

console.log(jweCompact);
