importRawKey static method

Future<AesGcmSecretKey> importRawKey(
  1. List<int> keyData
)

Import an AesGcmSecretKey from raw keyData.

KeyData must be either:

  • 16 bytes (128 bit) for AES-128, or,
  • 32 bytes (256 bit) for AES-256.

Support for AES-192 (24 byte keys) is intentionally omitted, in line with the decision not support AES-192 in Chrome.

Example

import 'dart:convert' show utf8;
import 'dart:typed_data' show Uint8List;
import 'package:webcrypto/webcrypto.dart';

final rawKey = Uint8List(16);
fillRandomBytes(rawKey);

// Import key from raw bytes
final k = await AesGcmSecretKey.importRawKey(rawKey);

// Use a unique IV for each message.
final iv = Uint8List(16);
fillRandomBytes(iv);

// Encrypt a message
final c = await k.encryptBytes(utf8.encode('hello world'), iv);

// Decrypt message (requires the same iv)
print(utf8.decode(await k.decryptBytes(c, iv))); // hello world

Implementation

static Future<AesGcmSecretKey> importRawKey(List<int> keyData) async {
  final impl = await webCryptImpl.aesGcmSecretKey.importRawKey(keyData);
  return AesGcmSecretKey._(impl);
}
