Installation/usage? about webcrypto-liner

[microshine]

The problem is that package.json uses main: build/index.js, but npm module doesn't have build

Can you try to update webcrypto-liner/package.json and set main: dist/webcrypto-liner.shim.js?
There can be problem with https://github.com/PeculiarVentures/webcrypto-liner/blob/master/src/init.ts#L5, you can comment it.

webcrypto-liner is a polyfill. It wraps existing global crypto object Window.

pv-webcrypto-tests

<script src="src/promise.js"></script> <!-- Adds Promise to IE -->
<script src="src/webcrypto-liner.min.js"></script>
<script src="src/asmcrypto.js"></script> <!-- RSA/AES implementation -->
<script src="src/elliptic.js"></script> <!-- EC implementation -->

You can use crypto without import/require

window.crypto.subtle.generateKey(alg, true, keyUsage);
// or
crypto.subtle.generateKey(alg, true, keyUsage);

Is there a path to use import/require if I want to? If not, can you help me to understand what the use case is for npm installing if the src files need copy/moving into some dir to reference directly from HTML?

Thanks for bearing with me on this :)

webcrypto-liner is TS project. NPM version contains compiled JS files only. You don't need to install TypeScript and other dependencies for compiled files getting

For example, I'm also using https://github.com/samthor/fast-text-encoding to polypill TextEncoder on ie11/Edge.

Usage of this is simple, I simply do a yarn add -D fast-text-encoder and then import 'fast-text-encoding'; in my JS and voila - the polyfill is enabled.

I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to have the same experience here...

[lougreenwood]

@microshine so you're saying all I need to do is yarn add webcrypto-liner and my code will be magically polyfilled? no imports necessary etc?

[microshine]

Do you use any compiler for JS compilation?
If yes. Do you have fast-text-encoding code in your bundled file after import 'fast-text-encoding' using?

[lougreenwood]

Yes, my project is built with EmberJS, which builds the app using Broccoli. commonjs modules are made available in my project using ember-auto-import https://github.com/ef4/ember-auto-import.

Yep, it's bundled and the fast-text-encoding polyfill is working in production...

[lougreenwood]

@microshine that seems to have worked - at least my app is no longer throwing an exception when trying to import 'webcrypto-liner';

Let me check an environment where I was previously getting issues because crypto wasn't available...

[mc-suchecki]

@lougreenwood I also expected to import the library in TypeScript like so:
import 'webcrypto-liner';

Right now this won't work with the following error:
Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'crypto' in '(...)\node_modules\webcrypto-liner\build'

@microshine would it be possible for you to change main in package.json accordingly?

@microshine @YuryStrozhevsky The issue pointed out by @mc-suchecki was a problem in my pull request to PKI.js. Please change the main field.
