FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Usage
WARNING Though this library is tested for compliance to standards, it is subject to at least one documented vulnerability in public-key derivation, which can potentially allow attackers to grab your private keys. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. You've been warned.
WARNING All following documentation is based off the master branch, not the tagged versions.
Key generation
The lazy way
You're in luck, there's a command line tool ! The examples assume that phpecc (found in the bin/ folder) is on your path.
Generate a private/public keypair:
Alternately, you can pipe the output to file:
The generated keys should be compatible with OpenSSL. However, if you find cases where OpenSSL cannot parse a key generated using phpecc, please submit an issue with the parameters used to generate your key.
Note: you don't actually need the public key part from the output, it's also encoded in the private key segment.

Asymmetric encryption
The dead stupid example:
A lesser dead stupid example
A more realistic example, assumes you are Alice, and that your private key is stored (unencrypted) in PEM format on file. You will of course also need Bob's public key in PEM format on file. This example clearly shows that this library can be improved...
You want to encrypt a message for Bob --and only Bob-- to read.
Alice encodes the data
Now you can email/snail mail/whatever the encrypted message to Bob, and he will be able to decrypt your secret data (assuming he already has your public key, and his private key...)
Bob decodes the encrypted data
