elm-secret-sharing

An implementation of Shamir's Secret Sharing: your secret is encrypted into N keys, of which only K are needed to reconstruct the original secret.

Port of simbo1905/shamir.

Example usage:

secret : String
secret =
    "Hello there!"

allKeys : Result Secret.EncryptError (List Key)
allKeys =
    Secret.encryptString
        -- Don't use a static seed in production!
        { seed = Random.initialSeed 0
        , parts = 5
        , minPartsNeeded = 3
        }
        secret

onlySomeKeys : List Key
onlySomeKeys =
    allKeys
        |> Result.withDefault []
        |> List.drop 2

decryptedSecret : Result Secret.DecryptError String
decryptedSecret =
    Secret.decryptString onlySomeKeys

-- decryptedSecret == Ok secret

Advanced usage:

It's possible to have a tiered sharing: let's say you want to have admin keys and user keys; allowing either two admin keys or one admin key and three user keys to recover the secret.
