> Noise libp2p handshake for js-libp2p
This repository contains TypeScript implementation of noise protocol, an encryption protocol used in libp2p.
##### Warning: Even though this package works in browser, it will bundle around 1.5Mb of code
## Usage
Install with `yarn add libp2p-noise` or `npm i libp2p-noise`.
Example of using default noise configuration and passing it to the libp2p config:
```
import {NOISE, Noise} from "libp2p-noise"
//custom noise configuration, pass it instead of NOISE instance
const noise = new Noise(privateKey, Buffer.alloc(x));
const libp2p = new Libp2p({
modules: {
connEncryption: [NOISE],
},
});
```
Where parameters for Noise constructor are:
- *static Noise key* - (optional) existing private Noise static key
- *early data* - (optional) an early data payload to be sent in handshake messages
## API
This module exposes a crypto interface, as defined in the repository [js-interfaces](https://github.com/libp2p/js-interfaces).
