🐝 nemo_crypto_hive

A WrapStore storage adapter for the Nemo Crypto ecosystem, backed by Hive.

🛡️ About Nemo Crypto

Nemo Crypto is a suite of pure Dart primitives for local-first, end-to-end encrypted (E2EE) applications. It manages complex key hierarchies (Argon2id, XChaCha20-Poly1305) so you don't have to.

This package (nemo_crypto_hive) is the official adapter that connects Nemo Crypto's Keyring to a physical database (Hive) to persist your wrapped Master Keys safely on disk.

Note: Since Nemo Crypto ensures all stored keys are authenticated ciphertext, the underlying Hive box does not require its own encryption.

🚀 Installation

dependencies:
  nemo_crypto: ^0.1.0
  nemo_crypto_hive: ^0.1.0
  hive_ce: ^2.0.0

🛠️ Usage

Provide an opened Hive box to the HiveWrapStore. The store uses a default nemo_ prefix for its keys, allowing you to safely share the same Hive box with other application metadata.

import 'package:hive_ce/hive.dart';
import 'package:nemo_crypto/nemo_crypto.dart';
import 'package:nemo_crypto_hive/nemo_crypto_hive.dart';

void main() async {
  // 1. Initialize Nemo Crypto core
  await Nemo.initialize();

  // 2. Initialize Hive and open a metadata box
  Hive.init('./hive_data'); // Use Hive.initFlutter() in a Flutter app
  final box = await Hive.openBox<dynamic>('app_metadata');

  // 3. Plug the Hive adapter into the Keyring
  final store = HiveWrapStore(box);
  final keyring = Keyring(store);

  // 4. Proceed with your crypto logic
  await keyring.init();
}

Isolating Multiple Keyrings

If you are building a multi-account app and need to store multiple separate keyrings in the exact same Hive box, simply provide a custom prefix:

final user1Store = HiveWrapStore(box, prefix: 'user_1_');
final user2Store = HiveWrapStore(box, prefix: 'user_2_');
