cryptolib

a small library to easily encrypt/decrypt with RSA public/private key pair.

how to:

Generate the key pair:

openssl genrsa -out private.pem 2048
openssl rsa -in private.pem -out public.pem -pubout -outform PEM

Install cryptolib

git clone https://github.com/vspaz/rsa-encrypt-decrypt-python.git
cd rsa-encrypt-decrypt-python

python3 setup.py install

from cryptolib import serializers
