# `simple-handshake`

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/emilbayes/simple-handshake.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/emilbayes/simple-handshake)

> Simple Noise handshake state machine

## Usage

```js
var simpleHandshake = require('simple-handshake')

// Generate static keys. Ideally these are saved as the represent either party's
// identity
var clientKeys = simpleHandshake.keygen()
var serverKeys = simpleHandshake.keygen()

// Make a client/server pair. These are also known as initiator/responder
var client = simpleHandshake(true, {
  pattern: 'XX',
  staticKeyPair: clientKeys
})

var server = simpleHandshake(false, {
  pattern: 'XX',
  staticKeyPair: serverKeys
})

// Use a simple Round trip function to do the back and forth.
// In practise this would go over a network
rtt(client, server, function (err) {
  if (err) throw err

// Now both parties have arrived at the same shared secrets
  // client.tx === server.rx and server.tx === client.rx
  console.log(client.split, server.split)
})

function rtt (from, to, cb) {
  // waiting === true means waiting to receive data, hence it should be false
  // if we're ready to send data!
  if (from.waiting !== false) return cb(new Error('Not ready to send data'))

from.send(null, function (err, buf) {
    if (err) return cb(err)

to.recv(buf, function (err) {
      if (err) return cb(err)

// Keep going until from is finished
      if (from.finished === true) return cb()

// recurse until finished
      return rtt(to, from, cb)
    })
  })
}
```

## API

### `var hs = simpleHandshake(isInitiator, [opts])`

Options include:

```js
{
  pattern: 'XX', // Noise handshake pattern. XX transmits the keys
  prologue: Buffer.alloc(0), // Defaults to empty Buffer
  staticKeyPair: {publicKey, secretKey}, // Local static key pair
  remoteStaticKey: Buffer, // Remote public key for other patterns eg. KK

// Callback when receiving a ephemeral public key from a remote peer.
  onephemeralkey(remoteEphemeralKey, cb),

// Callback when receiving a static public key from a remote peer.
  // Can be used to validate the key against certificates, CRL etc.
  onstatickey(remoteStaticKey, cb),

// Callback when handshaking has finished.
  // Can be used to access the handshakeHash or other state data, before it is
  // cleared
  onhandshake(state, cb),

// Normally not set, but may be if upgrading from another pattern.
  ephemeralKeyPair: {publicKey, secretKey},
  remoteEphemeralKey: Buffer
}
```

### `hs.waiting`

Flag indicating whether this instance is waiting for remote data, ie. `hs.recv` should be called next. If `false` `hs.send` should be called next.

### `hs.finished`

Flag indicating whether the handshake is finished. If an error occurs this flag
will also be set `true`, as the instance is no longer usable.

### `hs.split`

A Noise split containing a `{rx, tx}` object of Buffers which are
`32 byte shared secret | 8 byte nonce` (a Noise `CipherState`). `rx` at the
initiator matches `tx` at the responder.

### `hs.handshakeHash`

Channel binding handshake hash, available after the handshake has completed and
a split has occurred. See the [Noise Specification for details](https://noiseprotocol.org/noise.html#channel-binding)

### `hs.send(payload, cb(err, message))`

Encode a message with a `payload` (which if `null` defaults to an empty buffer),
for sending to the other party. Message is written in a preallocated Buffer,
meaning that the backing Buffer is reused at the next call to `.send`.

### `hs.recv(message, cb(err, payload))`

Decode a `message` with a `payload` (which may be an empty buffer). `payload` is
written in a preallocated Buffer, meaning that the backing Buffer for is reused
at the next call to `.recv`, so you must copy the payload if you need it for
longer. If a static key is received and `onstatickey` is set, this function is
called between parsing and `cb`.

### `hs.destroy()`

Destroy internal state in case you need to terminate the handshake before it has
completed.

### `SimpleHandshake.keygen()`

Generate a key pair for use with the `staticKeyPair` option
