cipher-base

Abstract base class to inherit from if you want to create streams implementing the same api as node crypto streams.

Requires you to implement 2 methods _final and _update. _update takes a buffer and should return a buffer, _final takes no arguments and should return a buffer.

The constructor takes one argument and that is a string which if present switches it into hash mode, i.e. the object you get from crypto.createHash or crypto.createSign, this switches the name of the final method to be the string you passed instead of final and returns this from update.

#1	18810	tjuricek	First-pass at JavaScript client SDK. JavaScript requires Node with Gulp to "browserfy" the library. It's the easiest way I found to use the swagger-js project; bundle up a wrapping method. There is no JavaScript reference guide. The swagger-js doesn't really document what they do very well, actually. Overall I'm not particularly impressed by swagger-js, it was hard to even figure out what the right method syntax was. We may want to invest time in doing it better. This required setting CORS response headers, which are currently defaulted to a fairly insecure setting.
