AesCryptFromStreamExample

AesCryptFromStreamExample is an assembly/ library to serialize and encrypt data structures from C# as XML string to a file using AESCrypt.

Basic usage

private void Test()
{
    var dbConnections = new List<DbConnection>
    {
        new DbConnection
        {
            ConnectionString = "cloud.asdf.org:user:password",
            Name = "ASDF cloud"
        },
        new DbConnection
        {
            ConnectionString = "cloud.asdf2.org:user:password",
            Name = "ASDF cloud2"
        }
    };
    using (var aesCryptor = new AesCryptor())
    {
        aesCryptor.EncryptDbConnectionsToFile("Test.txt", dbConnections, "TestPW");
        //File Test.txt.aes created with the encrypted data types
        var dbConnectionsLoaded = aesCryptor.DecryptFileToDbConnection("Test.txt", "TestPW");
        //dbConnectionsLoaded contains the stored data types in the file
    }
}

Additional information

This example only works with the AESCrypt library from NuGet.

You can easily customize the services when changing the DbConnection class, the XmlRootAttribute("DbConnections") in the AESCryptor class and the DbConnections class (Especially the [XmlRoot("DbConnections")]) to anything else (Maybe even a generic way with T parameter is possible).
