Java Library that offers the features in the base Noise spec. It doesn’t implement Noise Pipes, NoiseLingoSocket or other newer extensions.
This library is a fork of Rhys Weatherley’s Noise-Java library, and Mike Hearn’s fork, who modernized it to benefit from newer Java versions.
Differences from the Rhys Weatherley’s Noise-Java library upstream project include:
-
Uses Gradle for the build and JavaDocs.
-
Fully modular (has a module-info descriptor)
-
Crypto fallbacks have been removed. This version can only use the JDK’s native AES/GCM support. This is because for users on modern Java the native AES/GCM support is better: it’s hardware accelerated using AES-NI, and removing emulations and fallback logic makes the library smaller and easier to review. The small size and easy auditability of Noise protocols is one of their primary benefits.
-
Updated to more modern Java language constructs, and fixed various static analysis warnings. Fleshed out a few JavaDocs.
-
Added the test vectors from Noise-C and made them run by default as part of
gradle test.
As a consequence of these changes, this version may be unsuitable for pre-Lollipop Android versions. The original might be better if you need to support those cases.
The main difference from Mike Hearn’s fork is that current fork is accessible through a public repository on Bintray.
