This is a collection of Django Model Field classes that are encrypted using PyNaCl. This package is largely based on `django-encrypted-fields <https://github.com/defrex/django-encrypted-fields>`_, which makes use of the outdated Keyczar library to encrypt fields. Besides that, it is inspired by `django-fernet-field <https://github.com/orcasgit/django-fernet-fields>`_.


About PyNaCl
------------

`PyNaCl <https://github.com/pyca/pynacl>`_ is a Python binding to `libsodium <https://github.com/jedisct1/libsodium>`_, which is a fork of the `Networking and Cryptography library <https://nacl.cr.yp.to>`_. These libraries have a stated goal of improving usability, security and speed.


Getting Started
----------------

.. code:: shell

	    ~ pip install django-nacl-fields


Create a key to be used for encryption.

.. code:: shell

	    ~ python manage.py createkey
	    # put the following line in your settings.py:
	    NACL_FIELDS_KEY = 'cGa9QJDY/FJhbITXHnrIqlgyeLDS04/WqWtgqPEIU4A='


In your ``settings.py`` (or append it automatically after generation using the ``-f`` flag)

.. code:: python

	NACL_FIELDS_KEY = 'cGa9QJDY/FJhbITXHnrIqlgyeLDS04/WqWtgqPEIU4A='


Then, in your ``models.py``

.. code:: python

	from django.db import models
	from fields import NaClTextField


	class MyModel(models.Model):
		text_field = NaClTextField()


Use your model as normal and your data will be encrypted in the database.

**Note:** Encrypted data cannot be used to query or sort. In SQL, these will all look like text fields with random text.


Available Fields
----------------

Currently build in and unit-tested fields.

-  ``NaClCharField``
-  ``NaClTextField``
-  ``NaClDateTimeField``
-  ``NaClIntegerField``
-  ``NaClFloatField``
-  ``NaClEmailField``
-  ``NaClBooleanField``


Encrypt Your Own Fields
-----------------------

Making new fields can be done by using the build-in NaClFieldMixin:

.. code:: python

	from django.db import models
	from fields import NaClFieldMixin

	class EncryptedIPAddressField(NaClFieldMixin, models.IPAddressField):
		pass


Please report any issues you encounter when trying this.
