Construct sqlcipher sqlite files for minimal.

Post by dkaip »

Hello.
How i can construct sqlcipher-1.1.8-testkey.db file?
As i see with minimal all sqlcipher files don't construct from scratch but there are in samples folder.
There is a way to make these files?
Thank you.
Jim.

*BTW run minimal from sources with C::B on Linux Mint.
I can not try to Windows get.

Those SQLCipher test database files are included for convenience. They were simply copied from the [SQLCipher repository](https://github.com/sqlcipher/sqlcipher).

If you need further assistance, please describe what you want to accomplish and/or where you experience problems.

Can add this library to wxSQLite3 lib to have the ability to construct cipher databases?

Thank you
Jim.

The SQLite encryption extension coming with wxSQLite3 supports all SQLCipher encryption schemes from version 1 up to version 4. That is, you don't need the SQLCipher library to be able to create, read and write database files using the SQLCipher encryption scheme.

In fact, wxSQLite3 allows to select the encryption scheme at runtime. The following encryption schemes are currently supported:
  • AES 128-bit (first encryption scheme introduced by wxSQLite3)
  • AES 256-bit (second encryption scheme introduced by wxSQLite3)
  • ChaCha20-Poly1305 (as introduced by sqleet) - now the wxSQLite3 default, but default can be changed at compile time
  • SQLCipher AES 256-bit version 1 to 4 (as supported by Zetetic's SQLCipher library)
  • RC4 (as supported by System.Data.SQLite) - not yet officially released, but available in trunk

There is a practical example to construct for example sqlcipher-1.1.8-testkey.db or other file?
Thank you
Jim.

Well, in principle the minimal sample shows you, how to set up a specific encryption scheme, and if you open a new database (instead of an existing one), you can create your own encrypted database.

The following link shows you some more details about the wxSQLite3 encryption extension.

Hello.
Suppose i have the code bellow ...

Code: Select all

wxSQLite3Database* initDB(void)
{
    wxString testDBName = wxS("dub.db");
    wxSQLite3Database* db = new wxSQLite3Database();
    db->Open(testDBName);
    if (!wxFileExists(testDBName))
    {
        db->UserAdd(wxS("user"), wxS("pswd"), true);
        db->UserLogin(wxS("user"), wxS("pswd"));
        db->ExecuteUpdate(wxS("CREATE TABLE texts (txt char(200))"));
        db->ExecuteUpdate(wxS("insert into texts values ('txt')"));
    }
    return db;
}
How i can take dub.db encrypted with any cipher type?

Thank you
Jim.

Well, sometimes it could help to read the documentation or to inspect the sample code.

If you are happy with the default encryption scheme (ChaCha20, if you didn't modify the build process), then simply call

Code: Select all

db->Open(dbFileName, passphrase);
to create or open an encrypted database file.

BTW, you have to check for the existence of the database file before calling the Open method, because the Open method creates the file.

If you want to use a specific non-default encryption cipher, you have to do it like this:

Code: Select all

wxSQLite3CipherSQLCipher sqlCipher4;
sqlCipher4.InitializeVersionDefault(4);
db->Open(dbFileName, sqlCipher4, passphrase);
You may adjust the cipher settings if necessary (see documentation of the cipher classes).

The following lines in your code only make sense if your application allows more than one user to access the same database, and you want to make sure that each user has to authenticate himself:

Code: Select all

        db->UserAdd(wxS("user"), wxS("pswd"), true);
        db->UserLogin(wxS("user"), wxS("pswd"));
This code has nothing to do with encryption. It is simply verified that the correct password for a certain user was given. See here for a detailed description of the user authentication module.
