wolfCLU

This is the wolfSSL: Command Line Utility (wolfCLU).

wolfSSL Install

To use this feature, please configure and install wolfssl with the following commands:

./configure --enable-pwdbased --enable-opensslextra && make && make check

If that succeeds, run:

sudo make install

--enable-pwdbased is for password based encryption allowing the user to specify a unique password known only to him/her self and the recipient of the encrypted file.

--enable-opensslextra provides utility for a hex to binary conversion of hexidecimal values.

--enable-base64encode enables Base64 encoding (not on by default)

Additional features that can be included when configuring wolfssl for encryption or decryption are:

    --enable-camellia
    --enable-des3
    --enable-blake2
    --enable-sha512
    --enable-fortress

Additional features that can be included when configuring wolfssl for key generation are:

    --enable-ed25519

##wolfCLU Install

After wolfssl is installed, install wolfCLU. In the directory wolfssl-examples/wolfCLU enter the following commands:

./autogen.sh
./configure
make
(optionally) make check OR make test
sudo make install

Now you should be able to use the wolfssl command line tool. To verify type:

wolfssl -h

If everything worked, you should see the wolfssl help page.
