Erlang bindings for NaCl

This library provides bindings for the NaCl cryptographic library for Erlang. Several such libraries exist, but this one is a re-write with a number of different requirements, and foci:

  • Erlang/OTP 17.3. This library needs the newest dirty scheduler implementation.
  • Uses the original NaCl sources over something like libsodium. This is a deliberate choice.
  • Tests created by aggressive use of Erlang QuickCheck.
  • provides gen_nacl, a gen_tcp wrapper for sending/receiving messages over a tcp socket.

This package draws heavy inspiration from "erlang-nacl" by Tony Garnock-Jones.
