AesKeyGenParams

Caution

The experimental module k6/experimental/webcrypto has graduated, and its functionality is now available globally through the crypto object. The k6/experimental/webcrypto is deprecated and will be removed in the near future.

To migrate your scripts, remove the k6/experimental/webcrypto imports and use the crypto object instead.

The AesKeyGenParams object represents the object that should be passed as the algorithm parameter into the generateKey operation when generating an AES key.

Properties

PropertyTypeDescription
namestringThe name of the algorithm. Possible values are AES-CBC, AES-CTR, and AES-GCM.
lengthnumberThe length of the key in bits. Possible values are 128, 192 or 256.

Example

JavaScript
import { crypto } from 'k6/experimental/webcrypto';

export default async function () {
  const key = await crypto.subtle.generateKey(
    {
      name: 'AES-CBC',
      length: 256,
    },
    true,
    ['encrypt', 'decrypt']
  );
}
