Pass the Key entity to the encryption method on encrypt/decrypt

Created on 15 June 2016, almost 9 years ago

Updated 7 July 2024, 10 months ago

Motivation

Currently the Encrypt service passes the key value to the encryption method on encrypt/decrypt.
Passing the entire Key entity would allow for more advanced integration between the method plugin and the Key entity.

An AES encryption method would be able to integrate with an AES encryption key that would hold a reference to the necessary IV (input vector) string.

Proposed solution

Modify the encrypt, decrypt & checkDependencies methods on EncryptionMethodInterface to receive \Drupal\key\KeyInterface objects instead of strings.
Modify the encrypt & decrypt methods in EncryptService class to pass the \Drupal\key\KeyInterface objects instead of strings to the EncryptionMethod encrypt/decrypt methods.
Modify the validate method in EncryptionProfile to pass the \Drupal\key\KeyInterface objects instead of strings to the checkDependencies method on EncryptionMethodInterface.

3.x has been released, so this would have to be moved to 4.x. Also, the patch no longer applies to 3.x-dev, so marking "Needs work."
