Hi,

Does native node.js have RSA encryption functions at all ?

I did a :-

    var ciphers = crypto.getCiphers();

but only get :-

[ 'CAST-cbc',
  'aes-128-cbc',
  'aes-128-cbc-hmac-sha1',
  'aes-128-cfb',

OpenSSL provides RSA.

I have found a third party library for RSA :-

    https://github.com/rzcoder/node-rsa

I really don't want to use a third party library, even if it is native.

Now I am am wondering why its not available directly from Node.js's crypto
library functions ? The node library gives blowfish, why does it not give
RSA ?

Many thanks in advance,

Aaron
