OpenSslError is the shellout error passed through. From the shellout docs:

- Int: is the os error status code
- String: message about what went wrong

Values

decrypt

</>

pub fn decrypt(
  encrypted_file: String,
  password_file: String,
) -> Result(String, OpenSslError)

Decrypt an encrypted file to a plaintext string

encrypt

</>

pub fn encrypt(
  plaintext_file: String,
  encrypted_file: String,
  password_file: String,
) -> Result(Nil, OpenSslError)

Encrypt a plaintext string to an encrypted file

See README for details, but in short: you must ensure that both the plaintext file and the password file are secure. Delete the plaintext file once the encrypted file has been created from it.
