Usage

Basic Usage

using KeyRotation;

// Encrypt an API key with current UTC date
string apiKey = "your-api-key-here";
string encryptedKey = KeyRotationHelper.EncryptApiKey(apiKey);
Console.WriteLine($"Encrypted Key: {encryptedKey}");

Advanced Usage

using KeyRotation;
using System;

// Encrypt with specific UTC date
DateTime specificDate = new DateTime(2024, 1, 15, 0, 0, 0, DateTimeKind.Utc);
string apiKey = "your-api-key-here";
string encryptedKey = KeyRotationHelper.EncryptApiKey(apiKey, specificDate);

// Validate encrypted key
bool isValid = KeyRotationHelper.ValidateApiKey(apiKey, encryptedKey, specificDate);
Console.WriteLine($"Key is valid: {isValid}");

// Validate with time tolerance (±5 minutes) to handle server/client time differences
bool isValidWithTolerance = KeyRotationHelper.ValidateApiKey(apiKey, encryptedKey, 5);
Console.WriteLine($"Key is valid with tolerance: {isValidWithTolerance}");

// Validate with specific date and tolerance
bool isValidWithSpecificTolerance = KeyRotationHelper.ValidateApiKey(apiKey, encryptedKey, specificDate, 10);
Console.WriteLine($"Key is valid with 10-minute tolerance: {isValidWithSpecificTolerance}");

// Get date string for specific date
string dateString = KeyRotationHelper.GetDateString(specificDate);
Console.WriteLine($"Date string: {dateString}"); // Output: 20240115
