# Java hybrid encryption example This example shows how to encrypt data with Tink using hybrid encryption. It demonstrates the basic steps of using Tink, namely loading key material, obtaining a primitive, and using the primitive to do crypto. The key material was generated with Tinkey: ```shell tinkey create-keyset \ --key-template DHKEM_X25519_HKDF_SHA256_HKDF_SHA256_AES_256_GCM \ --out-format JSON --out hybrid_test_private_keyset.json tinkey create-public-keyset --in hybrid_test_private_keyset.json \ --in-format JSON --out-format JSON --out hybrid_test_public_keyset.json ``` ## Build and run ### Bazel ```shell git clone https://github.com/google/tink cd tink/java_src/examples bazel build hybrid_example ``` Encrypt a file: ```shell echo "some data" > testdata.txt ../bazel-bin/hybrid/hybrid_example encrypt \ ../hybrid/hybrid_test_public_keyset.json \ testdata.txt testdata.txt.encrypted ``` Decrypt a file: ```shell ../bazel-bin/hybrid/hybrid_example decrypt \ ../hybrid/hybrid_test_private_keyset.json \ testdata.txt.encrypted testdata.txt.decrypted diff testdata.txt testdata.txt.decrypted ```
