tinydtls is a library for Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) covering both the client and the server state machine. It is implemented in C and provides support for a minimal set of cipher suites suitable for the Internet of Things.
This library contains functions and structures that can help constructing a single-threaded UDP server with DTLS support in C99. The following components are available:
-
dtls Basic support for DTLS with pre-shared key mode and RPK mode with ECC.
-
tests The subdirectory tests contains test programs that show how each component is used.
When using the code from the git repository at GitHub, invoke
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
to re-create the configure script.
On Contiki, place the tinydtls library into the apps folder. After configuration, invoke make to build the library and associated test programs. To add tinydtls as Contiki application, drop it into the apps directory and add the following line to your Makefile:
APPS += tinydtls/aes tinydtls/sha2 tinydtls/ecc tinydtls
On RIOT, you need to add the line USEPKG += tinydtls
.
You can use RIOT/examples/dtls-echo/
as a guide for integrating tinyDTLS
to your application.
Also, if you need a specific commit of tinyDTLS you can modify
RIOT/pkg/tinydtls/Makefile
.
The current cmake support is experimental. Don't hesitate to report issues and/or provided fixes for it. For general and more details on using CMake, please consider CMake - help.
Usage:
mkdir tinydtls_build
cd tinydtls_build
cmake -Dmake_tests=ON <path-to-tinydtls>
cmake --build .
