Goldfinger

Important

This version is compatible with androidx.biometric. If you do not want to use androidx.biometric, feel free to use older version of Goldfinger.

Quick guide

Add mavenCentral

To include Goldfinger in your project, you have to add buildscript dependencies in your project level build.gradle:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
}

Add dependency

implementation 'co.infinum:goldfinger:2.1.0'

Initialize

Goldfinger.Builder(context).build()

Check prerequisites

if (goldfinger.canAuthenticate(@AuthenticatorTypes int authenticators)) {
  /* Authenticate */
}

Build params

PromptParams are directly linked to BiometricPrompt.PromptInfo so be sure to read which parameters are required.

Goldfinger.PromptParams params = new Goldfinger.PromptParams.Builder(activity)
  .title("Title")
  .negativeButtonText("Cancel")
  .description("Description")
  .subtitle("Subtitle")
  .build();

I also suggest looking at ValidateUtils class to understand what is allowed by the Biometric library.

Authenticate

goldfinger.authenticate(params, new Goldfinger.Callback() {
    @Override
    public void onError(@NonNull Exception e) {
        /* Critical error happened */
    }

    @Override
    public void onResult(@NonNull Goldfinger.Result result) {
        /* Result received */
    }
});

You can see all Goldfinger methods here.

Rx module

Goldfinger has separate Rx module in case you want to use reactive approach.

Add dependencies

implementation 'co.infinum:goldfinger:2.1.0'
implementation 'co.infinum:goldfinger-rx:2.1.0'

Initialize

RxGoldfinger.Builder(context).build()

Authenticate

goldfinger.authenticate(params).subscribe(new DisposableObserver<Goldfinger.Result>() {

  @Override
  public void onComplete() {
    /* Fingerprint authentication is finished */
  }

  @Override
  public void onError(Throwable e) {
    /* Critical error happened */
  }

  @Override
  public void onNext(Goldfinger.Result result) {
    /* Result received */
  }
});

You can see all RxGoldfinger methods here.

Configuration

If you don’t like default implementations, you can easily modify them using Goldfinger.Builder object.

Goldfinger.Builder(context)
  .logEnabled(true)
  .cipherFactory(factory)
  .cipherCrypter(crypter)
  .build()

Important: Both Factory and Crypter should use same object type. If MacFactory is used, be sure to also provide MacCrypter!

Factory (Cipher, Mac, Signature)

Factory class should be used to create Cipher/Mac/Signature which will be used internally when CryptoObject is created.

new CipherFactory() {
  @Nullable
  @Override
  public Cipher createEncryptionCrypter(String key) {
     /* Create Cipher for encryption */
  }

  @Nullable
  @Override
  public Cipher createDecryptionCrypter(String key) {
    /* Create Cipher for decryption */
  }
};

Goldfinger will default to AesCipherFactory if other implementation is not provided.

Crypter (Cipher, Mac, Signature)

Crypter class should be used to encrypt/decrypt data with Cipher/Mac/Signature which was created with Factory above.

new CipherCrypter() {
  @Nullable
  @Override
  public String encrypt(@NonNull Cipher crypter, @NonNull String value) {
    /* Encrypt data with given crypter */
  }

  @Nullable
  @Override
  public String decrypt(@NonNull Cipher crypter, @NonNull String value) {
    /* Decrypt data with given crypter */
  }
};

Goldfinger will default to Base64CipherCrypter if other implementation is not provided.

Logging

Logging is off by default. You can enable it by calling Goldfinger.Builder(context).logEnabled(true).

Known issues

  • Android Oreo does not throw KeyPermanentlyInvalidatedException - Link
