NuCypher KMS MockNet

Usage Instructions:

1. Install pyUmbral dependencies (perhaps, a good idea to spin up a virtualenv before):
   • pip3 install cryptography
   • pip3 install pynacl
   • Install libffi headers (in Debian-based Linux distributions: apt-get install libffi-dev)
2. Clone pyUmbral and install it:
   • git clone https://github.com/nucypher/pyUmbral.git
   • pip3 install -e pyUmbral
3. Copy the nucypher.py file from this project to your own.
   • Use as from nucypher import MockNetwork
   • The MockNetwork object is meant to be instantiated once and used as needed.
   • See the test.py file for an example of how it's used.

API Description:

1. MockNetwork.grant -- Creates a mock policy on the mocked network. This will return a string with a policy_id. You will use this policy ID to reencrypt and revoke the policy.
2. MockNetwork.reencrypt -- Re-encrypts a Capsule M times on the mock network. This requires a policy id, a min number of re-encryptions specified during pre.split_rekey, and a capsule object. This returns a list of capsule frags for Bob to attach to his capsule and use during pre.decrypt.
3. MockNetwork.revoke -- Revokes a policy from the network and makes re-encryptions impossible. This makes the MockNetwork object delete the stored kfrags stored on it per policy_id.
