LangChain-Encrypted-Mongo-Memory

A Secure, Encrypted MongoDB Chat Memory for LangChain Applications

LangChain-Encrypted-Mongo-Memory extends MongoDBChatMessageHistory to provide AES-128 encryption for all stored messages. Built on top of mores-encryption, it ensures sensitive conversation data remains protected at rest.

Perfect for securing chat histories containing PII, medical data, financial information, or any sensitive conversation data in your LangChain applications.

LangChain-Encrypted-Mongo-Memory removes the cryptographic complexity so you can focus on building — not configuring.

Features

• AES-128 Encryption — Messages encrypted using Fernet (AES-128 CBC with PKCS7 padding)
• HMAC-SHA256 Integrity — Cryptographic verification of message integrity
• URL-safe Base64 Output — Encrypted data stored in URL-safe format
• Drop-in Replacement — Compatible with LangChain's chat memory interface
• Persistent Storage — Long-term message storage in MongoDB
• Type Filtering — Supports human, AI, and system message types
• Zero-Config Encryption — Automatic key handling via mores-encryption

---

Installation

pip install langchain-encrypted-mongo-memory

Or install from source:

git clone https://github.com/HATAKEkakshi/langchain-encrypted-mongo-memory.git
cd langchain-encrypted-mongo-memory
pip install -e .

---

Setup

Generate Encryption Key

Run this command in your terminal:

python -c "from cryptography.fernet import Fernet; print('ENCRYPTION_KEY=' + Fernet.generate_key().decode())"

Save to .env

Copy the output and save it in your .env file:

ENCRYPTION_KEY=your_generated_key_here

Usage

1. Basic Usage

from langchain_encrypted_mongo_memory import EncryptedMongoDBChatMessageHistory
from langchain_core.messages import HumanMessage, AIMessage

# Create encrypted history
history = EncryptedMongoDBChatMessageHistory(
    connection_string="mongodb://localhost:27017",
    database_name="chat_app",
    collection_name="encrypted_messages",
    session_id="user-123"
)

# Add messages (automatically encrypted)
history.add_message(HumanMessage(content="Hello, how are you?"))
history.add_message(AIMessage(content="I'm doing great, thank you!"))

# Retrieve messages (automatically decrypted)
messages = history.messages
for msg in messages:
    print(f"{msg.type}: {msg.content}")

2. Clear Session History

# Clear history for the current session
history.clear()

Why Use LangChain-Encrypted-Mongo-Memory?

Because securing chat history shouldn't be painful.

Most developers store sensitive conversation data in MongoDB without encryption — exposing PII, medical records, and confidential information to potential breaches.

LangChain-Encrypted-Mongo-Memory gives you:

• Automatic Encryption — Messages encrypted before storage
• Transparent Decryption — Seamless retrieval without extra code
• LangChain Compatible — Works with all LangChain memory patterns
• Production Ready — Built on proven cryptographic standards
• Minimal Code Changes — Drop-in replacement for MongoDBChatMessageHistory
