How do I encrypt data before sending it to the database?

• pgsodium

  Modern cryptography for PostgreSQL using libsodium.

• libsodium.js

  libsodium compiled to Webassembly and pure JavaScript, with convenient wrappers.

If you want to encrypt the data on the client, so that no one, not even the server is able to decrypt it, then you could use a javascript client side encryption library like https://github.com/jedisct1/libsodium.js/. In this case the server would see opaque random looking bytea data from the client. Note this means the database can't search within that data, it can only serve the encrypted data back to the client for local decryption.
