node-crypt3

crypt(3) for Node.js

Installation

Install using npm install crypt3 and use:

Promise version using Q library

varcrypt=require('crypt3/q');

crypt('6Xz7sS6fEmnWScMb6Ayf363e5cdqF4Kh','$1$SrkubyRm$DEQU3KupUxt4yfhbK1HyV/').then(function(value){if(value!=='$1$SrkubyRm$DEQU3KupUxt4yfhbK1HyV/'){console.error('Access denied!');return;}}).fail(function(err){
...
});

Async version

varcrypt=require('crypt3/async');

crypt('6Xz7sS6fEmnWScMb6Ayf363e5cdqF4Kh','$1$SrkubyRm$DEQU3KupUxt4yfhbK1HyV/',function(err,value){if(err){
...
return;}if(value!=='$1$SrkubyRm$DEQU3KupUxt4yfhbK1HyV/'){console.error('Access denied!');return;}});

Sync version

varcrypt=require('crypt3/sync');

if(crypt('6Xz7sS6fEmnWScMb6Ayf363e5cdqF4Kh','$1$SrkubyRm$DEQU3KupUxt4yfhbK1HyV/')!=='$1$SrkubyRm$DEQU3KupUxt4yfhbK1HyV/'){console.error('Access denied!');return;}

Example password encoding

Use crypt(key[, salt]):

console.log(crypt('6Xz7sS6fEmnWScMb6Ayf363e5cdqF4Kh'));// Salt generated automatically using default SHA512console.log(crypt('6Xz7sS6fEmnWScMb6Ayf363e5cdqF4Kh',crypt.createSalt('md5')));// MD5 saltconsole.log(crypt('6Xz7sS6fEmnWScMb6Ayf363e5cdqF4Kh',crypt.createSalt('blowfish')));// Blowfish salt (only some Linux distros)console.log(crypt('6Xz7sS6fEmnWScMb6Ayf363e5cdqF4Kh',crypt.createSalt('sha256')));// SHA-256, glibc2 onlyconsole.log(crypt('6Xz7sS6fEmnWScMb6Ayf363e5cdqF4Kh',crypt.createSalt('sha512')));// SHA-512, glibc2 only

Create hashes

Use crypt.createSalt([type=sha512]) where type is one of md5, blowfish, sha256 or sha512 (default).

Please note that this library does not work on Windows, and usually has a limited functionality on other *NIX systems other than Linux.
