pbkdf2-passworder

Password hashing and verification with PBKDF2 using the recommended configuration by NIST.

Installation

Install pbkdf2-passworder with your favorite package manager:

$ npm i pbkdf2-passworder
# or
$ yarn add pbkdf2-passworder
# or
$ pnpm i pbkdf2-passworder
# or
$ bun add pbkdf2-passworder

Usage

The pbkdf2-passworder package provides a convenient way to hash and verify passwords using the PBKDF2 algorithm. Follow the steps below to get started.

  1. Import the necessary functions from the pbkdf2-passworder package:
import pbkdf2 from 'pbkdf2-passworder';
  1. Hashing a Password:
const password = '123456';
const hashedPassword = await pbkdf2.hash(password);

The hash function takes a password as input and returns a Promise that resolves to the hashed password. The resulting hashed password is a string.

  1. Comparing a Password:
const inputPassword = '123456';
const isMatch = await pbkdf2.compare(inputPassword, hashedPassword);

The compare function takes an input password and a hashed password as input and returns a Promise that resolves to a boolean value. It indicates whether the input password matches the hashed password.

If the input password matches the hashed password, the result will be true. Otherwise, it will be false.

That's it! You can now use pbkdf2-passworder to securely hash and verify passwords using the PBKDF2 algorithm in your Node.js applications.
