Optimized bcrypt written in typescript. Working in both Node.js and browser.
Heavily inspired by bcrypt.js.
Besides incorporating a salt to protect against rainbow table attacks, bcrypt is an adaptive function: over time, the iteration count can be increased to make it slower, so it remains resistant to brute-force search attacks even with increasing computation power. (see)
While bcrypt-ts is compatible to the C++ bcrypt binding, it is providing pure JavaScript and thus slower about 30%, effectively reducing the number of iterations that can be processed in an equal time span.
The maximum input length is 72 bytes (note that UTF8 encoded characters use up to 4 bytes) and the length of generated hashes is 60 characters.
- 0 dependencies, with ONLY 8KB Gzip size
- Written in typescript
- Provide tree-shakable ES module
On Node.js, the inbuilt crypto module's randomBytes interface is used to obtain secure random numbers.
In the browser, bcrypt.js relies on Web Crypto API's getRandomValues interface to obtain secure random numbers. If no cryptographically secure source of randomness is available, the package will throw an error.
-
If you are using this package in pure Node.js environment, then you will probably use the node bundle.
-
If you are using bundler like webpack and vite, then you will probably use the browser bundle.
-
If you meet any issues that a incorrect bundle is used, you can use
bcrypt-ts/nodeandbcrypt-ts/browserto force the correct bundle.
To hash a password:
import { genSaltSync, hashSync } from "bcrypt-ts";
const salt = genSaltSync(10);
const hash = hashSync("B4c0//", salt);
// Store hash in your password DB.To check a password:
import { compareSync } from "bcrypt-ts";
// Load hash from your password DB.
compareSync("B4c0//", hash); // true
compareSync("not_bacon", hash); // falseAuto-gen a salt and hash at the same time:
import { hashSync } from "bcrypt-ts";
const hash = hashSync("bacon", 8);To hash a password:
import { genSalt, hash } from "bcrypt-ts";
genSalt(10)
.then((salt) => hash("B4c0//", salt))
.then((hash) => {
// Store hash in your password DB.
});To check a password:
import { compare } from "bcrypt-ts";
// Load hash from your password DB.
const hash = "xxxxxx";
compare("B4c0//", hash).then((result) => {
// result is `true`
});
compare("not_bacon", hash).then((result) => {
// result is `false`
});Auto-gen a salt and hash:
import { hash } from "bcrypt-ts";
hash("bacon").then((hash) => {
// do something with hash
});Note: Under the hood, asynchronisation splits a crypto operation into small chunks. After the completion of a chunk, the execution of the next chunk is placed on the back of JS event loop queue, thus efficiently sharing the computational resources with the other operations in the queue.
