.hash

returns a string containing the hash and the salt

• password {crypto.BinaryLike}: the password, secret or anything (BinaryLike which string are included in it) to hash
• keylen {number}: optional hash length (default is 64)

• salt{crypto.BinaryLike}: optional salt used when hashing (it's safer not to pass it)

  .compare

  returns a boolean which is true if the passed hash and the password match

• hashString {string}: hashString to compare (which should contain the salt separated with a dot ("{salt}.{hash}"))

• password {crypto.BinaryLike}: password to be check if it matches the given hash
• keylen{number}: optional hash length (default is 64)

Usage

basic usage

import {hash, compare} from '@amirabbas/hash-util'; //there is also a default exportation to avoid name conflicts

const secret = "mySuperSecurePassword"; //your password to hash

(async ()=>{
  const hashedPwd = await hash(secret)
  console.log(hashedPwd) //"{salt}.{hash}"
  
  const samePwd = await compare(hashedPwd, secret) 
  console.log(samePwd) //true
})()
