Simple OTP

Time-based and HMAC-based One-Time Password libraryfor node.js

About

simpleotp is a simple :-) OTP library for node.js.

It provides an implementation of both rfc 4226 (HOTP) and rfc 6238 (TOTP).

Installation

npm install --save simpleotp

Usage

HOTP

Example

const otp = require('simpleotp');
const hotp = new otp.Hotp();

// generate a token
const token = hotp.createToken({secret:'12345678901234567890',counter:7});

// validate the token
const data = {token: token, secret:'12345678901234567890',counter: 7};
const valid = hotp.validate(data); //true

const valid = totp.validate(data)
console.log(valid); // true
