Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

random-id-hmac-bech32m

This module allows you to generate random tokens/IDs, and verify them later with HMAC. Think of this like a checksum that you can be reasonable confident was generated on your service.

Not cryptographically audited. Likely vulnerable to timing attacks, which may or may not be a concern for your use-case.

Example

Installing

Installing with npm

npm i @aimoda/random-id-hmac-bech32m

Installing with yarn

yarn add @aimoda/random-id-hmac-bech32m

Usage with JavaScript

const key = crypto.getRandomValues(new Uint8Array(20)); // 20*8 = 160 for SHA-1
const importedKey = await crypto.subtle.importKey('raw', key, { name: 'HMAC', hash: 'SHA-1' }, true, ['sign']);
const encoded_result = await generateRandomIDwithHMACinBech32m(importedKey, "npm", 8, 63); // Generate a 64-bit ID with the prefix "npm", and ensure it doesn't go over 63 characters.
console.log(encoded_result); // Example: npm1jfmq9ulpljh2wx4sw5cwzrvlv3gcczarv7yts52mxfgc6t23pqr

const validated_result = await verifyRandomIDwithHMACinBech32m(importedKey, encoded_result);
console.log(validated_result); // Example: true

Usage with Cloudflare Workers

name = "download-worker-dev"
main = "./src/index.ts"
compatibility_date = "2023-02-15"

[[unsafe.bindings]]
type = "secret_key"
name = "DOWNLOAD_KEY"
format = "raw"
algorithm = { name = "HMAC", hash = "SHA-1" }
usages = ["sign"]
# openssl rand -base64 20
key_base64 = "6ZuAbhvUNnfx1wUFNb6p7716mnQ="
interface Env {
    DOWNLOAD_KEY: CryptoKey
}

export default {
    async fetch(request: Request, env: Env) {
        const dl_key = await generateRandomIDwithHMACinBech32m(env.DOWNLOAD_KEY, "dl", 20, 90);
        return new Response(dl_key);
    }
}

Thanks to @KianNH for his blog on using CryptoKey bindings.
