@aws-crypto/random-source-browser
Access to a secure random source in a browser.
Math.random
is not acceptable for cryptographic operations.
This module exports a consistent interface for modern browsers.
Usage
import {randomValues, randomValuesOnly} from '@aws-crypto/random-source-browser'
const seedData2 = await randomValues(16);
const seedData1 = await randomValuesOnly(16);
randomValues vs randomValuesOnly
Some browsers only implement crypto.getRandomValues
and not crypto.subtle
.
If you need to have access to both, you should use randomValues
. But if
you want to use some cryptographic fallback like MSRCrypto randomValuesOnly
is the preferred function.
Test
npm test
