node-cmd-bcrypt

A simple utility to hash plaintext arrays or line delimited text files into bcrypt hashes. Provides both a utility for command line use, and a module function for use in your application. The command line utility reads from stdin and outputs to stdout, and includes several options for specifying bcrypt complexity, and inclusion of the plaintext in the output. Easily used as a 'pipe' to process the output of other commands. The function accepts an array of strings and an options object.

Usage

Command Line Utility

$ npm install -g @rbtdev/node-cmd-bcrypt

$ passwdjs --help
  Usage: passwdjs <cmd>


  Commands:

    hash [options] [passwords...]  Uses bcryptjs to hash each password provided or reads lines from stdin if no passwords are provided.

  Command line tool to hash and compare bcrypt passwords.

  Options:

    -h, --help     output usage information
    -V, --version  output the version number

  Examples:

    $ passwdjs hash -j -r 12 password1 password2 password3 
    {
      "$2a$12$QHEdi2VK9HhipSs9rVfQYOS0FwKnjxoL/1mhqkD67lZJ0luPhWX1u": "password1",

Installation

$ npm install --save @rbtdev/node-cmd-bcrypt

Hash an array of passwords, and return results in an object

var passwdjs = require('@rbtdev/node-cmd-bcrypt');

var passwords = [
    'password1',
    'password2',
    'password3'
]

var opts = {
    rounds: 12, // rounds to use (complexity).  see bcryptjs for details. 
    json: true, // true to output JSON object with hashes and passwords
};

/**
 * Hash array of passwords, result in object
 */
passwdjs(passwords, opts)
    .on('line', doSomethingWithLine)
    .on('done', doSomethingWithResultsObj)

    console.log('line =', line);
};

function doSomethingWithResultsObj(results) {
    for (var hash in results) {
        var plaintext = results[hash]
        console.log("the bcrypt hash for " + plaintext + " is " + hash);
    };
}

function doSomethingWithError(err) {
    console.log(err);
}
