Functions

createHashPassword(password: string, size: number): Promise<string>

Generates a hashed password using bcrypt.

options.password (string): The password to hash. options.size (number): The salt size to use for hashing. Returns a Promise that resolves to the hashed password.

comparePassword(password: string, hashed: string): Promise<boolean>

Compares a password with its hashed version.

password (string): The password to compare. hashed (string): The hashed password. Returns a Promise that resolves to a boolean indicating whether the password matches its hash.

Example Usage

Import the module

const bcryptFunctions = require('bcrypt-functions');

Hashing a Password

// Generate a hashed password with a custom salt size
(async () => {
    try {
        const hash = await bcryptFunctions.createHashPassword('your_password', 'size'); //size-example - 10
        console.log('Hashed password:', hash);
    } catch (err) {
        console.error('Error:', err);
    }
})();

Comparing a Password with a Hash

// Compare a password with its hash
(async () => {
    try {
        const isMatch = await bcryptFunctions.comparePassword('your_password', 'hashed-password');
        if (isMatch) {
            console.log('Password matches!');
        } else {
            console.log('Password does not match.');
        }
    } catch (err) {
        console.error('Error:', err);
    }
