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 🙏

Universal Module for HMAC (Hash-based Message Authentication Code) in JavaScript

npm version License: MIT

WARNING: At this time this solution should be considered suitable for research and experimentation, further code and security review is needed before utilization in a production application.

Introduction and Overview

This library is designed to 'universally' provide HMAC (Hash-based Message Authentication Code) functions, i.e., it works both on most modern browsers and on Node.js just by importing from NPM/source code. Note that in the design principle, the library fully utilizes native APIs like WebCrypto API to accelerate its operation if available.

Installation

At your project directory, do either one of the following.

  • From npm/yarn:
    $ npm install --save js-crypto-hmac // npm
    $ yarn add js-crypto-hmac // yarn
  • From GitHub:
    $ git clone https://github.com/junkurihara/jscu.git
    $ cd js-crypto-utils/packages/js-crypto-hmac
    & yarn build

Then you should import the package as follows.

import hmac from 'js-crypto-hmac'; // for npm
import hmac from 'path/to/js-crypto-hmac/dist/index.js'; // for github

The bundled file is also given as js-crypto-hmac/dist/jschmac.bundle.js for a use case where the module is imported as a window.jschmac object via script tags.

Usage

Compute Keyed-Hash (Message Authentication Code) of a Message

const msg = ...; // Uint8Array of arbitrary length
const key = ...; // Uint8Array of 32 bytes (since SHA-256 is used)
const hash = 'SHA-256';
hmac.compute(key, msg, hash).then( (hmac) => {
  // now you get a keyed-hash of msg in Uint8Array
});

Verify Keyed-Hash

const msg = ...; // Uint8Array of arbitrary length
const key = ...; // Uint8Array of 32 bytes (since SHA-256 is used)
const mac = ...; // computed keyed hash in Uint8Array
const hash = 'SHA-256';
hmac.verify(key, msg, mac, hash).then( (result) => {
  // now you get true or false as the result of verification
});
