A distributed maintained collection of patterns that indicate that something probably is secret
npm install is-secretA distributed maintained collection of patterns that indicate that
something probably is secret.
This is useful if you want to filter sensitive values in a data set.
This module uses a very simple algorithm that will not catch everthing.
Use at your own risk.
``
npm install is-secret --save
`js
var isSecret = require('is-secret')
var data = {
username: 'watson',
password: 'f8bY2fg8',
card: '1234 1234 1234 1234' // credit card number
}
Object.keys(data).forEach(function (key) {
if (isSecret.key(key) ||
isSecret.value(data[key])) data[key] = '**'
})
console.log(data)
// {
// username: 'watson',
// password: '**',
// card: '**'
// }
