Fast "async" scrypt implementation in modern JavaScript.
npm install scrypt-async-modernFast "async" scrypt implementation in modern JavaScript.
Works in browsers without throwing "kill slow script" warnings due to
configurable interruptStep, which yields from calculation.
Also works with Node.js (but you should really use the C implementation for that).
Yarn:
$ yarn add scrypt-async-modern
NPM:
$ npm install scrypt-async-modern
To improve performance with small interruptStep values, use setImmediate shim,
such as
scrypt(password, salt, options): Promise
Derives a key from password and salt and fulfills a Promise with the derived key as the only argument.
If options.interruptStep is set, calculations are interrupted with setImmediate (or
zero setTimeout) at the given interruptSteps to avoid freezing the browser.
If it's not set or set to zero, the callback is called immediately after the
calculation, avoiding setImmediate.
- password: string or Array of bytes or Uint8Array
- salt: string or Array of bytes or Uint8Array
- options: object with key derivation options (see below)
#### Options:
- N: CPU/memory cost parameter, must be power of two (default = 16384),
alternatively you can specify logN where _N = 2^logN_
- r: block size parameter (default = 8)
- p: parallelization parameter (default = 1)
- dkLen: derived key length (default = 32)
- interruptStep: (optional) the amount of loop cycles to execute before the next setImmediate/setTimeout (defaults = 0)
- encoding: (optional) result encoding 'base64' or 'hex' (result will be a string), 'binary' (result will be a Uint8Array) or undefined (result will be an Array of bytes, default).
``javascript
const derivedKey = await scrypt("mypassword", "saltysalt", {
N: 16384,
r: 8,
p: 1,
dkLen: 16,
encoding: "hex"
});
console.log(derivedKey); // "5012b74fca8ec8a4a0a62ffdeeee959d"
