Speakeasy is a one-time passcode generator, ideal for use in two-factor
authentication, that supports Google Authenticator and other two-factor devices.

It is well-tested and includes robust support for custom token lengths,
authentication windows, hash algorithms like SHA256 and SHA512, and other
features, and includes helpers like a secret key generator.

Speakeasy implements one-time passcode generators as standardized by the
[Initiative for Open Authentication (OATH)][oath]. The HMAC-Based One-Time
Password (HOTP) algorithm defined by [RFC 4226][rfc4226] and the Time-Based
One-time Password (TOTP) algorithm defined in [RFC 6238][rfc6238] are
supported. This project incorporates code from [passcode][], originally a
fork of Speakeasy, and [notp][].

Install

``sh
npm install --save speakeasy
`




Demo

This demo uses the generateSecret method of Speakeasy to generate a secret key,
displays a Google Authenticator–compatible QR code which you can scan into your
phone's two-factor app, and shows the token, which you can verify with your
phone. Includes sample code. https://sedemo-mktb.rhcloud.com/




Two-Factor Usage

Let's say you have a user that wants to enable two-factor authentication, and you intend to do two-factor authentication using an app like Google Authenticator, Duo Security, Authy, etc. This is a three-step process:

1. Generate a secret
2. Show a QR code for the user to scan in
3. Authenticate the token for the first time

$3

Use Speakeasy's key generator to get a key.

`js
var secret = speakeasy.generateSecret();
// Returns an object with secret.ascii, secret.hex, and secret.base32.
// Also returns secret.otpauth_url, which we'll use later.
`

This will generate a secret key of length 32, which will be the secret key for the user.

Now, we want to make sure that this secret works by validating the token that the user gets from it for the first time. In other words, we don't want to set this as the user's secret key just yet – we first want to verify their token for the first time. We need to persist the secret so that we can use it for token validation later.

So, store one of the encodings for the secret, preferably secret.base32, somewhere temporary, since we'll use that in the future to authenticate the user's first token.

`js
// Example for storing the secret key somewhere (varies by implementation):
user.two_factor_temp_secret = secret.base32;
`

$3

Next, we'll want to display a QR code to the user so they can scan in the secret into their app. Google Authenticator and similar apps take in a QR code that holds a URL with the protocol otpauth://, which you get automatically from secret.otpauth_url.

Use a QR code module to generate a QR code that stores the data in secret.otpauth_url, and then display the QR code to the user. This is one simple way to do it, which generates a PNG data URL which you can put into an tag on a webpage:

`js
// Use the qrcode package
// npm install --save qrcode
var QRCode = require('qrcode');

// Get the data URL of the authenticator URL
QRCode.toDataURL(secret.otpauth_url, function(err, data_url) {
console.log(data_url);

// Display this data URL to the user in an tag
// Example:
write('');
});
`

Ask the user to scan this QR code into their authenticator app.

$3

Finally, we want to make sure that the token on the server side and the token on the client side match. The best practice is to do a token check before fully enabling two-factor authenticaton for the user. This code applies to the first and subsequent token checks.

After the user scans the QR code, ask the user to enter in the token that they see in their app. Then, verify it against the secret.

`js
// Let's say the user says that the token they have is 132890
var userToken = '132890';

// Let's say we stored the user's temporary secret in a user object like above:
// (This is specific to your implementation)
var base32secret = user.two_factor_temp_secret;
`
`js
// Use verify() to check the token against the secret
var verified = speakeasy.totp.verify({ secret: base32secret,
encoding: ['base32'],
token: userToken });
`

verified will be true if the token is successfully verified, false if not.

If successfully verified, you can now save the secret to the user's account and use the same process above whenever you need to use two-factor to authenticate the user, like during login.

`js
// Example for saving user's token (varies by implementation):
user.two_factor_secret = user.two_factor_temp_secret;
user.two_factor_enabled = true
`

Now you're done implementing two-factor authentication!




General Usage

`js
var speakeasy = require("speakeasy");
`

#### Generating a key

`js
// Generate a secret key.
var secret = speakeasy.generateSecret({length: 20});
// Access using secret.ascii, secret.hex, or secret.base32.
`

#### Getting a time-based token for the current time

`js
// Generate a time-based token based on the base-32 key.
// HOTP (counter-based tokens) can also be used if totp is replaced by
// hotp (i.e. speakeasy.hotp()) and a counter is given in the options.
var token = speakeasy.totp({
secret: secret.base32,
encoding: ['base32']
});

// Returns token for the secret at the current time
// Compare this to user input
`

#### Verifying a token

`js
// Verify a given token
var tokenValidates = speakeasy.totp.verify({
secret: secret.base32,
encoding: ['base32'],
token: '123456',
window: 6
});
// Returns true if the token matches
`

#### Verifying a token and calculating a delta

A TOTP is incremented every step time-step seconds. By default, the time-step
is 30 seconds. You may change the time-step using the step option, with units
in seconds.

`js
// Verify a given token is within 3 time-steps (+/- 2 minutes) from the server
// time-step.
var tokenDelta = speakeasy.totp.verifyDelta({
secret: secret.base32,
encoding: ['base32'],
token: '123456',
window: 2,
step: 60
});
// Returns {delta: 0} where the delta is the time step difference
// between the given token and the current time
`

#### Getting a time-based token for a custom time

`js
var token = speakeasy.totp({
secret: secret.base32,
encoding: ['base32'],
time: 1453667708 // specified in seconds
});

// Verify a time-based token for a custom time
var tokenValidates = speakeasy.totp.verify({
secret: secret.base32,
encoding: ['base32'],
token: token,
time: 1453667708
});
`

#### Calculating a counter-based token

`js
// Get a counter-based token
var token = speakeasy.hotp({
secret: secret.base32,
encoding: ['base32'],
counter: 123
});

// Verify a counter-based token
var tokenValidates = speakeasy.hotp.verify({
secret: secret.base32,
encoding: ['base32'],
token: '123456',
counter: 123
});
`

#### Using other encodings

The default encoding (when encoding is not specified) is ascii.

`js
// Specifying an ASCII token for TOTP
// (encoding is 'ascii' by default)
var token = speakeasy.totp({
secret: secret.ascii
});
`

`js
// Specifying a hex token for TOTP
var token = speakeasy.totp({
secret: secret.hex,
encoding: ['hex']
});
`


#### Using other hash algorithms

The default hash algorithm is SHA1.

`js
// Specifying SHA256
var token = speakeasy.totp({
secret: secret.ascii,
algorithm: 'sha256'
});
`

`js
// Specifying SHA512
var token = speakeasy.totp({
secret: secret.ascii,
algorithm: 'sha512'
});
`

#### Getting an otpauth:// URL and QR code for non-SHA1 hash algorithms

`js
// Generate a secret, if needed
var secret = speakeasy.generateSecret();
// By default, generateSecret() returns an otpauth_url for SHA1

// Use otpauthURL() to get a custom authentication URL for SHA512
var url = speakeasy.otpauthURL({ secret: secret.ascii, label: 'Name of Secret', algorithm: 'sha512' });

// Pass URL into a QR code generator
`

#### Specifying a window for verifying HOTP and TOTP

Verify a HOTP token with counter value 42 and a window of 10. HOTP has a one-sided window, so this will check counter values from 42 to 52, inclusive, and return a { delta: n } where n is the difference between the given counter value and the counter position at which the token was found, or undefined if it was not found within the window. See the hotp․verifyDelta(options) documentation for more info.

`js
var token = speakeasy.hotp.verifyDelta({
secret: secret.ascii,
counter: 42,
token: '123456',
window: 10
});
`

How this works:

`js
// Set ASCII secret
var secret = 'rNONHRni6BAk7y2TiKrv';

// Get HOTP counter token at counter = 42
var counter42 = speakeasy.hotp({ secret: secret, counter: 42 });
// => '566646'

// Get HOTP counter token at counter = 45
var counter45 = speakeasy.hotp({ secret: secret, counter: 45 });
// => '323238'

// Verify the secret at counter 42 with the actual value and a window of 10
// This will check all counter values from 42 to 52, inclusive
speakeasy.hotp.verifyDelta({ secret: secret, counter: 42, token: counter42, window: 10 });
// => { delta: 0 } because the given token at counter 42 is 0 steps away from the given counter 42

// Verify the secret at counter 45, but give a counter of 42 and a window of 10
// This will check all counter values from 42 to 52, inclusive
speakeasy.hotp.verifyDelta({ secret: secret, counter: 42, token: counter45, window: 10 });
// => { delta: 3 } because the given token at counter 45 is 0 steps away from given counter 42

// Not in window: specify a window of 1, which only tests counters 42 and 43, not 45
speakeasy.hotp.verifyDelta({ secret: secret, counter: 42, token: counter45, window: 1 });
// => undefined

// Shortcut to use verify() to simply return whether it is verified as within the window
speakeasy.hotp.verify({ secret: secret, counter: 42, token: counter45, window: 10 });
// => true

// Not in window: specify a window of 1, which only tests counters 42 and 43, not 45
speakeasy.hotp.verify({ secret: secret, counter: 42, token: counter45, window: 1 });
// => false
`

Verify a TOTP token at the current time with a window of 2. Since the default time step is 30 seconds, and TOTP has a two-sided window, this will check tokens between [current time minus two tokens before] and [current time plus two tokens after]. In other words, with a time step of 30 seconds, it will check the token at the current time, plus the tokens at the current time minus 30 seconds, minus 60 seconds, plus 30 seconds, and plus 60 seconds – basically, it will check tokens between a minute ago and a minute from now. It will return a { delta: n } where n is the difference between the current time step and the counter position at which the token was found, or undefined if it was not found within the window. See the totp․verifyDelta(options) documentation for more info.

`js
var verified = speakeasy.totp.verifyDelta({
secret: secret.ascii,
token: '123456',
window: 2
});
`

The mechanics of TOTP windows are the same as for HOTP, as shown above, just with two-sided windows, meaning that the delta value can be negative if the token is found before the given time or counter.

`js
var secret = 'rNONHRni6BAk7y2TiKrv';

// By way of example, we will force TOTP to return tokens at time 1453853945 and
// at time 1453854005 (60 seconds ahead, or 2 steps ahead)
var token1 = speakeasy.totp({ secret: secret, time: 1453853945 }); // 625175
var token3 = speakeasy.totp({ secret: secret, time: 1453854005 }); // 222636
var token2 = speakeasy.totp({ secret: secret, time: 1453854065 }); // 013052

// We can check the time at token 3, 1453853975, with token 1, but use a window of 2
// With a time step of 30 seconds, this will check all tokens from 60 seconds
// before the time to 60 seconds after the time
speakeasy.totp.verifyDelta({ secret: secret, token: token1, window: 2, time: 1453854005 });
// => { delta: -2 }

// token is valid because because token is 60 seconds before time
speakeasy.totp.verify({ secret: secret, token: token1, window: 2, time: 1453854005 });
// => true

// token is valid because because token is 0 seconds before time
speakeasy.totp.verify({ secret: secret, token: token3, window: 2, time: 1453854005 });
// => true

// token is valid because because token is 60 seconds after time
speakeasy.totp.verify({ secret: secret, token: token2, window: 2, time: 1453854005 });
// => true

// This signifies that the given token, token1, is -2 steps away from
// the given time, which means that it is the token for the value at
// (-2 time step) = (-2 30 seconds) = 60 seconds ago.
`

As shown previously, you can also change verifyDelta() to verify() to simply return a boolean if the given token is within the given window.

$3

Generate a time-based one-time token. Specify the key, and receive the
one-time password for that time as a string. By default, it uses the current
time and a time step of 30 seconds, so there is a new token every 30 seconds.
You may override the time step and epoch for custom timing. You can also
specify a token length, as well as the encoding (ASCII, hexadecimal, or
base32) and the hashing algorithm to use (SHA1, SHA256, SHA512).

Under the hood, TOTP calculates the counter value by finding how many time
steps have passed since the epoch, and calls HOTP with that counter value.

Kind: function

Returns: String - The one-time passcode.

| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| options | Object | | |
| options.secret | String | | Shared secret key |

$3

Verify a time-based one-time token against the secret and return the delta.
By default, it verifies the token at the current time window, with no leeway
(no look-ahead or look-behind). A token validated at the current time window
will have a delta of 0.

You can specify a window to add more leeway to the verification process.
Setting the window param will check for the token at the given counter value
as well as window tokens ahead and window tokens behind (two-sided
window). See param for more info.

verifyDelta() will return the delta between the counter value of the token
and the given counter value. For example, if given a time at counter 1000 and
a window of 5, verifyDelta() will look at tokens from 995 to 1005,
inclusive. In other words, if the time-step is 30 seconds, it will look at
tokens from 2.5 minutes ago to 2.5 minutes in the future, inclusive.
If it finds it at counter position 1002, it will return { delta: 2 }.
If it finds it at counter position 997, it will return { delta: -3 }.

counter is missing, if the type is not one of hotp or totp, if the
number of digits is non-numeric, or an invalid period is used. Warns if
the number of digits is not either 6 or 8 (though 6 is the only one
supported by Google Authenticator), and if the hashihng algorithm is
not one of the supported SHA1, SHA256, or SHA512.

Returns: String - A URL suitable for use with the Google Authenticator.
