ZamaneJS is a JavaScript implementation of the Zamane timestamping service. It provides a simple and easy-to-use API for interacting with the Zamane service.
npm install zamanejs
I'n theory this is just a basic implementation of RFC3161 but since there are some small changes
necessary for Zamane to work, I've decided to create a separate package. See ZamaneFix file for the details.
Zamane is an app written by TUBITAK for Turkish goverment that creates timestamps for given files. These timestamps could be used in court to prove as evidence that file or document existed at the claimed time.
This package is not affiliated with TUBITAK. It is an open-source project and is not responsible for any legal issues that may arise from the use of this package. It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that the use of this package complies with the laws of the country in which it is used.
For any questions or suggestions, you can contact me at my email.
Please include [zamane] in the subject line.
- Pure JavaScript implementation, no external cli dependencies required.
- Provides methods for hashing files and strings, requesting timestamps, and validating timestamps.
- Supports both file-based and string-based timestamping.
You can install ZamaneJS using npm or yarn:
``bash`
npm install zamanejsor
yarn add zamanejsCredentials
You need to buy credits in order to timestamp files. But for development and testing purposes you can request sample credentials from TUBITAK.

> In order to request a time test user, an e-mail should be sent to Kamu SM (bilgi[at]kamusm.gov.tr). "Time test user request" in the subject part of the relevant e-mail, and in the content, "Institution name, corporate tax identification number, institution address, corporate landline phone, authorized person name and surname, mobile phone number, authorized person e-mail" information. and whether Sha-256 or Sha-512 hash algorithm is desired.
please note that Kamu SM might require an email written in Turkish!

First, import the Zamane class and create a new instance with your credentials:
`javascript
import { Zamane } from 'zamanejs';
const zamane = new Zamane({
tssAddress: 'http://tzd.kamusm.gov.tr', // goverments sample timestamp server
hashAlgorithm: 'SHA-256', // the hash algorithm to use. either 'SHA-256' or 'SHA-512'
customerNo: '00000', // your customer number. only contains digits, if not required don't pass it
customerPassword: 'a1b2c3d4', // your customer password, if not required don't pass it
});
`
You can hash a file using the hashFromPath method:
`javascript`
zamane.hashFromPath("example.txt").then(hash => {
console.log("File Hash: ", hash);
});
You can hash a string using the hashFromString method:
`javascript`
zamane.hashFromString("Test Contents").then(hash => {
console.log("String Hash: ", hash);
});
You can request a timestamp using the timeStampRequest method:
`javascript`
const hash = await zamane.hashFromString("Test Contents");
zamane.timeStampRequest(hash).then(timestamp => {
console.log("Timestamp: ", timestamp);
});
