defmodule Pbkdf2 do @moduledoc """ Elixir wrapper for the Pbkdf2 password hashing function. For a lower-level API, see `Pbkdf2.Base`. ## Configuration The following parameter can be set in the config file: * `:rounds` - computational cost * the number of rounds * `160_000` is the default If you are hashing passwords in your tests, it can be useful to add the following to the `config/test.exs` file: # Note: Do not use this value in production config :pbkdf2_elixir, rounds: 1 ## Pbkdf2 Pbkdf2 is a password-based key derivation function that uses a password, a variable-length salt and an iteration count and applies a pseudorandom function to these to produce a key. The original implementation used SHA-1 as the pseudorandom function, but this version uses HMAC-SHA-512, the default, or HMAC-SHA-256. ## Warning It is recommended that you set a maximum length for the password when using Pbkdf2. This maximum length should not prevent valid users from setting long passwords. It is instead needed to combat denial-of-service attacks. As an example, Django sets the maximum length to `4096` bytes. For more information, see [this link](https://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2013/sep/15/security/). """ use Comeonin alias Pbkdf2.Base @doc """ Hashes a password with a randomly generated salt. ## Options In addition to the options for `Pbkdf2.Base.gen_salt/1` (`:salt_len` and `:format`), this function also takes options that are then passed on to the `hash_password` function in the `Pbkdf2.Base` module. See the documentation for `Pbkdf2.Base.hash_password/3` for further details. ## Examples The following examples show how to hash a password with a randomly-generated salt and then verify a password: iex> hash = Pbkdf2.hash_pwd_salt("password") ...> Pbkdf2.verify_pass("password", hash) true iex> hash = Pbkdf2.hash_pwd_salt("password") ...> Pbkdf2.verify_pass("incorrect", hash) false The next examples show how to use some of the various available options: iex> hash = Pbkdf2.hash_pwd_salt("password", rounds: 100_000) ...> Pbkdf2.verify_pass("password", hash) true iex> hash = Pbkdf2.hash_pwd_salt("password", digest: :sha256) ...> Pbkdf2.verify_pass("password", hash) true iex> hash = Pbkdf2.hash_pwd_salt("password", digest: :sha256, format: :django) ...> Pbkdf2.verify_pass("password", hash) true """ @impl true def hash_pwd_salt(password, opts \\ []) do Base.hash_password(password, Base.gen_salt(opts), opts) end @doc """ Verifies a password by hashing the password and comparing the hashed value with a stored hash.
