bcrypt compare data and hash arguments required code example
Example 1: bcrypt compare hash and password
var bcrypt = dcodeIO.bcrypt;
/** One way, can't decrypt but can compare */
var salt = bcrypt.genSaltSync(10);
/** Encrypt password */
bcrypt.hash('anypassword', salt, (err, res) => {
console.log('hash', res)
hash = res
compare(hash)
});
/** Compare stored password with new encrypted password */
function compare(encrypted) {
bcrypt.compare('aboveusedpassword', encrypted, (err, res) => {
// res == true or res == false
console.log('Compared result', res, hash)
})
}
// If u want do the same with NodeJS use this:
/* var bcrypt = require('bcryptjs') */
Example 2: bcrypt compare with hash
// password: the value passed from the password form input
// hash: the value requested from the database. This is the "encrypted" password
bcrypt.compare(password, hash).then(validPass => {
// validPass returns true or false
}.catch(err => console.log('error: ' + err));
