A few days back I was required to encode some string in base 64 URL safe. After some research I found that there are several variants of base 64. The one implemented in the code below corresponds to RFC-7515. Here is the code: function encodeBase64Url(str) { let s = new Buffer(str).toString(‘base64’); // Regular base64 encoder s = s.replace(‘=’, ”); // …
Easy! I discovered this recently and it is interesting to me. Here is a quick example: const crypto = require(‘crypto’); console.log(crypto.randomBytes(1).toString(“hex”)); console.log(crypto.randomBytes(2).toString(“hex”)); console.log(crypto.randomBytes(4).toString(“hex”)); console.log(crypto.randomBytes(8).toString(“hex”)); console.log(crypto.randomBytes(16).toString(“hex”)); console.log(crypto.randomBytes(32).toString(“hex”)); console.log(crypto.randomBytes(64).toString(“hex”)); When you run this code you might see something similar to this: E:\NodeJS>node randomCrypto.js d8 dccd 0709fee2 67d6d7c51cc59f0d af19069e601e47a9141d27d7d828a9d0 f83b7547452099462061734791da57443cc60828de7dcb8f7494eedceb3c889c e2e4a1faaf4190898aaf4fa786e20fe076237854ae4628127cb2eda4bafd3000b42788e347ade94d0c98614a40586b71ded3044879f791adedd6c0d4bb22e9ac The argument passed to the function is the length in bytes, when …
I’ve been looking for this answer for several weeks. Here is how to do it. Go to File > Preferences > Settings (or press Ctrl + ,) Add the following code in the USER SETTINGS tab “jshint.options”: { “esversion”: 6 } I have JSHint installed, if you don’t, you can install it from Visual Studio Code directly.

Recently I learned how to generate shared secrets using ECDH in Node.JS, but I still had to know how to use this shared secret. Here is one application for it. Use the ECDH to generate a shared secret and then use that shared secret to cipher/decipher messages between both parties, in this case Joe and Zoe. Here is the code: …
Super easy using crypto library. You can create a file called DiffieHellmanKeyPairGeneration.js for example and paste this code inside: console.log(‘\n- — ( Diffie Hellman Key Pair Generator ) — -‘); var crypto = require(‘crypto’); var bitSize = 2048; var dh = crypto.createDiffieHellman(bitSize); dh.generateKeys(); console.log(‘Private Key:\n’ + dh.getPrivateKey(‘base64’)); console.log(‘\n’); console.log(‘Public Key:\n’ + dh.getPublicKey(‘base64’)); console.log(‘— End —‘); Then run it, wait…wait…wait…wait…wait…wait…, and you …
Not a complicated task. Here is the code: var crypto = require(‘crypto’); console.log(); console.log(‘[ SUPPORTED CIPHERS ]\n’) console.log(crypto.getCiphers()); console.log(); console.log(‘[ SUPPORTED HASHES ]\n’) console.log(crypto.getHashes()); console.log(); console.log(‘[ SUPPORTED CURVES ]\n’) console.log(crypto.getCurves()); Your output should be similar to this: E:\Codes\NodeJS\Cryptography>node listAllAlgorithms.js [ SUPPORTED CIPHERS ] [ ‘CAST-cbc’, ‘aes-128-cbc’, ‘aes-128-cbc-hmac-sha1’, ‘aes-128-cbc-hmac-sha256’, ‘aes-128-ccm’, ‘aes-128-cfb’, ‘aes-128-cfb1’, ‘aes-128-cfb8’, ‘aes-128-ctr’, ‘aes-128-ecb’, ‘aes-128-gcm’, ‘aes-128-ofb’, ‘aes-128-xts’, ‘aes-192-cbc’, ‘aes-192-ccm’, ‘aes-192-cfb’, …
Easy as pie! var crypto = require(‘crypto’); var AES128 = “aes128”; var AES192 = “aes192”; var AES256 = “aes256”; var password = ‘Austin’; var plainText = ‘Texas to the bone!’; // ———————————————— var cipher = crypto.createCipher(AES128, password); var decipher = crypto.createDecipher(AES128, password); console.log(‘AES-128:’); // Encrypting with AES128 var encText = cipher.update(plainText, ‘utf8’, ‘hex’); encText += cipher.final(‘hex’); console.log(encText); // Decrypting with …
Today I ran into this basic problem. A quick search on google gave me the answer, I tested it, it worked, and the rest is history. Here is the code. let plainText = “Hello World!”; console.log(“Plaint text = ” + plainText); // Encoding to base64 let base64 = new Buffer(plainText).toString(‘base64’); console.log(“Encoded to base64 = ” + base64); // Decoding from …
Today I had to do this for my job (hash some info) and I think is a good opportunity to share the knowledge. Here is the code, you can simply copy it and paste it in a file called SHA256Hmac.js and run it. let crypto; try { crypto = require(‘crypto’); } catch (err) { console.log(‘crypto support is disabled!’); …
