Functions

func CompareWith

func CompareWith(plain string, hash string) bool

CompareWith reports whether a plain text matches with hash.

For compatibility purposes, it can compare using both SHA256 and bcrypt algorithms. Hashes starting with "$" are assumed to be a bcrypt hash; otherwise, they are treated as SHA256 hashes.

func Do

func Do(pwd string) (string, error)

Do takes a string and returns its hash.

Types

type Hasher

type Hasher interface {
	Do(plain string) (string, error)            // Hash takes a string and returns its hash.
	CompareWith(plain string, hash string) bool // Compare takes a plaintext password and a hashed password, then checks if they match.
}
