hash-it

Hash passwords with bcrypt, generate file checksums (SHA-256, SHA-512, MD5), and verify hashes. All from the command line. One dependency (bcryptjs).

Install

npm install -g @lxgicstudios/hash-it

Or run directly:

npx @lxgicstudios/hash-it password "my-secret"

Features

• Hash passwords with bcrypt (configurable rounds)
• Verify passwords against bcrypt hashes
• Generate file checksums (SHA-256, SHA-512, MD5)
• Hash arbitrary text strings
• Multiple output encodings (hex, base64)
• JSON output for scripting
• Colorful terminal output
• Just one external dependency (bcryptjs)

Usage

Hash a password

hash-it password "my-secret-password"
# => $2a$10$K8Y1...

Verify a password

hash-it verify "my-secret" '$2a$10$K8Y1...'
# => MATCH or NO MATCH

File checksum

hash-it checksum package.json
# => SHA-256: a1b2c3d4...

hash-it checksum --algo md5 large-file.zip
# => MD5: e5f6a7b8...

Hash text

hash-it text "hello world"
# => SHA-256: b94d27b9...

hash-it text --algo sha512 "hello world"
