discord-token-decrypt

A Node.js package for retrieving and decrypting Discord token on macOS. This utility allows you to programmatically access your Discord token for automation, testing, or API integration purposes.

Description

discord-token-decrypt provides a simple API to access the encrypted Discord token from the local Discord installation on macOS. It handles all the complexity of:

• Accessing the Discord LevelDB database
• Retrieving the encryption key from macOS Keychain
• Decrypting the token using Discord's encryption algorithm

Installation

NPM

npm i discord-token-decrypt

GitHub

npm i https://github.com/lacherogwu/discord-token-decrypt

Requirements

• macOS (this package is not compatible with Windows or Linux)
• Node.js 16 or higher
• Discord desktop application installed on the system
• You must be logged in to Discord on your desktop application

Usage

import { getDiscordToken } from 'discord-token-decrypt';

// Get the Discord token
const token = await getDiscordToken();
console.log(token);

// You can now use this token for Discord API calls

API

getDiscordToken(): Promise<string>

Retrieves and decrypts your Discord authentication token.

• Returns:
  • Promise resolving to a string containing your Discord token

getDiscorBasedRequestHeaders(): Object

Provides HTTP headers that mimic an official Discord client request.

• Returns:
  • An object containing HTTP headers for Discord API requests

// Example: Making an authenticated request to Discord API
import { getDiscordToken, getDiscorBasedRequestHeaders } from 'discord-token-decrypt';

const headers = getDiscorBasedRequestHeaders();
headers.Authorization = await getDiscordToken();

const response = await fetch('https://discord.com/api/v9/users/@me', { headers });
const userData = await response.json();

makeDiscordKey(key: string): string

Creates a properly formatted key for the Discord LevelDB database.

• Parameters:
  • key: The base key string to format
• Returns:
  • A complete Discord LevelDB key with the proper prefix

withDiscordLocalStorage<T>(callback: (db: Level) => Promise<T>): Promise<T>

Provides safe access to the Discord LevelDB database by creating a temporary copy.

• Parameters:
  • callback: A function that receives the Level database instance and returns a promise
• Returns:
  • A promise resolving to the value returned by the callback
• Note:
  • Ensures proper cleanup of resources regardless of success or failure

// Example: Reading custom data from Discord's local storage
import { withDiscordLocalStorage, makeDiscordKey } from 'discord-token-decrypt';

const customData = await withDiscordLocalStorage(async db => {
	const key = makeDiscordKey('custom_data_key');
	return await db.get(key).catch(() => null);
});

How It Works

This package works by:

1. Copying Discord's LevelDB database to a temporary location
2. Retrieving the raw encrypted token from the database
3. Getting the encryption key from macOS Keychain
4. Decrypting the token using the appropriate algorithm

Security Notice

Your Discord token grants full access to your Discord account. Never share your token with others or include it in any public code repositories. This tool is intended for personal automation use only.
