OTPAuth

One Time Password (HOTP/TOTP) library for Node.js, Deno, Bun and browsers.

Usage

Node.js

import * as OTPAuth from "otpauth";

// Create a new TOTP object.
let totp = new OTPAuth.TOTP({
  // Provider or service the account is associated with.
  issuer: "ACME",
  // Account identifier.
  label: "AzureDiamond",
  // Algorithm used for the HMAC function.
  algorithm: "SHA1",
  // Length of the generated tokens.
  digits: 6,
  // Interval of time for which a token is valid, in seconds.
  period: 30,
  // Arbitrary key encoded in Base32.
  secret: "NB2W45DFOIZA", // or 'OTPAuth.Secret.fromBase32("NB2W45DFOIZA")'
});

// Generate a token (returns the current token as a string).
let token = totp.generate();

// Validate a token (returns the token delta or null if it is not found in the
// search window, in which case it should be considered invalid).
let delta = totp.validate({ token, window: 1 });

// Get the remaining seconds until the current token changes.
let seconds = (totp.period * (1 - ((Date.now() / 1000 / totp.period) % 1))) | 0;

// Convert to Google Authenticator key URI format (usually the URI is encoded
// in a QR code that can be scanned by the user. This functionality is outside
// the scope of the project, but there are many libraries that can be used for
// this purpose).
//
// otpauth://totp/ACME:AzureDiamond?issuer=ACME&secret=NB2W45DFOIZA&algorithm=SHA1&digits=6&period=30
let uri = totp.toString(); // or 'OTPAuth.URI.stringify(totp)'

// Convert from Google Authenticator key URI format.
totp = OTPAuth.URI.parse(uri);

Deno

import * as OTPAuth from "https://deno.land/x/otpauth@VERSION/dist/otpauth.esm.js";

// Same as above.

Bun

import * as OTPAuth from "otpauth";

// Same as above.

Supported hashing algorithms

In Node.js, the same algorithms as Crypto.createHmac function are supported, since it is used internally. In Deno, Bun and browsers, the SHA1, SHA224, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512, SHA3-224, SHA3-256, SHA3-384 and SHA3-512 algorithms are supported by using the jsSHA library.
