import { pbkdf2Sync } from "node:crypto";
pbkdf2Sync(): Buffer
Provides a synchronous Password-Based Key Derivation Function 2 (PBKDF2)
implementation. A selected HMAC digest algorithm specified by digest is
applied to derive a key of the requested byte length (keylen) from the password, salt and iterations.
If an error occurs an Error will be thrown, otherwise the derived key will be
returned as a Buffer.
The iterations argument must be a number set as high as possible. The
higher the number of iterations, the more secure the derived key will be,
but will take a longer amount of time to complete.
The salt should be as unique as possible. It is recommended that a salt is
random and at least 16 bytes long. See NIST SP 800-132 for details.
When passing strings for password or salt, please consider caveats when using strings as inputs to cryptographic APIs.
const {
pbkdf2Sync,
} = await import('node:crypto');
const key = pbkdf2Sync('secret', 'salt', 100000, 64, 'sha512');
console.log(key.toString('hex')); // '3745e48...08d59ae'
An array of supported digest functions can be retrieved using getHashes.
