This package is a full rework of my old package csprng-64 but now far better. I decided to release it as a completely separate package and deprecate the previous one as the entire code base was changed and I wasn't fond of the previous name either.

Key Features

• Generates secure random numbers using crypto.randomBytes(). Numbers can be of any magnitude and in any base from 2 to 64.
• Typesafe
• Bundled with Rollup for maximum size reduction (only 1kB minified + gzipped!), ES module support and browser support
• Generated TypeScript declarations
• Treeshakeable in Webpack

Install

Install with yarn or npm:

yarn add @favware/crypto

# npm install @favware/crypto

Usage

Call the function passing the number of required bits, and the radix of the output.

const { crypto } = require('@favware/crypto');
// import crypto from '@favware/crypto';

// Takes a bit length and base parameter
// base examples are base64 or base32
crypto(160, 64);

// You can also import the predefined Radix's so you can be sure you're using a supported radix
const { Radix } = require('@favware/crypto');
// import Radix from '@favware/crypto'
crypto(160, Radix.base64);
