web-auth-prf2

WebAuthn PRF Example

A lightweight TypeScript library that implements WebAuthn with PRF (Pseudo-Random Function) for secure authentication and encryption. This package allows users to register, authenticate, and encrypt/decrypt messages using derived keys.

Installation

Install the package using npm:

# npm install webauthn-prf-example

Usage

Register a User

To register a new user, call the handleRegister function:

// import { handleRegister } from "webauthn-prf-example";

document.getElementById("registerBtn").addEventListener("click", async () => {
  await handleRegister();
});

Authenticate a User

To authenticate an existing user, call the handleAuthenticate function:

// import { handleAuthenticate } from "webauthn-prf-example";

document
  .getElementById("authenticateBtn")
  .addEventListener("click", async () => {
    await handleAuthenticate();
  });

Save and Load Messages

To save and retrieve encrypted messages, use the saveMessage and loadMessages functions:

// import { saveMessage } from "webauthn-prf-example";

document
  .getElementById("saveMessageBtn")
  .addEventListener("click", async () => {
    await saveMessage();
  });

Logout

To log out and clear stored credentials and messages, use the handleLogout function:

// import { handleLogout } from "webauthn-prf-example";

document.getElementById("logoutBtn").addEventListener("click", async () => {
  await handleLogout();
});
