Hello,
I use following snippet to hash a user password:
crypto.randomBytes(32, function(err, buf) {
if (err) throw err;
user.salt = buf;
crypto.pbkdf2(req.body.password, user.salt, 25000, 512, function(err,
encodedPassword) {
if (err) throw err;
user.password = encodedPassword;
user.save(function(err, user) {
if (!err) return res.send(err, 500);
return res.json(user);
});
}.bind(this));
});
With buf.toString('base64') I can successfully encode the salt from a bin
buffer object to a string. The same unfortunatly doesn't work on the
derivedKey of pbkdf2.
This is some binary string which i can save to mongodb but I can't rebuilt
it (hashing the user's login password gets always a different key).
So how can I encode the derivedKey of pbkd2 to a in javascript usable
string (e.g. base64 or utf-8)?
Regards
