NAME

+

+ hash_password - Calculate the hash of a new password, so that passwords can be reset +

+

SYNOPSIS

+ + + + + + + + + +
+hash_password [-p + +--password [password]] [-c + +--config file]
+ +

DESCRIPTION

+ +

hash_password calculates the hash of a supplied password using bcrypt.

+ +

hash_password takes a password as an parameter either on the command line +or the STDIN if not supplied.

+ +

It accepts an YAML file which can be used to specify parameters like the +number of rounds for bcrypt and password_config section having the pepper +value used for the hashing. By default bcrypt_rounds is set to 12.

+ +

The hashed password is written on the STDOUT.

+ +

FILES

+ +

A sample YAML file accepted by hash_password is described below:

+ +

bcrypt_rounds: 17 + password_config: + pepper: "random hashing pepper"

+ +

OPTIONS

+ +
+
+-p, --password +
+
Read the password form the command line if [password] is supplied, or from STDIN. +If not, prompt the user and read the password from the tty prompt. +It is not recommended to type the password on the command line +directly. Use the STDIN instead.
+
+-c, --config +
+
Read the supplied YAML file containing the options bcrypt_rounds +and the password_config section containing the pepper value.
+
+ +

EXAMPLES

+ +

Hash from the command line:

+ +
$ hash_password -p "p@ssw0rd"
+$2b$12$VJNqWQYfsWTEwcELfoSi4Oa8eA17movHqqi8.X8fWFpum7SxZ9MFe
+
+ +

Hash from the stdin:

+ +
$ cat password_file | hash_password
+Password:
+Confirm password:
+$2b$12$AszlvfmJl2esnyhmn8m/kuR2tdXgROWtWxnX.rcuAbM8ErLoUhybG
+
+ +

Hash from the prompt:

+ +
$ hash_password
+Password:
+Confirm password:
+$2b$12$AszlvfmJl2esnyhmn8m/kuR2tdXgROWtWxnX.rcuAbM8ErLoUhybG
+
+ +

Using a config file:

+ +
$ hash_password -c config.yml
+Password:
+Confirm password:
+$2b$12$CwI.wBNr.w3kmiUlV3T5s.GT2wH7uebDCovDrCOh18dFedlANK99O
