Crypt(3) MD5 hashing algorithm in TypeScript

Simple implementation of Crypt(3) MD5 hashing method from glibc fully written in TypeScript without any dependency. The function allows to generate $1$ at the beginning of password hashes and is fully compatible with crypt function in PHP.

Installation

npm install crypt3-md5

Quick Start 🚀

🧂 Hash password with salt

import { crypt } from 'crypt3-md5';

const cryptMd5 = crypt('password', '$1$abcdefgh$'); // '$1$abcdefgh$irWbblnpmw.5z7wgBnprh0'

Hash password without salt

import { crypt } from 'crypt3-md5';

const cryptMd5 = crypt('not salty password'); // '$1$$IObRb8Uen32kklOUL1C78.'
