hotp-js - A JavaScript HOTP implementation

A JavaScript HOTP implementation (HMAC-Based One-Time Password Algorithm) as described in RFC4226. The library uses on crypto-js for the javascript HMAC-SHA1 implementation.

How to use it

Load the htop.js file, set the private key of the token and the count step.

otp = hotp("3132333435363738393031323334353637383930","4","dec6");

The following output formats are supported:

  • hex40 - truncated 10 bytes hexadecimal representation
  • dec6 - truncated 6 bytes decimal representation (HOTP)
  • dec7 - truncated 7 bytes decimal representation
  • dec8 - truncated 8 bytes decimal representation

Example

Check this web page that will run in your browser htop-js with the RFC4226 test values.

Security recommendations

  • If you implement software tokens, don't forget to protect the key of the token along with the count value (e.g. local encryption of the software token).
  • Code is experimental.
