BCrypt Hash a Password

See more Encryption Examples

Example to BCrypt hash a password.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.65 or greater.

Tcl

load ./chilkat.dll

# This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

set crypt [new_CkCrypt2]

# The BCrypt cost factor (work factor) can be set to a value from 4 to 31.
# The default value is 10.  We'll set it here explicitly to the default value
# to make this new property known.  This line of code can be omitted
# if the default value of 10 is desired.
CkCrypt2_put_BCryptWorkFactor $crypt 10

set bcryptHash [CkCrypt2_bCryptHash $crypt "mySecretPassword"]
puts "BCrypt hash = $bcryptHash"

# Sample output:
# BCrypt hash = $2a$10$H5kIVktMGzAPKGKNAe9DVu0iwEqfhv/o4MMJ/Dzw/MPy1leOE9NOK

# Note: Your output will be different because the BCryptHash method
# automatically generates a random salt.
