Crypt::Bcrypt

Easy bcrypt password hashing in Perl6.

Synopsis

Password hashing and verification are one function each, and utilize a crypt()-style output string:

> use Crypt::Bcrypt;

> my $hash = bcrypt-hash("password")
$2b$12$EFUDTFQAf/6YwmnN/FKyX.kH0BsE/YNExuIQcI1WZXO/rwkmD8G2S

> bcrypt-match("password", $hash)
True

> bcrypt-match("wrong", $hash)
False

> bcrypt-hash("password", :rounds(15))
$2b$15$BcxIqbIcb1bDt3SHkEjO/ePcdeNV8f2xeFSQTyoiidYGUA03lptrm
