import { hkdf } from "node:crypto";
hkdf(digest: string,irm: BinaryLike | KeyObject,salt: BinaryLike,info: BinaryLike,keylen: number,callback: (err: Error | null,derivedKey: ArrayBuffer,) => void,): void
HKDF is a simple key derivation function defined in RFC 5869. The given ikm
, salt
and info
are used with the digest
to derive a key of keylen
bytes.
The supplied callback
function is called with two arguments: err
and derivedKey
. If an errors occurs while deriving the key, err
will be set;
otherwise err
will be null
. The successfully generated derivedKey
will
be passed to the callback as an ArrayBuffer. An error will be thrown if any
of the input arguments specify invalid values or types.
import { Buffer } from 'node:buffer'; const { hkdf, } = await import('node:crypto'); hkdf('sha512', 'key', 'salt', 'info', 64, (err, derivedKey) => { if (err) throw err; console.log(Buffer.from(derivedKey).toString('hex')); // '24156e2...5391653' });
irm: BinaryLike | KeyObject
salt: BinaryLike
The salt value. Must be provided but can be zero-length.
info: BinaryLike
Additional info value. Must be provided but can be zero-length, and cannot be more than 1024 bytes.
The length of the key to generate. Must be greater than 0. The maximum allowable value is 255
times the number of bytes produced by the selected digest function (e.g. sha512
generates 64-byte hashes, making the maximum HKDF output 16320 bytes).
