# Mojolicious::Plugin::Bcrypt(3pm)

bcrypt your passwords!

## NAME

Mojolicious::Plugin::Bcrypt - bcrypt your passwords!

## VERSION

Version 0.04

## SYNOPSIS

Provides a helper for crypting and validating passwords via bcrypt.

```
    use Mojolicious::Plugin::Bcrypt;
    sub startup {
        my $self = shift;
        $self->plugin('bcrypt', { cost => 4 });
    }
    ...
```

Optional parameter `"cost"` is a non-negative integer controlling the cost of the hash function. The number of operations is proportional to 2^cost. The current default value is 6.

## HELPERS

### bcrypt

Crypts a password via the bcrypt algorithm.

```
    $self->bcrypt( $password, $settings );
```

`$settings` is an optional string which encodes the algorithm parameters, as described in Crypt::Eksblowfish::Bcrypt.

```
    sub signup {
        my $self = shift;
        my $crypted_pass = $self->bcrypt( $self->param('password') );
        ...
    }
```

### bcrypt\_validate

Validates a password against a crypted copy (for example from your database).

```
    sub login {
        my $self = shift;
        my $entered_pass = $self->param('password');
        my $crypted_pass = $self->get_password_from_db();
        if ( $self->bcrypt_validate( $entered_pass, $crypted_pass ) ) {
            # Authenticated
            ...;
        }
        else {
            # Wrong password
            ...;
        }
    }
```
