NAME

Crypt::Passphrase::Pepper::Base - A base class for pre-hashing pepper implementations

VERSION

version 0.014

DESCRIPTION

This is a base-class for pre-peppering implementations. You probably want to use Crypt::Passphrase::Pepper::Basic instead.

METHODS

new(%args)

This creates a new Crypt::Passphrase::Pepper::Base. As it's an abstract class you shouldn't call this unless you're writing a subclass.

hash_password($password)

This hashes the passwords with the active pepper.

needs_rehash($hash)

This returns true if the hash uses a different cipher or pepper, or if any of the encoder parameters is lower that desired by the encoder.

crypt_subtypes()

This class supports all the types supported by the underlaying encoder, with or without a peppered- prefix.

verify_password($password, $hash)

This will check if a password matches the hash, supporting both peppered and unpeppered hashed with the encoder.
