Installing the command-line executable

Assuming you have Rust/Cargo installed, run this command in a terminal:

cargo install phasher

It will make the phasher command available in your PATH if you've allowed the PATH to be modified when installing Rust. cargo uninstall phasher uninstalls.

Readme

phasher

Simple CLI program hashing passwords into PHC strings.

Usage

Basic

Provide one string:

phasher "Hello world"

Or multiple strings: (since v0.2)

phasher "Hello world" GoodMorning 'GoodNight'

Algorithms

By default, phasher uses Argon2 to hash your data. You can also choose different algorithms.

phasher "Hello world" -a scrypt

stdin reading (since v0.2)

If there are no strings provided, phasher will read stdin instead:

phasher << EOF
Hello world
Welcome!
EOF

phasher < /path/to/a/file.txt

You can also use piping to pass data into phasher:

printf %s "Hello world" | phasher

cat /path/to/a/file.txt | phasher
