Back to search · Project homepage

Description

Authen::OATH implements HOTP and TOTP One Time Password algorithms as defined by OATH (http://www.openauthentication.org). All necessary parameters are set by default, though these can be overridden. Both totp() and htop() have passed all of the test vectors defined in the RFC documents for TOTP and HOTP. totp() and hotp() both default to returning 6 digits and using SHA1. As such, both can be called by passing only the secret key and a valid OTP will be returned.
