* PASSWORD HASH
The password hash should be an Argon2id hash, which can be generated
via:
* Specifying Passwords
** Specifying a Hash
You can generate a password hash and provide the hash as well. This
is useful so a user can send the administrator their password pre-hashed,
allowing the user to get their preferred password without exposing it
to the administrator.
Hydra uses Argon2id hashes, which can be generated like so:
$ nix-shell -p libargon2
[nix-shell]$ argon2 "$(LC_ALL=C tr -dc '[:alnum:]' < /dev/urandom | head -c16)" -id -t 3 -k 262144 -p 1 -l 16 -e
[nix-shell]$ tr -d \\\\n | argon2 "$(LC_ALL=C tr -dc '[:alnum:]' < /dev/urandom | head -c16)" -id -t 3 -k 262144 -p 1 -l 16 -e
foobar
Ctrl^D
$argon2id$v=19$m=262144,t=3,p=1$NFU1QXJRNnc4V1BhQ0NJQg$6GHqjqv5cNDDwZqrqUD0zQ
SHA1 is also accepted, but SHA1 support is deprecated and the user's
password will be upgraded to Argon2id on first login.
Examples:
Create a user with an argon2 password:
Example:
$ hydra-create-user alice --password-hash '$argon2id$v=19$m=262144,t=3,p=1$NFU1QXJRNnc4V1BhQ0NJQg$6GHqjqv5cNDDwZqrqUD0zQ' --role admin
Create a user with a password insecurely provided on the commandline:
SHA1 is also accepted, but SHA1 support is deprecated and the user's
password will be upgraded to Argon2id on first login.
** Specifying a plain-text password as an argument (dangerous)
This option is dangerous and should not be used: it exposes passwords to
other users on the system. This option only exists for backwards
compatibility.
Example:
$ hydra-create-user alice --password foobar --role admin
