Detailed Usage

Eight returns instance which takes several defined optional parameters and any another parameter is hashed together with it:

import eight from "eight"

const fingerprint = eight({
  hash: "ripe160",  // <sha512 || sha256 || ripe160>
  resolution: true,  // <boolean>
  flash: true,  // <boolean>
  plugins: true,  // <boolean>
  strong: false,  // <boolean>
  anythingelse: "ABCD"  // additional entropy
})

fingerprint()
// E9D0C22416262B2F51A4402318060A206620BED2

fingerprint({ ip: "187.30.93.12" })
// 2416262B2F51A4402318060A206620BED2E9D0C2

fingerprint({ ip: "39.120.11.2" }) 
// 4402318060A206620BED2E9D0C22416262B2F51A

API

Fallback into null, if user doesn't posses enough data due to incognito mode or privacy extensions:

fingerprint({ fallback: true }) 

Check Flash and fingerprint graphic card rendering defects and installed version:

fingerprint({ flash: true }) 

Pass any param that needs to considered

It's possible to customize fingerprinting with own parameters which are passed as params. This way anything (like cookies, ip adress or username) can be considered.

fingerprint({ ip: "133.98.32.55" })
// 2416262B2F51A4402318060A206620BED2E9D0C2

fingerprint({ cookies: JSON.stringify(cookies) })
// 20BED2E9D0C22416262B2F51A4402318060A2066

fingerprint({ whatever: "ABCDEF" })
// F51A4402318060A206620BED2E9D0C22416262B2
