mongoose-bcrypt

Mongoose plugin encrypting field(s) with bcrypt and providing methods to encrypt and verify.

Installation

$ npm install mongoose-bcrypt

Default usage

Adds encrypted password field with instance methods verifyPassword(password,callback) and verifyPasswordSync(password) and static method encryptPassword(password,callback). Asynchronous methods support both callbacks and promises.

var demoSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
  demoField: String
});

// Add { password: String } to schema
demoSchema.plugin(require('mongoose-bcrypt'));

var Demo = mongoose.model('Demo', demoSchema);

// Create demo instance with encrypted password
Demo.create({
  demoField: 'someValue',
  password: 'mySecretPassword'
}, function(err, demo) {
  if (!err) {
    // Verify password with callback => Valid (callback)
    demo.verifyPassword('mySecretPassword', function(err, valid) {
      if (err) {
        console.log(err)
      } else if (valid) {
        console.log('Valid (callback)');
      } else {
        console.log('Invalid (callback)');
      }
    });
    // Verify password using promise => Valid (promise)
    demo.verifyPassword('mySecretPassword')
      .then(function(valid) {
        if (valid) {
          console.log('Valid (promise)');
        } else {
          console.log('Invalid (promise)');
        }
      })
      .catch(function(err) {
        console.log(err);
      });
    // Verify password synchronously => Invalid (sync)
    var valid = demo.verifyPasswordSync('bogusPassword');
    if (valid) {
      console.log('Valid (sync)');
    } else {
      console.log('Invalid (sync)');
    }
  }
});
// The password field is automatically encrypted when an instance is saved
// Use the static encryption method to return encrypted password values for
// other use. The values will be encrypted using the actual bcrypt settings
// assigned to the password field (see bcrypt rounds below)  
Demo.encryptPassword('anotherSecret', function(err, encryptedValue) {
  if (err) {
    console.log(err);
  } else {
    // Do something with encrypted data
    console.log('Encrypted password is ' + encryptedValue);
  }
});
// Using promises
Demo.encryptPassword('anotherSecret')
  .then(function(encryptedValue) {
    // Do something with encrypted data
    console.log('Encrypted password is ' + encryptedValue);
  })
  .catch(function(err) {
    console.log(err);
  });
});

Encrypting existing fields

To encrypt one or more existings fields or set additional schema options, add the bcrypt option to each schema type before loading the plugin. The module will simply attach to the existing fields and create encrypt and verify methods for each field using camelCasing. The following example encrypts fields password, secret and foo.bar.baz and creates instance methods encryptPassword, verifyPassword, verifyPasswordSync, verifySecret,verifySecretSync, verifyFooBarBaz and verifyFooBarBazSync, in addition to static methods encryptPassword, encryptSecret and encryptFooBarBaz.

var demoSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
  demoField: String,
  password: { type: String, required: true, bcrypt: true },
  secret: { type: String, bcrypt: true },
  foo: {
    bar: {
      baz: { type: String, bcrypt: true }
    }
  }
});
// Attach to predefined password and secret field
demoSchema.plugin(require('mongoose-bcrypt'));

Adding encrypted fields

Specify an array of field names when loading the plugin to add new encrypted fields to a schema. The module will attach to existing fields if already defined but create new encrypted fields otherwise. Encryption and verification methods will be added for each field as described above.

// Add 'secretA', 'secretB' and 'baz.bar.foo' fields
demoSchema.plugin(require('mongoose-bcrypt'), { 
  fields: ['secretA', 'secretB', 'baz.bar.foo'] 
});

Set bcrypt rounds

Rounds determine the complexity used for encryption with bcrypt-nodejs (see bcrypt-nodejs docs). To override the default, specificy the desired number of rounds when plugin is loaded.

// Use bcrypt with 8 rounds
demoSchema.plugin(require('mongoose-bcrypt'), { rounds: 8 });

Set bcrypt rounds per field

The default number of rounds is used for all encrypted fields unless a field specifies otherwise. The following example will encrypt secretA with 9 rounds, secretB with 6 rounds and both secretC and secretD with the default 5 rounds.

var demoSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
  demoField: String,
  secretA: { type: String, required: true, rounds: 9 },
  secretB: { type: String, bcrypt: true, rounds: 6 },
  secretC: { type: String, bcrypt: true },
  bested: {
    secret: { type: String, bcrypt: true, rounds: 6 },
  }
});
demoSchema.plugin(require('mongoose-bcrypt'), {
  fields: ['secretA', 'secretD'],
  rounds: 5
});

Update Queries

Mongoose-bcrypt will automatically encrypt the appropriate fields when a document is created or saved using the regular static and instance methods. With mongoose versions >= 4.1.3, the plugin also provides automatic encryption when updates are performed using update queries.

var newPwd = 'updatedPassword';
Demo.update({}, { password: newPwd }, 
  function(err) { 
    ... 
  });

Demo.update({}, { $set: { password: newPwd }}, 
  function(err) { 
    ... 
  });

Demo.findOneAndUpdate({ demoField: 'someValue' }, { password: newPwd }, 
  function(err) { 
    ... 
  });

Demo.findOneAndUpdate({ demoField: 'someValue' }, ( $set: { password: newPwd }},  
  function(err) { 
    ... 
  });

Upsert Query

When upserting you must use the $set operator for the field to be encrypted on the newly created document when no existing document is found.

Demo.findOneAndUpdate({ demoField: 'someValue' }, ( $set: { password: newPwd }}, { upsert: true },
  function(err) { 
    ... 
  });
