`window.crypto.getRandomValues` with fallback to Node.js crypto

Package Exports

  • get-random-values

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (get-random-values) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

get-random-values

window.crypto.getRandomValues or window.msCrypto.getRandomValues or require('crypto').randomBytes or an Error.

Example

var getRandomValues = require('get-random-values');

var array = new Uint32Array(10);
getRandomValues(array);
// => [
// =>   183,
// =>   76,
// =>   18,
// =>   177,
// =>   73,
// =>   9,
// =>   50,
// =>   248,
// =>   216,
// =>   104
// => ]

Installation

$ npm install get-random-values

API

var getRandomValues = require('get-random-values');

getRandomValues(buf)

Fills integer-based TypedArray buf with cryptographically random numbers. Checks for and uses the first of the following:

  • window.crypto.getRandomValues
  • window.msCrypto.getRandomValues
  • Node.js crypto

If none of the above are available, then an Error is thrown.

Throws QuotaExceededError if buf.length > 65536 (even if Node.js crypto, which doesn't have that limit, is being used).

buf must be a Uint8Array if Node.js crypto is used, otherwise a TypeError will be thrown.
