dotnet --version

Clone repository and run totp or hotp command:

git clone https://github.com/AndreyRusyaev/simpleauthenticator
cd simpleauthenticator
dotnet run totp -s "<your base32 encoded secret key>"

Output:

Token: 123456 (valid for 25 seconds).

Prerequisites

Usage

Description:
  Generates one time passwords (HOTP and TOTP tokens).

Usage:
  simpleauthenticator [command] [options]

Options:
  --version       Show version information
  -?, -h, --help  Show help and usage information

Commands:
  totp  Generates time based one time password (TOTP token, RFC 6238).
  hotp  Generates hmac based one time password (HOTP token, RFC 4226).

totp Command Options:
  -s, --secretkey, --secretkey-base32 <secretkey-base32>  Base32 encoded secret key (whitespaces allowed). Example:
                                                          'A5YS 2UP6 K4UF 46GD'.
  -s64, --secretkey-base64 <secretkey-base64>             Base64 encoded secret key (whitespaces allowed). Example:
                                                          'B3Et Uf5X KF54 ww=='.
  --token-length <token-length>                           Token length. Default: 6.

hotp Command Options:
  -s, --secretkey, --secretkey-base32 <secretkey-base32>  Base32 encoded secret key (whitespaces allowed). Example:
                                                          'A5YS 2UP6 K4UF 46GD'.
  -s64, --secretkey-base64 <secretkey-base64>             Base64 encoded secret key (whitespaces allowed, '=' can be omited). Example:
                                                          'B3Et Uf5X KF54 ww=='.
  -c, --counter <counter> (REQUIRED)                      8-byte counter value, the moving factor.  This counter
                                                          MUST be synchronized between the HOTP generator (client)
                                                          and the HOTP validator (server).
  --token-length <token-length>                           Token length. Default: 6.

Examples

TOTP: Generate time-based one time password

cd simpleauthenticator
dotnet run totp --secretkey-base64 "B3Et Uf5X KF54 ww=="

Output:

Token: 316788 (valid for 25 seconds).

HOTP: Generate HMAC-based one time password

git clone https://github.com/AndreyRusyaev/simpleauthenticator
