devise-scrypt

A devise-encryptable password encryptor that uses SCrypt

Usage

Assuming you have devise and the devise-encryptable plugin set up in your application, add devise-scrypt to your Gemfile and bundle:

gem 'devise-scrypt'

Then open up your devise configuration, which supposedly lives at config/initializers/devise.rb and configure your encryptor to be scrypt:

# config/initializers/devise.rb
Devise.setup do |config|
  # ..
  config.encryptor = :scrypt
  # ...
end

It is also recommended to uncomment (or add) config.pepper with a random string that will be used in addition to the per-user password_salt when hashing.

Configuring algorithm complexity

The config.stretches option does not affect the calculation complexity. Instead, please adjust the scrypt defaults to your liking. Please note that in the test environment you will probably want to reduce complexity if you find your test suite slows down significantly. Please refer to the SCrypt gem documentation about SCrypt config options and their effect.

# Example config:
SCrypt::Engine::DEFAULTS[:key_len] = 64
SCrypt::Engine::DEFAULTS[:salt_size] = 32

Compatibility

The test suite passes against MRI 1.8.7, 1.9.2, 1.9.3, REE, and Rubinius in both 1.8 and 1.9 modes.

JRuby is not supported because the SCrypt gem is a C extension and therefore is incompatible with it.
