OneTrickPony

License Maven Central JavaDoc Java

OneTrickPony is a modern Java library that implements support for One-Time Passwords (OTPs). The library requires Java 11 or later and is fully compatible with Java's module system. It has zero runtime dependencies on external libraries. Built-In support is provided for the HOTP (RFC 4226) and TOTP (RFC 6238) algorithms.

Getting Started

OneTrickPony provides support for OTPs via so-called engines. The following engines are provided by the library.

HMAC-based One-Time Passwords (HOTPs)

The HOTPEngine provides support for HOTPs as specified by RFC 4226.

HOTPEngine engine = HOTPEngine.builder()
    .withChecksum(false)
    .withCodeDigits(6)
    .withMacAlgorithm("HmacSHA1")
    .withTruncationOffset(HOTPEngine.USE_DYNAMIC_TRUNCATION)
    .build();

byte[] secret = "12345678901234567890".getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
int counter = 0;

String otp = engine.generate(secret, counter);
System.out.println(otp); // 755224

The engine's properties can be configured through a builder. All properties are initialized with reasonable defaults that are sufficient for most use-cases.

Property Default
Checksum Whether to add an additional checksum digit to the OTP false
Code digits The number of code digits of the OTP 6
MAC algorithm The MAC algorithm to use to generate the hash for the OTP HmacSHA1
Truncation offset The offset that will be used to extract the bytes used for the OTP from the generated hash USE_DYNAMIC_TRUNCATION

The MAC algorithm is used to retrieve a javax.crypto.Mac instance. Check the documentation of your Java distribution for a list of supported algorithms.

Time-based One-Time Passwords (TOTPs)

The TOTPEngine provides support for TOTPs as specified by RFC 6238.

TOTPEngine engine = TOTPEngine.builder()
    .configureHOTPEngine(hotpBuilder -> {
        // Use the builder to configure the underlying HOTPEngine
    })
    .withTimeStep(Duration.ofSeconds(30))
    .build();

byte[] secret = "12345678901234567890".getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
Instant time = Instant.parse("1970-01-01T00:00:59.00Z");

String otp = engine.generate(secret, time);
System.out.println(otp); // 287082

This engine uses an underlying HOTPEngine to generate the OTP. Both, the engine itself and the underlying engine can be configured through a builder.

The engine has a single additional property to configure the time step for the generated OTPs. It defaults to a time step of 30 seconds.

Bonus: The Base32 Encoding Scheme

As secrets for OTPs are commonly shared using the Base32 encoding scheme, OneTrickPony also provides a Base32 class analogous to Java's java.util.Base64 class. This class implements support for Base32 en- and decoding as specified by RFC 6238.

// Retrieve reusable en- and decoder instances
Base32.Encoder encoder = Base32.getEncoder();
Base32.Decoder decoder = Base32.getDecoder();

// Encoding
byte[] base32Data = encoder.encode("foobar".getBytes(StandardCharset.UTF_8));
System.out.println(new String(base32Data, StandardCharsets.UTF_8)); // MZXW6YTBOI======

// Decoding
byte[] decodedData = decoder.decode(base32Data);
System.out.println(new String(decodedData, StandardCharsets.UTF_8)); // foobar

Building from source

Setup

This project uses Gradle's toolchain support to detect and select the JDKs required to run the build. Please refer to the build scripts to find out which toolchains are requested.

An installed JDK 1.8 (or later) is required to use Gradle.

Building

Once the setup is complete, invoke the respective Gradle tasks using the following command on Unix/macOS:

./gradlew <tasks>

or the following command on Windows:

gradlew <tasks>

Important Gradle tasks to remember are:

  • clean - clean build results
  • build - assemble and test the Java library
  • publishToMavenLocal - build and install all public artifacts to the local maven repository

Additionally tasks may be used to print a list of all available tasks.
