Login doesn't work

I can't get the login to work. It seems that the password gets encrypted, but not decrypted. See session info below:

Thanks for reaching out!

I've just checked the sample app and it seems to work fine with the following credentials: test:123. Could you maybe clarify how do you run it?

Cheers,

Thanks for your reply. My mistake, I didn't read the readme file. I used the encrypted password in the login, because I thought it was the decrypted password in the script. How do I easily get the encrypted password? I can of just print it out, but can I use the javascript function directly in the r-console?

This can be achieved with R package V8 like so:

library(V8)
ct <- v8()
ct$source("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aoles/shinypass/master/www/md5.js")
ct$eval("md5('123')")

There is also a number of alternative ways to generate the MD5 hashes as mentioned in the comments to the original GIST:

• in terminal echo -n 123 | md5sum (on Mac replace md5sum with md5)

• in R

  library(digest)
  digest('123',  serialize = FALSE)

• in JS console when the app is running

  md5("123")

• or simply using an online hash generator, such as
