Signing Helpers

Cryptographically sign and verify data using HMAC-SHA256.

Signing is faster than encryption but users can view the original data.

import { getSignedValue, sign, unsign } from '@orpc/server/helpers'

const secret = 'your-secret-key'
const userData = 'user123'

const signedValue = await sign(userData, secret)
// 'user123.oneQsU0r5dvwQFHFEjjV1uOI_IR3gZfkYHij3TRauVA'
// ↑ Original data is visible to users

const verifiedValue = await unsign(signedValue, secret) // 'user123'

// Extract value without verification
const extractedValue = getSignedValue(signedValue) // 'user123'

unsign and getSignedValue accept undefined/null and return undefined for invalid inputs.
