@domusjs/security - Introduction

The DomusJS Security Module provides essential security primitives such as password hashing and rate limiting. It’s designed to be plug-and-play with extensibility in mind, so you can swap implementations while preserving a unified interface.

What Does the Security Module Provide

Section titled “What Does the Security Module Provide”
  • Hashing Service: Built on top of a Hasher interface. The default implementation uses bcrypt.
  • Rate Limiter: Abstracts rate-limiting logic. Includes:
    • ✅ In-memory implementation for local environments.
    • ✅ Redis-based implementation for distributed rate limiting.
  • Express Middleware: Plug-and-play rate limiting with Express apps using the provided rateLimitMiddleware.

Flexible & Extensible

Section titled “Flexible & Extensible”

You can easily provide your own implementations for Hasher or RateLimiter by registering them via the DI container or inside your own registerSecurityModule() setup.
