feat: Add password hash generation scripts

- Add simple hash-password script for quick hash generation
- Add interactive generate-password script with hidden input
- Include password validation and requirements display
- Add npm scripts for easy execution
- Create comprehensive PASSWORD_GENERATION.md guide
- Use existing bcrypt infrastructure with 12 salt rounds

Usage:
  npm run hash-password YourPassword123\!
  npm run generate-password (interactive)

This solves the issue where bcrypt command line tools
don't work properly for generating compatible hashes.

# Password Generation Guide for MinIO WebUI
## Quick Start
### Method 1: Simple Command (Recommended)
```bash
cd backend
npm run hash-password YourSecurePassword123!
```
This will output:
```
=== Generated Password Hash ===
ADMIN_PASSWORD_HASH=$2b$12$...your.hash.here...
Copy the above line to your .env file
```
### Method 2: Interactive Mode
```bash
cd backend
npm run generate-password
```
This will:
- Prompt you for a password (hidden input)
- Generate the bcrypt hash
- Show you the hash to copy to your .env file
- Verify the hash works correctly
## Docker Usage
If you're using Docker, you can run the password generator inside the container:
```bash
# Method 1: Quick hash
docker exec -it minio-webui-backend npm run hash-password YourPassword123!
# Method 2: Interactive
docker exec -it minio-webui-backend npm run generate-password
```
## Password Requirements
Your password should meet these criteria:
- Minimum 8 characters
- At least one uppercase letter (A-Z)
- At least one lowercase letter (a-z)
- At least one number (0-9)
- At least one special character (!@#$%^&* etc.)
## Example Passwords
Good passwords:
- `MySecure@Pass123`
- `Admin#2024!Strong`
- `MinIO$WebUI&Safe99`
## Step-by-Step Instructions
1. **Navigate to backend directory:**
```bash
cd backend
```
2. **Generate your password hash:**
```bash
npm run hash-password MyChosenPassword123!
```
3. **Copy the output** (it will look like this):
```
ADMIN_PASSWORD_HASH=$2b$12$abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz...
```
4. **Add to your .env file:**
```bash
# Edit your .env file
nano ../.env
# Or append directly
echo "ADMIN_PASSWORD_HASH=\$2b\$12\$your_hash_here" >> ../.env
```
5. **Restart the backend:**
```bash
# If using Docker
docker-compose restart backend
# If running locally
npm start
```
## Troubleshooting
### "bcrypt: command not found"
The script uses the Node.js bcrypt library, not the system bcrypt. Make sure you're in the backend directory and have run `npm install`.
### "Cannot find module 'bcrypt'"
Install dependencies first:
```bash
cd backend
npm install
```
### Hash not working
1. Make sure you copied the entire hash including the `$2b$12$` prefix
2. Check for any extra spaces or line breaks
3. Ensure the .env file is in the project root directory
4. Try generating a new hash
### Special characters in password
If your password contains special shell characters, wrap it in single quotes:
```bash
npm run hash-password 'My$uper!Pass@123'
```
## Security Notes
1. **Never commit your .env file** to version control
2. **Use strong passwords** - the hash is only as secure as your password
3. **Change default passwords** immediately in production
4. **Store .env securely** with appropriate file permissions:
```bash
chmod 600 .env
```
## Advanced Usage
### Custom Salt Rounds
The scripts use 12 salt rounds by default (recommended). If you need to change this, edit the script:
```javascript
const saltRounds = 12; // Change this value if needed
```
Higher numbers are more secure but slower to compute.
### Verify a Hash
To verify if a password matches a hash:
```javascript
// In Node.js
const bcrypt = require('bcrypt');
const isValid = await bcrypt.compare('YourPassword', '$2b$12$...');
console.log(isValid); // true or false
```
## Integration with MinIO WebUI
Once you've set the `ADMIN_PASSWORD_HASH` in your .env file:
1. Start/restart the application
2. Navigate to the login page
3. Username: `admin` (fixed)
4. Password: The password you used to generate the hash
The application will compare your entered password with the stored hash for authentication.
