Node.js

const OTPAuth = require('otpauth');

// Generate a random secret
let randomTOTP = new OTPAuth.TOTP();

// Specify a custom secret
let customTOTP = new OTPAuth.TOTP({
	'issuer': 'ACME',
	'label': 'AzureDiamond',
	'algorithm': 'SHA512',
	'digits': 8,
	'period': 20,
	'secret': new OTPAuth.Secret({
		'buffer': OTPAuth.Utils.b32.encode('NB2W45DFOIZA')
	})
});

// Convert to Google Authenticator key URI
console.log(customTOTP.toString());

// Generate token
console.log(customTOTP.generate());

Browser

<script src="otpauth.js"></script>
<script>
	var randomTOTP = new OTPAuth.TOTP();

	// Same as above...
</script>

Supported hashing algorithms

In Node.js, the same algorithms as Crypto.createHmac function are supported, since it is used internally. In browsers, the SHA1, SHA256 and SHA512 algorithms are supported by using the Stanford Javascript Crypto Library.
