Toot

Thanks to all who have tried out Argon2id https://github.com/mudge/argon2id so far.

In its first week after launch: I’ve pushed 104 versions of the gem to RubyGems (that’s including each individual platform’s gem), I added JRuby and TruffleRuby support (still without any new runtime dependencies), it has been downloaded over 10,000 times, and it was featured in Ruby Weekly https://rubyweekly.com/issues/726

Next job is to figure out the safest way for people to upgrade their hashing functions in existing apps…

@mudge I already use Argon via argon2 gem. Would you try to convince me to switch to yours? ;)

@katafrakt to be honest, if you're already happy with the Ruby argon2 gem and are already compiling its extension without issue, there's little reason to switch. I wanted to make a version that doesn't require compilation or any runtime dependencies in the majority of cases and has a small, opinionated API based on the precedent set by bcrypt-ruby (i.e. Argon2id::Password.create("password") for hashing and Argon2id::Password.new("$argon2id$...").is_password?("password") for verification).

@mudge got it, it makes sense. I will certainly consider your gem for any new project, but indeed probably I won't change it in existing ones.
