Usage

import com.amdelamar.jotp.OTP;
import com.amdelamar.jotp.type.Type;

// Random secret Base32 with 20 bytes (160 bits) length
// (Use this to setup 2FA for new accounts).
String secret = OTP.randomBase32(20);
// Returns: IM4ZL3G5Q66KW4U7PMOQVXQQH3NGOCHQ

// Generate a Time-based OTP from the secret, using Unix-time
// rounded down to the nearest 30 seconds.
String hexTime = OTP.timeInHex(System.currentTimeMillis());
String code = OTP.create(secret, hexTime, 6, Type.TOTP);

Show User QR Code1
First generate the otpUrl.

// Generate otpauth URL
String otpUrl = OTP.getURL(secret, 6, Type.TOTP, "Example", "[email protected]");
// Returns: "otpauth://totp/Example:[email protected]?secret=IM4ZL3G5Q66KW4U7PMOQVXQQH3NGOCHQ&issuer=Example&algorithm=SHA1&digits=6&period=30";

Then use a service like quickchart.io and paste the otpUrl for the "text" parameter: https://quickchart.io/qr?size=200&text=$otpUrl

Alternatively, instead of a web service you can use a Java library like nayuki/QR-Code-generator.

After user scans the image with their mobile app...

// Get User's input code for a login...
String userEnteredCode = "123456";

// Verify OTP
if (OTP.verify(secret, userEnteredCode, 6, Type.TOTP)) {
    // Code valid. Login successful.
}

Details

This code currently supports the standard HMAC-based or Time-based algorithms. for one-time passwords.

It was started as an easy way to enable 2-Factor Authentication for Java based web applications, but it can be applied to other Java applications as well.
