Prebuilt node kerberus native binding written by pure rust. It is based on node-krb5 (huge thx for @gboutry π), but you don't need to compile the library. node-rs-krb5 uses napi-rs, which is a Rust based framework for building pre-compiled Node.js addons. We are supporting all the main platforms (mac, linux, windows) and CPU architectures (arm64, x64).
- π·ββοΈ Prebuilt for all the main platforms (Mac, Linux, Windows)
- π€ You don't need to intstall python, xcode or visual studio compile chain
- π TypeScript type defininition support
- π Bring native performance for Node.js
- π¦Ί Memory safe, guaranteed by Rust compiler
- π³ Similar API than krb5 node package
yarn add node-rs-krb5
npm install -S node-rs-krb5
node18 | node20 | node21 | |
---|---|---|---|
Windows x64 | β | β | β |
macOS x64 | β | β | β |
macOS arm64 (m chips) | β | β | β |
Linux x64 gnu | β | β | β |
Feel free to create an issue if you need other CPU architecture support. π₯° Initially, I only added the basics.
You need to install the MIT Kerberos library.
-
Mac
brew install krb5
-
Linux
pacman -S krb5 yum install -y krb5-libs apt-get install libkrb5-3
-
Windows
choco install mitkerberos
