This is really interesting @bwbroersma. Thanks for sharing!

If you'd like you could add this to our docs in the form of a how-to guide(more info about that here).

There was a small 'bug': prefix zero's since it returned an integer.

Here is a full htop/totp implementation with the support for other hash functions.

CREATE EXTENSION pgcrypto;
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION hotp(key BYTEA, c INT, digits INT DEFAULT 6, hash TEXT DEFAULT 'sha1') RETURNS TEXT AS $$
DECLARE
    c BYTEA := '\x' || LPAD(TO_HEX(c), 16, '0');
    mac BYTEA := HMAC(c, key, hash);
    trunc_offset INT := GET_BYTE(mac, length(mac) - 1) % 16;
    result TEXT := SUBSTRING(SET_BIT(SUBSTRING(mac FROM 1 + trunc_offset FOR 4), 7, 0)::TEXT, 2)::BIT(32)::INT % (10 ^ digits)::INT;
BEGIN
    RETURN LPAD(result, digits, '0');
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql IMMUTABLE LEAKPROOF STRICT PARALLEL SAFE;


CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION totp(key BYTEA, clock_offset INT DEFAULT 0, digits INT DEFAULT 6, hash TEXT DEFAULT 'sha1') RETURNS TEXT AS $$
DECLARE
    c INT := FLOOR(EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM NOW()) / 30)::INT + clock_offset;
BEGIN
    RETURN hotp(key, c, digits, hash);
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql STABLE LEAKPROOF STRICT PARALLEL SAFE;


CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION otp_generate_secret(hash TEXT DEFAULT 'sha1') RETURNS BYTEA AS $$
BEGIN
    -- See https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4868#section-2.1.2
    -- The optimal key length for HMAC is the block size of the algorithm
    CASE
          WHEN hash = 'sha1'   THEN RETURN gen_random_bytes(20); -- = 160 bits
          WHEN hash = 'sha256' THEN RETURN gen_random_bytes(32); -- = 256 bits
          WHEN hash = 'sha512' THEN RETURN gen_random_bytes(64); -- = 512 bits
          ELSE

            RETURN NULL;

this is pretty cool! since authy and google authenticator use base32, do you by chance know a simple way to do the base32 decode in plpgsql?

I modified this to expose a few parameters, and also the base32 encode https://gist.github.com/pyramation/15e2b531ea973fccd0011ce334030adc

CREATE FUNCTION totp.generate ( secret text, period int DEFAULT 30, digits int DEFAULT 6, time_from timestamptz DEFAULT now(), hash text DEFAULT 'sha1', encoding text DEFAULT 'base32', clock_offset int DEFAULT 0 ) RETURNS text AS $EOFCODE$
DECLARE
    c INT := FLOOR(EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM time_from) / period)::INT + clock_offset;
    key bytea;
BEGIN

  IF (encoding = 'base32') THEN 
    key = ( '\x' || totp.base32_to_hex(secret) )::bytea;
  ELSE 
    key = secret::bytea;
  END IF;

  RETURN totp.hotp(key, c, digits, hash);
END;
$EOFCODE$ LANGUAGE plpgsql STABLE;

@bwbroersma as you can see, my base32 is probably not as efficient as it could be, which is why I was wondering if there is a better way to implement base32. Currently the base32 does work if you'd like to use it! But it's more functional string parsing instead of bit shifting which would be better.
