go
hash, err := bcrypt.GenerateFromPassword([]byte(pw), bcrypt.DefaultCost)
go
import "github.com/sahilkhaire/gox/crypto"

crypto.CheckPassword(password, hash)

Example ​

go
import "github.com/sahilkhaire/gox/crypto"

crypto.CheckPassword(password, hash)

Import github.com/sahilkhaire/gox/crypto and call CheckPassword directly. See the comparison below for the standard library equivalent.
