#
# Description: This bash script generates alphanumeric passphrases
# with a char-count determined by a user-provided number of bits of
# entropy. The passphrase is then outputted to stdout with a trailing
# newline. It works as follows:
# 
#   - Prompt user for an integer. This integer is the number of bits
#     of entropy that the generated password should have.
#
#   - Check if user-provided string is an integer using `bash` regular
#     expression test.
#
#   - Calculate the minimum number of bech32 base32 characters
#     required to encode the specified number of bits of entropy.
#
#       - This step uses `bc` to calculate a logarithm float string
#         and `awk` to convert the float into an integer, rounding up.
#
#   - Use `tr`, `/dev/urandom`, and `head` to generate a random
#     alphanumeric string with the length calculated in the previous
#     step.
#
#   - Use `echo` to display the passphrase in stdout with a trailing
#     newline.
#
# Usage: bknpass [int]
#
# Example: bknpass 256
#
# Dependencies: bash, echo, bc, awk, tr, head. See end of file
#
# Tested on:
#
#   - GNU/Linux Debian 10


#==Initialization==

let ALPHABET_SIZE="32" # number of unique chars in bech32 base32 charset
LOG_BASE=2 # Set logarithm base to 2

# Define `echoerr` function which outputs text to stderr
    # Note: function copied from https://stackoverflow.com/a/2990533
function echoerr {
    echo "$@" 1>&2;
}

# Define `rpass` function which generates a base32 passphrase of length $1 (ex: `rpass 20` generates a 20-char string)
#   Note: function adapted from https://www.thegeekstuff.com/2010/04/unix-bash-function-examples/
#   Note: base32 charset uses bech32 charset
function rpass {
    cat /dev/urandom | LC_ALL=C tr -cd "qpzry9x8gf2tvdw0s3jn54khce6mua7l" | head -c ${1:-22}
}


#==Main Program==

# Define $ENTROPY_BIT_COUNT1 as argument $1 or prompt user if $1 is not defined.
#     Note: argument test adapted from https://stackoverflow.com/a/6482403
if [ -z "$1" ]
then
    echo "Entropy bit count argument (\$1) not supplied."
    # Get from user the number of bits of entropy.
    echoerr -n "Please specify the required strength of the password in bits of entropy (ex: 256):" # prompt via stderr
    read ENTROPY_BIT_COUNT1
else
    ENTROPY_BIT_COUNT1="$1"
fi

# Check if $ENTROPY_BIT_COUNT1 is an non-negative integer
#     Note: Regular expression test is adapted from https://stackoverflow.com/a/806923
RETEST1='^[0-9]+$'
if ! [[ $ENTROPY_BIT_COUNT1 =~ $RETEST1 ]] ; then
   echo "error: Not an integer." >&2; exit 1    
fi

# Calculate minimum count of chars needed to encode $ENTROPY_BIT_COUNT1 with alphabet size of $ALPHABET_SIZE as float
#     Solve ln(a^n)/ln(2)=b for n using `bc` where
#       a=$ALPHABET_SIZE
#       n=$CHAR_COUNT1_FLOAT
#       b=$ENTROPY_BIT_COUNT1
#     Note: `bc` logarithm usage adapted from http://phodd.net/gnu-bc/bcfaq.html#bashlog
CHAR_COUNT1_FLOAT=$(echo "$ENTROPY_BIT_COUNT1*l($LOG_BASE)/l($ALPHABET_SIZE)" | bc -l)
#     Note: Float will be of form "21.49744370650136860806".
#     Note: This particular example float should be rounded to "22" later.

# Round $CHAR_COUNT1_FLOAT1 up to next highest integer for use as argument in later bash functions.
#     Note: awk expression from https://bits.mdminhazulhaque.io/linux/round-number-in-bash-script.html
CHAR_COUNT1=$(echo "$CHAR_COUNT1_FLOAT" | awk '{print ($0-int($0)>0)?int($0)+1:int($0)}') 

# Generate passphrase
PASS1=$(rpass "$CHAR_COUNT1")
echo -e "$PASS1"
