 # Generating bcrypt-hashed password
 
-Since version 14 of wg-easy, a password hashed with bcrypt is needed instead of the plain-text password string. This doc explains how to generate the hash based on a plain-text password.

 ## Using Docker + node
 
-The easiest way to generate a bcrypt password hash with wgpw is using docker and node:
+- You are using docker compose
 
-```sh
-docker run ghcr.io/wg-easy/wg-easy:14 node -e 'const bcrypt = require("bcryptjs"); const hash = bcrypt.hashSync("YOUR_PASSWORD", 10); console.log(hash.replace(/\$/g, "$$$$"));'
