get-token should probably return strings, not ints about one-time HOT 2 CLOSED

thanks for the reply, i guess the user interface for these codes made me think this lib was missing something, but instead its the interfaces that have added things.

Regarding the string vs. integer, I'd like to direct you to the specification (url included in the function description), section 5.3 if you're really in a hurry. https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4226#section-5.3

On the following concerns you've raised

so, I have to do some work to present this to the user (authenticator apps will pad with leading 0s)

also i have to do work to take what my form gives me, and turn that into an int.

YES, your application is going to be responsible for the presentation and parsing of the tokens. This library tries it's best to not have strict opinions on how application layer decisions should be made.

I'm hoping that clarifies. I'll close this issue for now, but please feel free to continue the conversation.
Cheers.
