Struct blake3::Hash

source ·
pub struct Hash(_);
Expand description

An output of the default size, 32 bytes, which provides constant-time equality checking.

Hash implements From and Into for [u8; 32], and it provides an explicit as_bytes method returning &[u8; 32]. However, byte arrays and slices don’t provide constant-time equality checking, which is often a security requirement in software that handles private data. Hash doesn’t implement Deref or AsRef, to avoid situations where a type conversion happens implicitly and the constant-time property is accidentally lost.

Hash provides the to_hex and from_hex methods for converting to and from hexadecimal. It also implements Display and FromStr.

Implementations§

The raw bytes of the Hash. Note that byte arrays don’t provide constant-time equality checking, so if you need to compare hashes, prefer the Hash type.

Encode a Hash in lowercase hexadecimal.

The returned ArrayString is a fixed size and doesn’t allocate memory on the heap. Note that ArrayString doesn’t provide constant-time equality checking, so if you need to compare hashes, prefer the Hash type.

Decode a Hash from hexadecimal. Both uppercase and lowercase ASCII bytes are supported.

Any byte outside the ranges '0'...'9', 'a'...'f', and 'A'...'F' results in an error. An input length other than 64 also results in an error.

Note that Hash also implements FromStr, so Hash::from_hex("...") is equivalent to "...".parse().
