# BCrypter
[](https://crates.io/crates/bcrypter) [](https://travis-ci.com/MitchellBerry/BCrypter) 
A pure rust implementation of the bcrypt hashing function based on the Blowfish cipher. Full API documentation can be found at
## Installation
Modify your Cargo.toml file:
```toml
[dependencies]
bcrypter = "0.1.0"
```
## Usage
#### Basic hash
```rust
extern crate bcrypter;
use bcrypter::password;
let pw = "hunter2".to_string();
let result = password(pw).hash().unwrap();
let bcrypt_hash_string = result.hash_string;
```
#### Custom cost
```rust
let result = password(pw)
.cost(6)
.hash()
.unwrap();
```
#### Custom salt
```rust
let salt = [0u8; 16];
let result = password(pw)
.salt(salt)
.cost(8)
.hash()
.unwrap();
```
#### Verify password
```rust
let known_hash = "$2a$04$7eAf8viXin8zazyvaU2HLuZGEbvaHy/lsnlG.HFWkBST5irHhXKJO".to_string();
let correct_password : bool = password(pw)
.verify(known_hash)
.unwrap()
```
#### Raw digest
```rust
let result = password(pw).hash().unwrap();
let digest_bytes : [u8: 24] = result.digest;
```
#### Notes
* The default cost is 12
* A random 16 byte array is used when no salt parameter is provided.
* The maximum password input is 72 bytes, anything over that will be truncated rather than raise an error. If you need larger inputs consider hashing it beforehand.
