# CKey

[CKey](https://gitlab.com/ufoot/ckey) is an experimental consistent hash key library, implemented in [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/).

See the [theory about consistent hashing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consistent_hashing).

This library provides 256-bit keys, with some helpers.
Internally, keys are stored on 4 unsigned integers of 64-bit each.

# Status

For now this is a toy project, clearly *NOT* suitable for production use.

[![Build Status](https://gitlab.com/ufoot/ckey/badges/main/pipeline.svg)](https://gitlab.com/ufoot/ckey/pipelines)

# Usage

```rust
use ckey::CKey;

let k1 = CKey::new_rand();
let k2 = k1.next();
print!("k1:{:?} k2:{:?}\n", k1, k2);
```
