> Not recommended for production use yet.

High-performance Rust implementation of [ISO 24138:2024](https://www.iso.org/standard/77899.html) --
International Standard Content Code (ISCC).

## What is ISCC

The ISCC is a similarity-preserving fingerprint and identifier for digital media assets. ISCCs are
generated algorithmically from digital content, just like cryptographic hashes. However, instead of
using a single cryptographic hash function to identify data only, the ISCC uses various algorithms
to create a composite identifier that exhibits similarity-preserving properties (soft hash).

## Installation

```bash
cargo add iscc-lib
```

## Quick Start

```rust
use iscc_lib::gen_meta_code_v0;

let result = gen_meta_code_v0("ISCC Test Document!", None, None, 64).unwrap();
println!("Meta-Code: {}", result.iscc);
```

| `gen_meta_code_v0`     | Generate a Meta-Code from metadata fields    |
| `gen_text_code_v0`     | Generate a Text-Code from plain text         |
| `gen_image_code_v0`    | Generate an Image-Code from pixel data       |
| `gen_audio_code_v0`    | Generate an Audio-Code from Chromaprint data |
| `gen_video_code_v0`    | Generate a Video-Code from frame signatures  |
| `gen_mixed_code_v0`    | Generate a Mixed-Code from Content-Codes     |
| `gen_data_code_v0`     | Generate a Data-Code from raw bytes          |
| `gen_instance_code_v0` | Generate an Instance-Code from raw bytes     |
| `gen_iscc_code_v0`     | Generate a composite ISCC-CODE               |

### Utilities

- **Text processing:** `text_clean`, `text_remove_newlines`, `text_trim`, `text_collapse`
- **Algorithm primitives:** `alg_simhash`, `alg_minhash_256`, `alg_cdc_chunks`, `sliding_window`
