symcrypt 0.5.1

# SymCrypt Rust Wrapper


This crate provides friendly and idiomatic Rust wrappers over [SymCrypt](https://github.com/microsoft/SymCrypt), an open-source cryptographic library.

This crate has a dependency on `symcrypt-sys`, which utilizes `bindgen` to create Rust/C FFI bindings.

**`symcrypt` version `0.5.1` is based off of `SymCrypt v103.4.2`.**. You must use a version that is greater than or equal to `SymCrypt v103.4.2`. 

To view a detailed list of changes please see the [releases page](https://github.com/microsoft/rust-symcrypt/releases/).

## Supported APIs


Hashing:
- Md5 ( stateful/stateless )
- Sha1 ( stateful/stateless )
- Sha256 ( stateful/stateless )
- Sha384 ( stateful/stateless )
- Sha512 ( stateful/stateless )
- Sha3_256 ( stateful/stateless )
- Sha3_384 ( stateful/stateless )
- Sha3_512 ( stateful/stateless )

HMAC:
- HmacMd5 ( stateful/stateless )
- HmacSha1 ( stateful/stateless )
- HmacSha256 ( stateful/stateless )
- HmacSha384 ( stateful/stateless )
- HmacSha512 ( stateful/stateless )

HKDF:
- HmacMd5
- HmacSha1
- HmacSha256
- HmacSha384
- HmacSha512

Encryption: 
- AES-GCM Encrypt/Decrypt
- ChaCha20-Poly1305 Encrypt/Decrypt
- AES-CBC Encrypt/Decrypt

ECC:
- ECDH Secret Agreement ( NistP256, NistP384, NistP521, Curve25519)
- ECDSA Sign / Verify ( NistP256, NistP384, NistP521 )

RSA: 
- PKCS1 ( Sign, Verify, Encrypt, Decrypt )
- PSS ( Sign, Verify )
- OAEP ( Encrypt, Decrypt )

**Note**: `Md5` and `Sha1`, and `PKCS1 Encrypt/Decrypt` are considered weak crypto, and are only added for interop purposes.
To enable either `Md5` or `Sha1`, or `Pkcs1 Encrypt/Decrypt` pass the `md5` or `sha1` or `pkcs1-encrypt-decrypt` flag into your `Cargo.toml`.

## Quick Start Guide


`symcrypt` requires the `SymCrypt` library to be present at both build time and run time.

### Windows:

Download the latest `symcrypt.dll` and `symcrypt.lib` for your corresponding CPU architecture from the [SymCrypt Releases Page](https://github.com/microsoft/SymCrypt/releases) and place them somewhere accessible on your machine.

Set the required `SYMCRYPT_LIB_PATH` environment variable. You can do this by using the following command:

`setx SYMCRYPT_LIB_PATH "<your-path-to-symcrypt-lib-folder>"`

You will need to restart `terminal` / `cmd` after setting the environment variable.

For more information please see the `INSTALL.md` file on the [`rust-symcrypt`](https://github.com/microsoft/rust-symcrypt/tree/main/rust-symcrypt) page.

### Linux:


#### Azure Linux 3:

SymCrypt is pre-installed on Azure Linux 3 machines. Please ensure that you have the most up to date version of SymCrypt by updating via `tdnf`.


#### Other distros:


For Ubuntu, you can install SymCrypt via package manager by connecting to PMC. 

1. [Connect to PMC](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/linux/packages)
2. `sudo apt-get install symcrypt`

Alternatively, you can manually install the lib files: 

Download the latest `libsymcrypt.so*` files for your corresponding CPU architecture from the [SymCrypt Releases Page](https://github.com/microsoft/SymCrypt/releases) and place them in your machines `$LD_LIBRARY_PATH`.

For more information please see the `INSTALL.md` file on the [`rust-symcrypt`](https://github.com/microsoft/rust-symcrypt/tree/main/rust-symcrypt) page

**Note:** This path may be different depending on your flavour of Linux, and architecture. The goal is to place the `libsymcrypt.so*` files in a location where the your Linux distro can find the required libs at build/run time.

## Usage

There are unit tests attached to each file that show how to use each function. Included is some sample code to do a stateless Sha256 hash. 

**Note:** This code snippet also uses the [hex](https://crates.io/crates/hex) crate.

### Instructions:  


add symcrypt to your `Cargo.toml` file.

```cargo
[dependencies]
symcrypt = "0.5.1"
hex = "0.4.3"
```

include symcrypt in your code  

```rust
use symcrypt::hash::sha256; 
use hex;

let data = hex::decode("641ec2cf711e").unwrap();
let expected: &str = "cfdbd6c9acf9842ce04e8e6a0421838f858559cf22d2ea8a38bd07d5e4692233";

let result = sha256(&data);
assert_eq!(hex::encode(result), expected);
```
