Struct Salt 

pub struct Salt(/* private fields */);

A cryptographically secure random salt used for key derivation. It is used to ensure that the derived keys are unique even if the input key material is the same.

Implementations

impl Salt

pub fn generate() -> Salt

Uses CSPRNG (safe) to generate a salt.

Trait Implementations

impl AsRef<[u8; 16]> for Salt

fn as_ref(&self) -> &[u8; 16]

Converts this type into a shared reference of the (usually inferred) input type.

impl Clone for Salt

fn clone(&self) -> Salt

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Salt

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result<(), Error>

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Deref for Salt

type Target = [u8; 16]

The resulting type after dereferencing.

fn deref(&self) -> &<Salt as Deref>::Target

Dereferences the value.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for Salt

fn deserialize<__D>( __deserializer: __D, ) -> Result<Salt, <__D as Deserializer<'de>>::Error>

where __D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl Drop for Salt

fn drop(&mut self)

Executes the destructor for this type.

fn pin_drop(self: Pin<&mut Self>)

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (pin_ergonomics)

Execute the destructor for this type, but different to Drop::drop, it requires self to be pinned.

impl Eq for Salt

impl From<[u8; 16]> for Salt

fn from(value: [u8; 16]) -> Salt

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl HasSample for Salt

fn sample() -> Salt

Returns a sample instance of the type.

fn sample_other() -> Salt

impl Hash for Salt

fn hash<__H>(&self, state: &mut __H)

where __H: Hasher,

Feeds this value into the given Hasher.

fn hash_slice<H>(data: &[Self], state: &mut H)

where H: Hasher, Self: Sized,

Feeds a slice of this type into the given Hasher.

impl PartialEq for Salt

fn eq(&self, other: &Salt) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl Serialize for Salt

fn serialize<__S>( &self, __serializer: __S, ) -> Result<<__S as Serializer>::Ok, <__S as Serializer>::Error>

where __S: Serializer,

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.

impl StructuralPartialEq for Salt

impl Zeroize for Salt

fn zeroize(&mut self)

Zero out this object from memory using Rust intrinsics which ensure the zeroization operation is not “optimized away” by the compiler.
