Crate rattler_digest 

A module that provides utility functions for computing hashes using the RustCrypto/hashes library.

This module provides several functions that wrap around the hashing algorithms provided by the RustCrypto library. These functions allow you to easily compute the hash of a file, or a stream of bytes using a variety of hashing algorithms.

By utilizing the Digest trait, any hashing algorithm that implements that trait can be used with the functions provided in this crate.

Examples

use rattler_digest::{compute_bytes_digest, compute_file_digest};
use sha2::Sha256;
use md5::Md5;

// Compute the MD5 hash of a string
let md5_result = compute_bytes_digest::<Md5>("Hello, world!");
println!("MD5 hash: {:x}", md5_result);

// Compute the SHA256 hash of a file
let sha256_result = compute_file_digest::<Sha256>("somefile.txt").unwrap();
println!("SHA256 hash: {:x}", sha256_result);

Available functions

• compute_file_digest: Computes the hash of a file on disk.
• parse_digest_from_hex: Given a hex representation of a digest, parses it to bytes.
• HashingWriter: An object that wraps a writable object and implements Write and ::tokio::io::AsyncWrite. It forwards the data to the wrapped object but also computes the hash of the content on the fly.

For more information on the hashing algorithms provided by the RustCrypto/hashes library, see the documentation for that library.

Re-exports

pub use digest;

Modules

serde

Provides custom serialization/deserialization functions for Output of a Digest.

Structs

HashingReader

A simple object that provides a Read implementation that also immediately hashes the bytes read from it. Call HashingReader::finalize to retrieve both the original impl Read object as well as the hash.

HashingWriter

A simple object that provides a Write implementation that also immediately hashes the bytes written to it. Call HashingWriter::finalize to retrieve both the original impl Write object as well as the hash.

Functions

compute_bytes_digest

Compute a hash of the specified bytes.

compute_file_digest

Compute a hash of the file at the specified location.

compute_url_digest

Compute a hash of the specified Url without basic auth.

parse_digest_from_hex

Parses a hash hex string to a digest.
