Crate webgates_secrets 

webgates-secrets

Secret and hashing primitives for webgates applications.

This crate provides the building blocks used to hash secrets, verify them, and bind stored hashed values to account identifiers.

When to use this crate

Use webgates-secrets when you want:

• the Secret value object for stored hashed credentials
• the hashing module for hashing and verification primitives
• the hashing::argon2::Argon2Hasher implementation with secure presets
• structured secret and hashing error types

The crate is intentionally focused on the secret and hashing boundary. Storage and repository concerns live in sibling crates.

Quick start

use webgates_core::verification_result::VerificationResult;
use webgates_secrets::hashing::argon2::Argon2Hasher;
use webgates_secrets::hashing::hashing_service::HashingService;

let hasher = Argon2Hasher::new_recommended().unwrap();
let hashed = hasher.hash_value("user_password").unwrap();
let result = hasher.verify_value("user_password", &hashed).unwrap();

assert_eq!(result, VerificationResult::Ok);

Getting started on docs.rs

A good reading order is:

1. hashing::hashing_service::HashingService
2. hashing::argon2::Argon2Hasher
3. hashing::HashedValue
4. Secret
5. errors and hashing::errors
