Crate digest

Crate digest 

Source
Expand description

This crate provides traits which describe functionality of cryptographic hash functions and Message Authentication algorithms.

Traits in this repository are organized into the following levels:

  • High-level convenience traits: Digest, DynDigest, Mac. Wrappers around lower-level traits for most common use-cases. Users should usually prefer using these traits.
  • Mid-level traits: Update, FixedOutput, FixedOutputReset, ExtendableOutput, ExtendableOutputReset, XofReader, Reset, KeyInit, and InnerInit. These traits atomically describe available functionality of an algorithm.
  • Marker traits: HashMarker, MacMarker. Used to distinguish different algorithm classes.
  • Low-level traits defined in the block_api module. These traits operate at a block-level and do not contain any built-in buffering. They are intended to be implemented by low-level algorithm providers only. Usually they should not be used in application-level code.

Additionally hash functions implement traits from the standard library: Default and Clone.

This crate does not provide any implementations of the io::Read/Write traits, see the digest-io crate for std::io-compatibility wrappers.

Modules§

block_api
Low-level traits operating on blocks and wrappers around them.
consts

Macros§

buffer_ct_variable
Creates a buffered wrapper around block-level “core” type which implements variable output size traits with output size selected at compile time.
buffer_fixed
Creates a buffered wrapper around block-level “core” type which implements fixed output size traits.
buffer_xof
Creates a buffered wrapper around block-level “core” type which implements extendable output size traits.

Structs§

CtOutput
Fixed size output value which provides a safe Eq implementation that runs in constant time.
InvalidBufferSize
Buffer length is not equal to hash output size.
InvalidLength
The error type returned when key and/or IV used in the KeyInit, KeyIvInit, and InnerIvInit slice-based methods had an invalid length.
InvalidOutputSize
The error type used in variable hash traits.
MacError
Error type for when the Output of a Mac is not equal to the expected value.
XofFixedWrapper
Wrapper around ExtendableOutput types adding OutputSizeUser with the given size of S.

Traits§

CollisionResistance
Types with a certain collision resistance.
CustomizedInit
Trait for hash functions with customization string for domain separation.
Digest
Convenience wrapper trait covering functionality of cryptographic hash functions with fixed output size.
DynDigest
Modification of the Digest trait suitable for trait objects.
ExtendableOutput
Trait for hash functions with extendable-output (XOF).
ExtendableOutputReset
Trait for hash functions with extendable-output (XOF) able to reset themselves.
FixedOutput
Trait for hash functions with fixed-size output.
FixedOutputReset
Trait for hash functions with fixed-size output able to reset themselves.
HashMarker
Marker trait for cryptographic hash functions.
InnerInit
Types which can be initialized from another type (usually block ciphers).
KeyInit
Types which can be initialized from a key.
Mac
Convenience wrapper trait covering functionality of Message Authentication algorithms.
MacMarker
Marker trait for Message Authentication algorithms.
OutputSizeUser
Types which return data with the given size.
Reset
Resettable types.
Update
Types which consume data with byte granularity.
XofReader
Trait for reader types which are used to extract extendable output from a XOF (extendable-output function) result.

Type Aliases§

Key
Key used by KeySizeUser implementors.
Output
Output array of OutputSizeUser implementors.
