Documentation
class HashAlgorithm a where
Class representing hashing algorithms.
The hash algorithm is built over 3 primitives:
- init : create a new hashing context
- updates : update the hashing context with some strict bytestrings and return the new context
- finalize : finalize the context into a digest
Methods
hashBlockSize :: Context a -> Int
Block size in bytes the hash algorithm operates on
Initialize a new context for this hash algorithm
hashUpdates :: Context a -> [ByteString] -> Context a
Update the context with a list of strict bytestring, and return a new context with the updates.
hashFinalize :: Context a -> Digest a
Finalize a context and return a digest.
digestFromByteString :: ByteString -> Maybe (Digest a)
Try to convert a binary digest bytestring to a digest.
Instances
deprecated
contextToByteString :: Context a -> ByteString
return the binary bytestring. deprecated use toBytes.
digestToByteString :: Digest a -> ByteString
Deprecated: use toBytes from byteable:Data.Byteable
return the binary bytestring. deprecated use toBytes.
