Implementation of the Skein family of cryptographic hash algorithms.
There are 3 standard versions of the Skein hash function: Skein256
, Skein512
, Skein1024
.
Output size of the Skein hash functions is arbitrary, so it has to be fixed using additional type parameter.
use hex_literal::hex;
use skein::{Digest, Skein512, consts::U32};
let mut hasher = Skein512::<U32>::new();
hasher.update(b"The quick brown fox ");
hasher.update(b"jumps over the lazy dog");
let hash = hasher.finalize();
assert_eq!(hash, hex!("b3250457e05d3060b1a4bbc1428bc75a3f525ca389aeab96cfa34638d96e492a"));
// Hex-encode hash using https://docs.rs/base16ct
let hex_hash = base16ct::lower::encode_string(&hash);
assert_eq!(hex_hash, "b3250457e05d3060b1a4bbc1428bc75a3f525ca389aeab96cfa34638d96e492a");
Also, see the examples section in the RustCrypto/hashes readme.
Rust 1.81 or higher.
Minimum supported Rust version can be changed in the future, but it will be done with a minor version bump.
