The Sha2 package
This package provides an implementation of the Sha2 family of hash functions implemented in Motoko. The supported algorithms are:
- sha224
- sha256
- sha512-224
- sha512-256
- sha384
- sha512
Usage
The code was derived from https://github.com/enzoh/motoko-sha/. In contrast to the functions there, this code can hash type Blob
.
More generally, it can hash type Iter<Nat8>
. Hence, for data
of any of the types Blob
, [Nat8]
or [var Nat8]
one can make the same call SHA2.fromIter(#sha512,data.vals())
. For type Blob
there is also the shorthand form SHA2.fromBlob(#sha512,data)
. The allowed algorithms are #sha224, #sha256, #sha384, #sha512, #sha512_224, #sha512_256
.
