Digest::Hamsi - Perl interface to the Hamsi digest algorithm
# Functional interface use Digest::Hamsi qw(hamsi_256 hamsi_256_hex hamsi_256_base64); $digest = hamsi_256($data); $digest = hamsi_256_hex($data); $digest = hamsi_256_base64($data); # Object-oriented interface use Digest::Hamsi; $ctx = Digest::Hamsi->new(256); $ctx->add($data); $ctx->addfile(*FILE); $digest = $ctx->digest; $digest = $ctx->hexdigest; $digest = $ctx->b64digest;
The Digest::Hamsi module provides an interface to the Hamsi message digest algorithm. Hamsi was a candidate in the NIST SHA-3 competition but did progress beyond round 2.
Digest::Hamsi
This interface follows the conventions set forth by the Digest module.
Digest
The following functions are provided by the Digest::Hamsi module. None of these functions are exported by default.
Logically joins the arguments into a single string, and returns its Hamsi digest encoded as a binary string.
Logically joins the arguments into a single string, and returns its Hamsi digest encoded as a hexadecimal string.
Logically joins the arguments into a single string, and returns its Hamsi digest encoded as a Base64 string, without any trailing padding.
The object-oriented interface to Digest::Hamsi is identical to that described by Digest, except for the following:
$hamsi = Digest::Hamsi->new(256)
The constructor requires the algorithm to be specified. It must be one of: 224, 256, 384, 512.
Returns the algorithm used by the object.
