rust-multihash

Build Status Crates.io License Documentation Dependency Status Coverage Status

multihash implementation in Rust.

Table of Contents

Install

First add this to your Cargo.toml

[dependencies]
multihash = "*"

Then run cargo build.

MSRV

The minimum supported Rust version for this library is 1.64.0. This is only guaranteed without additional features activated.

Usage

The multihash crate exposes a basic data structure for encoding and decoding multihash. It does not provide any hashing functionality itself. Multihash uses const-generics to define the internal buffer size. You should set this to the maximum size of the digest you want to support.

use multihash::Multihash;

const SHA2_256: u64 = 0x12;

fn main() {
	let hash = Multihash::<64>::wrap(SHA2_256, b"my digest");
	println!("{:?}", hash);
}

Using a custom code table

You can derive your own application specific code table using the multihash-derive crate. The multihash-codetable provides predefined hasher implementations if you don't want to implement your own.

use multihash_derive::MultihashDigest;

#[derive(Clone, Copy, Debug, Eq, MultihashDigest, PartialEq)]
#[mh(alloc_size = 64)]
pub enum Code {
    #[mh(code = 0x01, hasher = multihash_codetable::Sha2_256)]
    Foo,
    #[mh(code = 0x02, hasher = multihash_codetable::Sha2_512)]
    Bar,
}

fn main() {
    let hash = Code::Foo.digest(b"my hash");
    println!("{:02x?}", hash);
}
