Module type Hash.SSource
Signature for hash values.
Signature for digest hashes, inspired by Digestif.
val hash : ((string -> unit) -> unit) -> tCompute a deterministic store key from a sequence of strings.
val short_hash : t -> intshort_hash h is a small hash of h, to be used for instance as the `hash` function of an OCaml Hashtbl.
val to_raw_string : t -> stringto_raw_string t is the raw sequence of bytes in t (of length hash_size).
val unsafe_of_raw_string : string -> tunsafe_of_raw_string b is the hash consisting of the raw sequence of bytes b.
Warning: this function cannot guarantee that the supplied byte string is a valid output of the hash process, so should only be used on strings that are known to have been built with to_raw_string.
short_hash_substring t off computes the short-hash of the raw hash data contained in t at offset off. It has behaviour equivalent to:
Bigstringaf.substring t ~off ~len:hash_size
|> unsafe_of_raw_string
|> short_hashbut may be more efficient due to not needing to allocate an intermediate string.
