Description

PHP library for parts of the official BLAKE2b implementation.

Installing

Run the following command from the root of your project to install this library and configure your project to use it.

composer require nicolasflamel/blake2b

Usage

After a Blake2b object has been created, it can be used to compute the BLAKE2b hash of a string with an optional key and size.

The following code briefly shows how to use this library. A more complete example is available here.

<?php

// Require dependencies
require_once __DIR__ . "/vendor/autoload.php";

// Use BLAKE2b
use Nicolasflamel\Blake2b\Blake2b;

// Initialize BLAKE2b
$blake2b = new Blake2b();

// Compute hash
$hash = $blake2b->compute(hex2bin("0102030405060708090a0b0c0d0e0f101112131415161718191a1b1c1d1e1f20"), hex2bin("0102030405060708090a0b0c0d0e0f101112131415161718191a1b1c1d1e1f20"), 32);

?>

Functions

1. BLAKE2b constructor: constructor(): Blake2b

   This constructor is used to create a Blake2b object and it returns the following value:

   • Blake2b: An Blake2b object.

2. BLAKE2b compute method: compute(string $input, ?string $key = NULL, int $resultSize = 32): string | FALSE

   This method is used to compute the BLAKE2b hash for provided input and it accepts the following parameters:

   • string $input: The input to hash.
   • ?string $key (optional): The key to use when computing the hash. If NULL then no key will be used.
   • int $resultSize (optional): The desired size of the hash.

   This method returns the following values:

   • string: The BLAKE2b hash for the provided input using the key if provided and at the specified size.
   • FALSE: Computing the hash failed.
