Support for computing hashes incrementally #24

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
I have an application where I want to incrementally compute hashes of data, eg.

  SHA256(A)
  SHA256(A+B)
  SHA256(A+B+C)
  etc.

I don't want this to be an O(n^2) algorithm, so I was wondering if the API 
could support a lower-level object with an API like:

  var sha256 = new Crypto.SHA256()
  sha256.append(A)
  var digestA = sha256.digest();
  sha256.append(B)
  var digestB = sha256.digest();
  // etc.

It seems like the algorithm allows this and that this would be easy to 
implement.  What do you think?

It's interesting idea. The upcoming 3.0 release will indeed support 
incrementally appending the message. Though, it'll be tricky to continue 
appending after you've completed the digest. Completing the digest involves 
adding padding, then hashing the last padded block.

Cool.  It seems doable if you just make the final padding and hashing 
calculation local to the function that returns the digest instead of mutating 
the object (you could cache the digest if you were worried about the efficiency 
of repeated calls to digest()).

Is the code for your upcoming 3.0 release currently available in a public 
repository?  If so I'd be happy to take a stab at it and send a patch, if you 
like.

I also have the need to compute MD5 checksums incrementally. This, combined 
with the new HTML5 File APIs would allow for a very robust upload mechanism. 
Any estimate on when this functionality (supposedly in version 3) will be 
available?

Thanks!
Evan

Version 3 is very close. I'd expect it to be ready within the next month. I'm 
mostly focusing on the cipher components now, and the hashing components are 
largely set.

Here's a preview for you.

<script>

// Basic hashing
var hash = CryptoJS.SHA256('abc');

// Output encoding
alert('Hash encoded as latin-1 string: ' + hash.toString(CryptoJS.enc.Latin1));
alert('Hash encoded as base-64 string: ' + hash.toString(CryptoJS.enc.Base64));
alert('Hash encoded as hex string: ' + hash); // Default is hex

// Incremental hashing
var sha256 = CryptoJS.algo.SHA256.create();
sha256.update('a');
sha256.update('b');
sha256.update('c');
var hash = sha256.finalize();

alert('Incrementally computed hash: ' + hash);

// Incremental hashing, capturing intermediate hash values
var sha256 = CryptoJS.algo.SHA256.create();
var hashA = sha256.update('a').clone().finalize();
var hashAB = sha256.update('b').clone().finalize();
var hashABC = sha256.update('c').clone().finalize();

alert('Intermediate hash value "a": ' + hashA);
alert('Intermediate hash value "ab": ' + hashAB);
alert('Intermediate hash value "abc": ' + hashABC);

</script>

This feature now officially available with version 3.
