SHA3-384 #22

Closed dmbarbour closed 10 years ago

dmbarbour commented 10 years ago

I would like to use some of the variant sizes for SHA3, esp. SHA3-384.

vincenthz commented 10 years ago

what is stopping you ?

dmbarbour commented 10 years ago

The API documentation, I suspect. It isn't clear to me how to init or finalize SHA3-384 with a particular length. SHA2 has dedicated modules for each length, so in comparison it's quite clear. SHA3 doesn't even indicate the length.

dmbarbour commented 10 years ago

Is the 'Int' argument in bits, as in 'SHA3-384' uses the argument '384'?

vincenthz commented 10 years ago

you can either use the SHA3 module and the length of 'hash' and 'init' would be 384 indeed, or you can use the generalized hash interface:

 import Crypto.Hash (hash, SHA3_384)
 hash bytestringToHash :: Digest SHA3_384

Ah, I hadn't even noticed the 'generalized Crypto.Hash interface'.
