NAME
Crypt::Digest::SHA512 - Hash function SHA-512 [size: 512 bits]
SYNOPSIS
### Functional interface:
use Crypt::Digest::SHA512 qw( sha512 sha512_hex sha512_base64 sha512_file sha512_file_hex sha512_file_base64 );
# calculate digest from string/buffer
$sha512_raw = sha512('data string');
$sha512_hex = sha512_hex('data string');
$sha512_b64 = sha512_base64('data string');
# calculate digest from file
$sha512_raw = sha512_file('filename.dat');
$sha512_hex = sha512_file_hex('filename.dat');
$sha512_b64 = sha512_file_base64('filename.dat');
# calculate digest from filehandle
$sha512_raw = sha512_file(*FILEHANDLE);
$sha512_hex = sha512_file_hex(*FILEHANDLE);
$sha512_b64 = sha512_file_base64(*FILEHANDLE);
### OO interface:
use Crypt::Digest::SHA512;
$d = Crypt::Digest::SHA512->new;
$d->add('any data');
$d->addfile('filename.dat');
$d->addfile(*FILEHANDLE);
$result_raw = $d->digest; # raw bytes
$result_hex = $d->hexdigest; # hexadecimal form
$result_b64 = $d->b64digest; # Base64 formDESCRIPTION
Provides an interface to the SHA512 digest algorithm.
EXPORT
Nothing is exported by default.
You can export selected functions:
use Crypt::Digest::SHA512 qw(sha512 sha512_hex sha512_base64 sha512_file sha512_file_hex sha512_file_base64);Or all of them at once:
use Crypt::Digest::SHA512 ':all';FUNCTIONS
sha512
Logically joins all arguments into a single string, and returns its SHA512 digest encoded as a binary string.
$sha512_raw = sha512('data string');
#or
$sha512_raw = sha512('any data', 'more data', 'even more data');sha512_hex
Logically joins all arguments into a single string, and returns its SHA512 digest encoded as a hexadecimal string.
$sha512_hex = sha512_hex('data string');
#or
$sha512_hex = sha512('any data', 'more data', 'even more data');sha512_base64
Logically joins all arguments into a single string, and returns its SHA512 digest encoded as a Base64 string, with trailing '=' padding.
$sha512_base64 = sha512_base64('data string');
#or
$sha512_base64 = sha512('any data', 'more data', 'even more data');sha512_file
Reads file (defined by filename or filehandle) content, and returns its SHA512 digest encoded as a binary string.
$sha512_raw = sha512_file('filename.dat');
#or
$sha512_raw = sha512_file(*FILEHANDLE);sha512_file_hex
Reads file (defined by filename or filehandle) content, and returns its SHA512 digest encoded as a hexadecimal string.
$sha512_hex = sha512_file_hex('filename.dat');
#or
$sha512_hex = sha512_file_hex(*FILEHANDLE);BEWARE: You have to make sure that the filehandle is in binary mode before you pass it as argument to the addfile() method.
sha512_file_base64
Reads file (defined by filename or filehandle) content, and returns its SHA512 digest encoded as a Base64 string, with trailing '=' padding.
$sha512_base64 = sha512_file_base64('filename.dat');
#or
$sha512_base64 = sha512_file_base64(*FILEHANDLE);METHODS
The OO interface provides the same set of functions as Crypt::Digest.
