NAME

Crypt::Mac::HMAC - Message authentication code HMAC

SYNOPSIS

### Functional interface:
use Crypt::Mac::HMAC qw( hmac hmac_hex );

# calculate MAC from string/buffer
$hmac_raw = hmac('SHA256', $key, 'data buffer');
$hmac_hex = hmac_hex('SHA256', $key, 'data buffer');
$hmac_b64 = hmac_b64('SHA256', $key, 'data buffer');

### OO interface:
use Crypt::Mac::HMAC;

$d = Crypt::Mac::HMAC->new('SHA256', $key);
$d->add('any data');
$d->addfile('filename.dat');
$d->addfile(*FILEHANDLE);
$result_raw = $d->mac;    # raw bytes
$result_hex = $d->hexmac; # hexadecimal form
$result_b64 = $d->b64mac; # Base64 form

DESCRIPTION

Provides an interface to the HMAC message authentication code (MAC) algorithm.

EXPORT

Nothing is exported by default.

You can export selected functions:

use Crypt::Mac::HMAC qw(hmac hmac_hex );

Or all of them at once:

use Crypt::Mac::HMAC ':all';

FUNCTIONS

hmac

Logically joins all arguments into a single string, and returns its HMAC message authentication code encoded as a binary string.

$hmac_raw = hmac($hash_name, $key, 'data buffer');
#or
$hmac_raw = hmac($hash_name, $key, 'any data', 'more data', 'even more data');

hmac_hex

Logically joins all arguments into a single string, and returns its HMAC message authentication code encoded as a hexadecimal string.

$hmac_hex = hmac_hex($hash_name, $key, 'data buffer');
#or
$hmac_hex = hmac_hex($hash_name, $key, 'any data', 'more data', 'even more data');

hmac_b64

Logically joins all arguments into a single string, and returns its HMAC message authentication code encoded as a BASE64 string.

$hmac_b64 = hmac_b64($hash_name, $key, 'data buffer');
#or
$hmac_b64 = hmac_b64($hash_name, $key, 'any data', 'more data', 'even more data');

METHODS

The OO interface provides the same set of functions as Crypt::Mac.

new

$d = Crypt::Mac::HMAC->new($hash_name, $key);

clone

$d->clone();

reset

$d->reset();

add

$d->add('any data');
#or
$d->add('any data', 'more data', 'even more data');

addfile

$d->addfile('filename.dat');
#or
$d->addfile(*FILEHANDLE);

mac

$result_raw = $d->mac();

hexmac

$result_hex = $d->hexmac();

b64mac

$result_b64 = $d->b64mac();
