Functions

func CalculateHash

func CalculateHash(text, htype string) string

func CalculateMD5Hash

func CalculateMD5Hash(text string) string

func HasLikelyHexHashStringEntropy

func HasLikelyHexHashStringEntropy(str string) bool

HasLikelyHexHashStringEntropy states whether a string has an entropy which may entail it is a hexadecimal hash This is based on the work done by `detect-secrets` https://github.com/Yelp/detect-secrets/blob/2fc0e31f067af98d97ad0f507dac032c9506f667/detect_secrets/plugins/high_entropy_strings.py#L150

func IsLikelyHexHashString

func IsLikelyHexHashString(str string) bool

IsLikelyHexHashString determines whether the string is likely to be a hexadecimal hash or not.

Types

type IHash

type IHash interface {
	Calculate(reader io.Reader) (string, error)
	CalculateWithContext(ctx context.Context, reader io.Reader) (string, error)
	GetType() string
}

IHash defines a hashing algorithm.

func NewHashingAlgorithm

func NewHashingAlgorithm(htype string) (IHash, error)
