func RegisterHashSource

func RegisterHash(h Hash, f func() hash.Hash)

RegisterHash registers a function that returns a new instance of the given hash function. This is intended to be called from the init function in packages that implement hash functions.

type DecrypterSource

Decrypter is an interface for an opaque private key that can be used for asymmetric decryption operations. An example would be an RSA key kept in a hardware module.

type Decrypter interface {
        // Public returns the public key corresponding to the opaque,
        // private key.
        Public() PublicKey

        // Decrypt decrypts msg. The opts argument should be appropriate for
        // the primitive used. See the documentation in each implementation for
        // details.
        Decrypt(rand io.Reader, msg []byte, opts DecrypterOpts) (plaintext []byte, err error)
}

type DecrypterOptsSource

type DecrypterOpts interface{}

type HashSource

Hash identifies a cryptographic hash function that is implemented in another package.

type Hash uint
const (
        MD4         Hash = 1 + iota // import golang.org/x/crypto/md4
        MD5                         // import crypto/md5
        SHA1                        // import crypto/sha1
        SHA224                      // import crypto/sha256
        SHA256                      // import crypto/sha256
        SHA384                      // import crypto/sha512
        SHA512                      // import crypto/sha512
        MD5SHA1                     // no implementation; MD5+SHA1 used for TLS RSA
        RIPEMD160                   // import golang.org/x/crypto/ripemd160
        SHA3_224                    // import golang.org/x/crypto/sha3
        SHA3_256                    // import golang.org/x/crypto/sha3
        SHA3_384                    // import golang.org/x/crypto/sha3
        SHA3_512                    // import golang.org/x/crypto/sha3
        SHA512_224                  // import crypto/sha512
        SHA512_256                  // import crypto/sha512
        BLAKE2s_256                 // import golang.org/x/crypto/blake2s
        BLAKE2b_256                 // import golang.org/x/crypto/blake2b
        BLAKE2b_384                 // import golang.org/x/crypto/blake2b
        BLAKE2b_512                 // import golang.org/x/crypto/blake2b

)

func (Hash) AvailableSource

func (h Hash) Available() bool

Available reports whether the given hash function is linked into the binary.

func (Hash) HashFuncSource

func (h Hash) HashFunc() Hash

HashFunc simply returns the value of h so that Hash implements SignerOpts.

func (Hash) NewSource

func (h Hash) New() hash.Hash

New returns a new hash.Hash calculating the given hash function. New panics if the hash function is not linked into the binary.

func (Hash) SizeSource

func (h Hash) Size() int

Size returns the length, in bytes, of a digest resulting from the given hash function. It doesn't require that the hash function in question be linked into the program.

type PrivateKeySource

PrivateKey represents a private key using an unspecified algorithm.

type PrivateKey interface{}

type PublicKeySource

PublicKey represents a public key using an unspecified algorithm.

type PublicKey interface{}

type SignerSource

Signer is an interface for an opaque private key that can be used for signing operations. For example, an RSA key kept in a hardware module.

type Signer interface {
        // Public returns the public key corresponding to the opaque,
        // private key.
        Public() PublicKey

        // Sign signs digest with the private key, possibly using entropy from
        // rand. For an RSA key, the resulting signature should be either a
        // PKCS#1 v1.5 or PSS signature (as indicated by opts). For an (EC)DSA
        // key, it should be a DER-serialised, ASN.1 signature structure.
        //
        // Hash implements the SignerOpts interface and, in most cases, one can
        // simply pass in the hash function used as opts. Sign may also attempt
        // to type assert opts to other types in order to obtain algorithm
        // specific values. See the documentation in each package for details.
        //
        // Note that when a signature of a hash of a larger message is needed,
        // the caller is responsible for hashing the larger message and passing
        // the hash (as digest) and the hash function (as opts) to Sign.
        Sign(rand io.Reader, digest []byte, opts SignerOpts) (signature []byte, err error)
}

type SignerOptsSource

SignerOpts contains options for signing with a Signer.

type SignerOpts interface {
        // HashFunc returns an identifier for the hash function used to produce
        // the message passed to Signer.Sign, or else zero to indicate that no
        // hashing was done.
        HashFunc() Hash
}
