simple-blake3 v6.7.4

BLAKE3 Cryptographic Hash Function

• Much faster than MD5, SHA-1, SHA-2, SHA-3, and BLAKE2.
• Secure, unlike MD5 and SHA-1. And secure against length extension, unlike SHA-2.
• Highly parallelizable across any number of threads and SIMD lanes, because it's a Merkle tree on the inside.
• Capable of verified streaming and incremental updates, again because it's a Merkle tree.
• A PRF, MAC, KDF, and XOF, as well as a regular hash.
• One algorithm with no variants, which is fast on x86-64 and also on smaller architectures.

Installation

~ npm i simple-blake3

Usage

With Key Protection

const blake3 = require('./index')

const toHash = 'Blake3 Please Hash Me'

const key = blake3.createKey()
//==> Secure Key Generated With NanoID

const hashed = blake3.hashKeyed(toHash, key)
//==> Create BLAKE3 Hash

console.log('Hashed: ', hashed)

const verified = blake3.verifyKeyed(toHash, hashed, key)
//==> Create New Hash And Match It

console.log('Verified: ', verified)
//⇒ True/False

Without Key

const blake3 = require('./index')

const toHash = 'Blake3 Please Hash Me'

const hashed = blake3.hash(toHash)
//==> Create BLAKE3 Hash

console.log('Hashed: ', hashed)

const verified = blake3.verify(toHash, hashed)
//==> Create New Hash And Match It

console.log('Verified: ', verified)
//⇒ True/False
