public abstract class MessageDigest extends Object:

Object

└ MessageDigest

Abstract base class for text-oriented message digests.

Concrete algorithms are exposed as dedicated subclasses such as SHA256, SHA512, SHA3_256 or MD5. This keeps the public API explicit and easy to discover while preserving the shared buffering and file-digest helpers in one place.

import klyn.cryptography

md as MessageDigest = SHA256()
digest = md.digest("hello")
print(digest.size)
print(SHA512().digestInfo("hello").hex)
