# class Digest::Class

This module stands as a base class for digest implementation classes.

### Public Class Methods

base64digest (str, *args)
Source

    # File ext/digest/lib/digest.rb, line 55
    def self.base64digest(str, *args)
      [digest(str, *args)].pack('m0')
    end

Returns the base64 encoded hash value of a given string. The return value is properly padded with ‘=’ and contains no line feeds.

Digest::Class.bubblebabble(string, ...) → hash_string
Source

    static VALUE
    rb_digest_class_s_bubblebabble(int argc, VALUE *argv, VALUE klass)
    {
        return bubblebabble_str_new(rb_funcallv(klass, id_digest, argc, argv));
    }

Returns the BubbleBabble encoded hash value of a given string.

Digest::Class.digest(string, *parameters) → hash_string
Source

    static VALUE
    rb_digest_class_s_digest(int argc, VALUE *argv, VALUE klass)
    {
        VALUE str;
        volatile VALUE obj;

        if (argc < 1) {
            rb_raise(rb_eArgError, "no data given");
        }

        str = *argv++;
        argc--;

        StringValue(str);

        obj = rb_obj_alloc(klass);
        rb_obj_call_init(obj, argc, argv);

        return rb_funcall(obj, id_digest, 1, str);
    }

Returns the hash value of a given string. This is equivalent to `Digest::Class.new(*parameters)`.digest(string), where extra parameters, if any, are passed through to the constructor and the string is passed to `digest()`.

file (name, *args)
Source

    # File ext/digest/lib/digest.rb, line 48
    def self.file(name, *args)
      new(*args).file(name)
    end

Creates a digest object and reads a given file, name. Optional arguments are passed to the constructor of the digest class.

    p Digest::SHA256.file("X11R6.8.2-src.tar.bz2").hexdigest
    # => "f02e3c85572dc9ad7cb77c2a638e3be24cc1b5bea9fdbb0b0299c9668475c534"

Digest::Class.hexdigest(string[, ...]) → hash_string
Source

    static VALUE
    rb_digest_class_s_hexdigest(int argc, VALUE *argv, VALUE klass)
    {
        return hexencode_str_new(rb_funcallv(klass, id_digest, argc, argv));
    }

Returns the hex-encoded hash value of a given string. This is almost equivalent to `Digest.hexencode`(`Digest::Class.new(*parameters)`.digest(string)).
