[titledesc {SHA1 Message-Digest Algorithm}]
[require Tcl 8.2]
[require sha1 [opt 2.0.3]]
[description]
[para]
This package provides an implementation in Tcl of the SHA1
message-digest algorithm as specified by FIPS PUB 180-1 (1). This
algorithm takes a message and generates a 160-bit digest from the
input. The SHA1 algorithm is related to the MD4 algorith (2) but has
been strengthend against certain types of cryptographic attack. SHA1
should be used in preference to MD4 or MD5 in new applications.
[para]
This package also includes support for creating keyed message-digests
using the HMAC algorithm from RFC 2104 (3) with SHA1 as the
message-digest.
[section {COMMANDS}]
[list_begin definitions]
[call [cmd ::sha1::sha1] \
[opt "[arg -hex|-bin]"] \
[lb] [arg "-channel channel"] | \
[arg "-file filename"] | [arg "string"] [rb]]
The command takes a message and returns the SHA1 digest of this message
as a hexadecimal string. You may request the result as binary data by
giving [arg "-bin"].
[para]
The data to be hashed can be specified either as a string argument to
the [cmd "sha1"] command, or as a filename or a pre-opened channel. If the
[arg "-filename"] argument is given then the file is opened, the data read
and hashed and the file is closed. If the [arg "-channel"] argument is
given then data is read from the channel until the end of file. The
channel is not closed. [emph NOTE] use of the channel or filename
options results in the internal use of [cmd vwait]. To avoid nested
event loops in Tk or tclhttpd applications you should use the
incremental programming API (see below).
[para]
Only one of [arg "-file"], [arg "-channel"] or [arg "string"] should be given.
[call [cmd "::sha1::hmac"] [arg "key"] [arg "string"]]
[call [cmd "::sha1::hmac"] \
[opt "[arg -hex|-bin]"] \
[arg "-key key"] \
[lb] [arg "-channel channel"] | \
[arg "-file filename"] | [arg "string"] [rb]]
Calculate an Hashed Message Authentication digest (HMAC) using the SHA1
digest algorithm. HMACs are described in RFC 2104 (3) and provide an SHA1
digest that includes a key. All options other than [arg -key] are as
for the [cmd "::sha1::sha1"] command.
[list_end]
[section {PROGRAMMING INTERFACE}]
For the programmer, the SHA1 hash can be viewed as a bucket into which
one pours data. When you have finished, you extract a value that is
derived from the data that was poured into the bucket. The programming
interface to the SHA1 hash operates on a token (equivalent to the
bucket). You call [cmd "SHA1Init"] to obtain a token and then call
[cmd "SHA1Update"] as many times as required to add data to the hash. To
release any resources and obtain the hash value, you then call
[cmd "SHA1Final"]. An equivalent set of functions gives you a keyed digest
(HMAC).
[para]
If you have [package critcl] and have built the [package tcllibc] package
then the implementation of the hashing function will be performed by compiled
code. Failing that if you have the [package Trf] package then this can
be used otherwise there is a pure-tcl equivalent. The programming
interface remains the same in all cases.
[list_begin definitions]
[call [cmd "::sha1::SHA1Init"]]
Begins a new SHA1 hash. Returns a token ID that must be used for the
remaining functions.
[call [cmd "::sha1::SHA1Update"] [arg "token"] [arg "data"]]
Add data to the hash identified by token. Calling
[emph {SHA1Update $token "abcd"}] is equivalent to calling
[emph {SHA1Update $token "ab"}] followed by
[emph {SHA1Update $token "cb"}]. See [sectref {EXAMPLES}].
[call [cmd "::sha1::SHA1Final"] [arg "token"]]
Returns the hash value and releases any resources held by this
token. Once this command completes the token will be invalid. The
result is a binary string of 20 bytes representing the 160 bit SHA1
digest value.
[call [cmd "::sha1::HMACInit"] [arg "key"]]
This is equivalent to the [cmd "::sha1::SHA1Init"] command except that
it requires the key that will be included in the HMAC.
[call [cmd "::sha1::HMACUpdate"] [arg "token"] [arg "data"]]
[call [cmd "::sha1::HMACFinal"] [arg "token"]]
These commands are identical to the SHA1 equivalent commands.
