NAME

Crypt::Mac::BLAKE2b - Message authentication code BLAKE2b MAC (RFC 7693)

SYNOPSIS

### Functional interface:
use Crypt::Mac::BLAKE2b qw( blake2b blake2b_hex );

# calculate MAC from string/buffer
$blake2b_raw  = blake2b($size, $key, 'data buffer');
$blake2b_hex  = blake2b_hex($size, $key, 'data buffer');
$blake2b_b64  = blake2b_b64($size, $key, 'data buffer');
$blake2b_b64u = blake2b_b64u($size, $key, 'data buffer');

### OO interface:
use Crypt::Mac::BLAKE2b;

$d = Crypt::Mac::BLAKE2b->new($size, $key);
$d->add('any data');
$d->addfile('filename.dat');
$d->addfile(*FILEHANDLE);
$result_raw  = $d->mac;     # raw bytes
$result_hex  = $d->hexmac;  # hexadecimal form
$result_b64  = $d->b64mac;  # Base64 form
$result_b64u = $d->b64umac; # Base64 URL Safe form

DESCRIPTION

Provides an interface to the BLAKE2b message authentication code (MAC) algorithm.

EXPORT

Nothing is exported by default.

You can export selected functions:

use Crypt::Mac::BLAKE2b qw(blake2b blake2b_hex );

Or all of them at once:

use Crypt::Mac::BLAKE2b ':all';

FUNCTIONS

blake2b

Logically joins all arguments into a single string, and returns its BLAKE2b message authentication code encoded as a binary string.

$blake2b_raw = blake2b($size, $key, 'data buffer');
#or
$blake2b_raw = blake2b($size, $key, 'any data', 'more data', 'even more data');

blake2b_hex

Logically joins all arguments into a single string, and returns its BLAKE2b message authentication code encoded as a hexadecimal string.

$blake2b_hex = blake2b_hex($size, $key, 'data buffer');
#or
$blake2b_hex = blake2b_hex($size, $key, 'any data', 'more data', 'even more data');

blake2b_b64

Logically joins all arguments into a single string, and returns its BLAKE2b message authentication code encoded as a Base64 string.

$blake2b_b64 = blake2b_b64($size, $key, 'data buffer');
#or
$blake2b_b64 = blake2b_b64($size, $key, 'any data', 'more data', 'even more data');

blake2b_b64u

Logically joins all arguments into a single string, and returns its BLAKE2b message authentication code encoded as a Base64 URL Safe string (see RFC 4648 section 5).

$blake2b_b64url = blake2b_b64u($size, $key, 'data buffer');
#or
$blake2b_b64url = blake2b_b64u($size, $key, 'any data', 'more data', 'even more data');
