NAME

Digest::GOST - Perl interface to the GOST R 34.11-94 digest algorithm

SYNOPSIS

    # Functional interface
    use Digest::GOST qw(gost gost_hex gost_base64);

    $digest = gost($data);
    $digest = gost_hex($data);
    $digest = gost_base64($data);

    # Object-oriented interface
    use Digest::GOST;

    $ctx = Digest::GOST->new(256);

    $ctx->add($data);
    $ctx->addfile(*FILE);

    $digest = $ctx->digest;
    $digest = $ctx->hexdigest;
    $digest = $ctx->b64digest;

DESCRIPTION

The "Digest::GOST" module provides an interface to the GOST R 34.11-94 message digest algorithm.

This interface follows the conventions set forth by the "Digest" module.

This module uses the default "test" parameters. To use the CryptoPro parameters, use "Digest::GOST::CryptoPro".

FUNCTIONS

The following functions are provided by the "Digest::GOST" module. None of these functions are exported by default.

gost($data, ...)

Logically joins the arguments into a single string, and returns its GOST digest encoded as a binary string.

gost_hex($data, ...)

Logically joins the arguments into a single string, and returns its GOST digest encoded as a hexadecimal string.

gost_base64($data, ...)

Logically joins the arguments into a single string, and returns its GOST digest encoded as a Base64 string, without any trailing padding.

METHODS

The object-oriented interface to "Digest::GOST" is identical to that described by "Digest".
