file-hashing

This crate will help you easily get hash from files or folders

Example

let path = PathBuf::from("/home/gladi/test-hashing.txt");

let mut hash = Blake2s256::new();
let result = get_hash_file(&path, &mut hash).unwrap();

assert_eq!(result.len(), 64); // Blake2s256 len == 64

P.S. If the examples from the documentation do not work, then you need to look at the unit tests

Motivation

Each time we write our own function to get the hash from a file or folder. We repeat ourselves and violate the DRY principle. With this crate you can save a couple of hours
