Overview 📖

The Message Digest (MDG) is an implementation of the MD5 cryptographic hash function. It provides a struct, MD5, that can generate a message digest of data in a secure, one-way hash. The message digest can verify the integrity of the data without having to store the entire message.

Features ✨

The MD5 struct has a variety of functions to make it easy to use. The new function creates a new instance of the struct, ready to hash data. The transform function updates the struct 's internal state with new data, and the finalize function finishes the message digest and returns it.

• An MD5 struct that represents the current state of the hash computation.
• A new() method to create a new instance of the struct.
• A transform() method to update the internal state with new data.
• A finalize() method to finalize the hash computation and return the result as a 16-byte array.

Installation 📦

It takes just a few minutes to get up and running with mdg.

Requirements

mdg requires Rust 1.67.0 or later.
