v2_5_5 - Show latest stable - 0 notes - Class: HMAC

hexdigest(p1, p2, p3) public

Returns the authentication code as a hex-encoded string. The digest parameter specifies the digest algorithm to use. This may be a String representing the algorithm name or an instance of OpenSSL::Digest.

Example

key = 'key'
data = 'The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog'

hmac = OpenSSL::HMAC.hexdigest('sha1', key, data)
#=> "de7c9b85b8b78aa6bc8a7a36f70a90701c9db4d9"
