Done as is single patch to make sure all the docs and CI are in sync and correct. We currently pin the `schemars` dependency using `<=0.8.3` as well as a the `dyn-clone` transient dependency in the manifest (`hashes` and the extended test crate). This is incorrect because it makes usage of the crate klunky (or possibly impossible) if downstream users wish to use a later version of `schemars`. Observe also that we do not have to pin `schemars`, we do however have to pin the `serde` crate if either `serde` or `schemars` features are enabled. Do so in CI and document in the readme file within hashes. Currently we have a pin remaining from the old MSRV (`syn` due to use of `matches!`). Fix pinning by: - Remove pin in manifest for `schemars` - Fix pinning for MSRV in CI and docs (this includes documenting pinning requirements for `schemars` feature because it is related to the other pin of `serde`) in both `hashes` readme and main repo readme. |

Bitcoin Hashes Library
This is a simple, no-dependency library which implements the hash functions needed by Bitcoin. These are SHA1, SHA256, SHA256d, SHA512, and RIPEMD160. As an ancilliary thing, it exposes hexadecimal serialization and deserialization, since these are needed to display hashes anway.
Minimum Supported Rust Version (MSRV)
This library should always compile with any combination of features on Rust 1.48.0.
To build with the MSRV you will need to pin serde
(if you have either the serde
or the
schemars
feature enabled)
# serde 1.0.157 uses syn 2.0 which requires edition 2021
cargo update -p serde --precise 1.0.156
before building. (And if your code is a library, your downstream users will need to run these commands, and so on.)
Contributions
Contributions are welcome, including additional hash function implementations.
Githooks
To assist devs in catching errors before running CI we provide some githooks. If you do not already have locally configured githooks you can use the ones in this repository by running, in the root directory of the repository:
git config --local core.hooksPath githooks/
Alternatively add symlinks in your .git/hooks
directory to any of the githooks we provide.
Running Benchmarks
We use a custom Rust compiler configuration conditional to guard the bench mark code. To run the
bench marks use: RUSTFLAGS='--cfg=bench' cargo +nightly bench
.
