# 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 1.56.1**.
|
|
|
|
|
|
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`.
