ExKeccak

ExKeccak is a NIF that wraps the KECCAK-256 function from the tiny-keccak Rust library. KECCAK-256 is used by Ethereum.

Installation

ex_keccak requires Rust to be installed.

The package can be installed by adding ex_keccak to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [
    {:ex_keccak, "~> 0.1.1"}
  ]
end

Usage

To calculate KECCAK-256 hash, use ExKeccak.hash_256/1 function. It returns {:ok, result} on success:

{
  :ok,
  <<28, 138, 255, 149, 6, 133, 194, 237, 75, 195, 23, 79, 52, 114, 40, 123, 86, 217, 81, 123, 156, 148, 129, 39, 49, 154, 9, 167, 163, 109, 234, 200>>
} = ExKeccak.hash_256("hello")

And it returns {:error, :invalid_type} if the provided data is not binary:

{:error, :invalid_type} = ExKeccak.hash_256(11)
