Struct password_hash::Value

pub struct Value<'a>(_);

Algorithm parameter value string.

Parameter values are defined in the PHC string format specification.

Constraints

• ASCII-encoded string consisting of the characters [a-zA-Z0-9/+.-] (lowercase letters, digits, and the minus sign)
• Minimum length: 0 (i.e. empty values are allowed)
• Maximum length: 64 ASCII characters (i.e. 64-bytes)

Additional Notes

The PHC spec allows for algorithm-defined maximum lengths for parameter values, however this library defines a Value::MAX_LENGTH of 64 ASCII characters.

Implementations

impl<'a> Value<'a>

pub const MAX_LENGTH: usize = 64usize

Maximum length of an Value - 64 ASCII characters (i.e. 64-bytes).

This value is selected to match the maximum length of a Salt as this library internally uses this type to represent salts.

pub fn new(input: &'a str) -> Result<Self>

Parse a Value from the provided str, validating it according to the PHC string format’s rules.

pub fn b64_decode<'b>(&self, buf: &'b mut [u8]) -> Result<&'b [u8]>

Attempt to decode a B64-encoded Value, writing the decoded result into the provided buffer, and returning a slice of the buffer containing the decoded result on success.

Examples of “B64”-encoded parameters in practice are the keyid and data parameters used by the Argon2 Encoding as described in the PHC string format specification.

pub fn as_str(&self) -> &'a str

Borrow this value as a str.

pub fn as_bytes(&self) -> &'a [u8]

Borrow this value as bytes.

pub fn len(&self) -> usize

Get the length of this value in ASCII characters.

pub fn is_empty(&self) -> bool

Is this value empty?

pub fn decimal(&self) -> Result<Decimal>

Attempt to parse this Value as a PHC-encoded decimal (i.e. integer).

Decimal values are integers which follow the rules given in the “Decimal Encoding” section of the PHC string format specification.

The decimal encoding rules are as follows:

For an integer value x, its decimal encoding consist in the following:

• If x < 0, then its decimal encoding is the minus sign - followed by the decimal encoding of -x.
• If x = 0, then its decimal encoding is the single character 0.
• If x > 0, then its decimal encoding is the smallest sequence of ASCII digits that matches its value (i.e. there is no leading zero).

Thus, a value is a valid decimal for an integer x if and only if all of the following hold true:

• The first character is either a - sign, or an ASCII digit.
• All characters other than the first are ASCII digits.
• If the first character is - sign, then there is at least another character, and the second character is not a 0.
• If the string consists in more than one character, then the first one cannot be a 0.

Note: this implementation does not support negative decimals despite them being allowed per the spec above. If you need to parse a negative number, please parse it from the string representation directly e.g. value.as_str().parse::<i32>()

pub fn is_decimal(&self) -> bool

Does this value parse successfully as a decimal?
