PyHashKit v0.2.1

PyHashKit v0.2.1

This release introduces SHAKE algorithm support, configurable digest sizes, expanded test coverage, and CLI enhancements.

New Features

• Added SHAKE-128 (shake_128) support

• Added SHAKE-256 (shake_256) support

• Added digest_size parameter to hash_text()

• Added digest_size parameter to hash_file()

• Added CLI digest size option:

  • -d
  • --digest-size

Improvements

• Added SHAKE algorithm support to the command line interface
• Added validation and handling for variable-length SHAKE digests
• Expanded unit test coverage for SHAKE-128 and SHAKE-256
• Updated CLI help messages and examples
• Updated documentation and README

Notes

• SHAKE algorithms require a digest size to determine output length
• Default SHAKE digest size is 32
• digest_size is ignored for non-SHAKE algorithms
• Python 3.8+ supported
• No external dependencies required

Installation

pip install -U PyHashKit

Examples

Hash text using SHAKE-128:

pyhashkit text "Hello World" -a shake_128 -d 64

Hash a file using SHAKE-256:

pyhashkit file example.txt -a shake_256 -d 128

List available algorithms:

pyhashkit algorithms

Show version:

pyhashkit --version

Python API

from pyhashkit import hash_text, hash_file

print(
    hash_text(
        "Hello World",
        algorithm="shake_128",
        digest_size=64
    )
)

print(
    hash_file(
        "example.txt",
        algorithm="shake_256",
        digest_size=128
    )
)
