Crystal bindings for xxHash - an extremely fast non-cryptographic hashing algorithm

xxhash-crystal

These are the crystal bindings for xxHash

  • An extremely fast non-cryptographic hash algorithm

Installation

Add this to your application's shard.yml:

dependencies:
  xxhash:
    github: jreinert/xxhash-crystal

Usage

This library provides bindings for both the 64 and 32 bit version of xxHash They are accessed through the modules XXHash32 and XXHash64 respectively.

You should use the one that matches your cpu architecture.

require "xxhash"

# Pass a nn-bit seed
seed = (Random::Secure.random_bytes(8).to_unsafe.as(UInt64*)).value
puts XXHash64.hex_digest("foobar", seed)

# Or use 0 by default
puts XXHash64.hex_digest("foobar")

# Stream data
XXHash64.open(seed) do |digester|
  IO.copy(some_io, digester)
  puts digester.hex_digest
end

Benchmarks

Run with make bench. Set the DATA_SIZE_GIB environment variable to alter used data size.
