Human Hash (Rust)

human hash provides human-readable representations of digests.

This is a Rustlang port of Zachary Voase's humanhash for Python.

Usage

Use this library to generate human readable and reproducible hash summaries. Useful when looking at a list of UUIDs, or as a shorthand way to remember and select from hard to remember list.

Don't use this for security purposes.

Example

extern crate human_hash;
extern crate uuid;

use human_hash::humanize;
use uuid::Uuid;

fn main() {
    let my_uuid = Uuid::parse_str("7528880a986c40e78c38115e640da2a1").unwrap();
    let my_digest = humanize(&my_uuid, 4);

    println!("Original Hash: {}", my_uuid);
    println!("Digest:        {}", my_digest);
}

Output
