ruby核心库中未包含md5之类的功能,不过在其标准库digest中可以方便的使用该功能:
= Digest
(from ruby core)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This module provides a framework for message digest libraries.
You may want to look at OpenSSL::Digest as it supports more algorithms.
A cryptographic hash function is a procedure that takes data and returns a
fixed bit string: the hash value, also known as digest. Hash
functions are also called one-way functions, it is easy to compute a digest
from a message, but it is infeasible to generate a message from a digest.
== Examples
require 'digest'
# Compute a complete digest
Digest::SHA256.digest 'message' #=> "\xABS\n\x13\xE4Y..."
sha256 = Digest::SHA256.new
sha256.digest 'message' #=> "\xABS\n\x13\xE4Y..."
# Other encoding formats
Digest::SHA256.hexdigest 'message' #=> "ab530a13e459..."
Digest::SHA256.base64digest 'message' #=> "q1MKE+RZFJgr..."
# Compute digest by chunks
md5 = Digest::MD5.new
md5.update 'message1'
md5 << 'message2' # << is an alias for update
md5.hexdigest #=> "94af09c09bb9..."
# Compute digest for a file
sha256 = Digest::SHA256.file 'testfile'
sha256.hexdigest
Additionally digests can be encoded in "bubble babble" format as a sequence of
consonants and vowels which is more recognizable and comparable than a
hexadecimal digest.
require 'digest/bubblebabble'
Digest::SHA256.bubblebabble 'message' #=> "xopoh-fedac-fenyh-..."
See the bubble babble specification at

.
== Digest algorithms
Different digest algorithms (or hash functions) are available:
HMAC:
See FIPS PUB 198 The Keyed-Hash Message Authentication Code (HMAC).
RIPEMD-160:
As Digest::RMD160. See
http://homes.esat.kuleuven.be/~bosselae/ripemd160.html.
SHA1:
See FIPS 180 Secure Hash Standard.
SHA2 family:
See FIPS 180 Secure Hash Standard which defines the following algorithms:
* SHA512
* SHA384
* SHA256
