Generates hashes with or without an extra key/salt. This key defaults to the project identifier.
generate_hash(x, key = TRUE, bits = 256)
input, will be converted to character
key or salt. Use TRUE
(default) to use the project identifier that will be printed to the Console, or any character to use as key/salt, or use NULL
or FALSE
to not use a key.
number of bits, often one of: 224, 256, 384, 512
This function uses the openssl::sha2()
function for the hashing, but always returns a character vector.
