# go-digest
[![GoDoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/opencontainers/go-digest?status.svg)](https://godoc.org/github.com/opencontainers/go-digest) [![Go Report Card](https://goreportcard.com/badge/github.com/opencontainers/go-digest)](https://goreportcard.com/report/github.com/opencontainers/go-digest) [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/opencontainers/go-digest.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/opencontainers/go-digest)
Common digest package used across the container ecosystem.
Please see the [godoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/opencontainers/go-digest) for more information.
# What is a digest?
A digest is just a hash.
The most common use case for a digest is to create a content
identifier for use in [Content Addressable Storage](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content-addressable_storage)
systems:
```go
id := digest.FromBytes([]byte("my content"))
```
In the example above, the id can be used to uniquely identify
the byte slice "my content". This allows two disparate applications
to agree on a verifiable identifier without having to trust one
another.
An identifying digest can be verified, as follows:
```go
if id != digest.FromBytes([]byte("my content")) {
return errors.New("the content has changed!")
}
```
A `Verifier` type can be used to handle cases where an `io.Reader`
makes more sense:
```go
rd := getContent()
verifier := id.Verifier()
io.Copy(verifier, rd)
if !verifier.Verified() {
return errors.New("the content has changed!")
}
```
Using [Merkle DAGs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merkle_tree), this
can power a rich, safe, content distribution system.
# Usage
While the [godoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/opencontainers/go-digest) is
considered the best resource, a few important items need to be called
out when using this package.
1. Make sure to import the hash implementations into your application
or the package will panic. You should have something like the
following in the main (or other entrypoint) of your application:
```go
import (
_ "crypto/sha256"
_ "crypto/sha512"
)
```
This may seem inconvenient but it allows you replace the hash
implementations with others, such as https://github.com/stevvooe/resumable.
2. Even though `digest.Digest` may be assemable as a string, _always_
verify your input with `digest.Parse` or use `Digest.Validate`
when accepting untrusted input. While there are measures to
avoid common problems, this will ensure you have valid digests
in the rest of your application.
# Stability
The Go API, at this stage, is considered stable, unless otherwise noted.
As always, before using a package export, read the [godoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/opencontainers/go-digest).
# Contributing
This package is considered fairly complete. It has been in production
in thousands (millions?) of deployments and is fairly battle-hardened.
New additions will be met with skepticism. If you think there is a
missing feature, please file a bug clearly describing the problem and
the alternatives you tried before submitting a PR.
