The type `AuthCxt` is an instance of the -- class `Memory` and hence any IO action that requires a `AuthCxt` as -- argument can be run using the `withMemory` combinator. -- -- If the entire input is with you either as a file or a string, the -- `auth` and `authFile` is a much more high level interface and -- should be preferred. -- | The authentication context for incremental computation of auth -- tag. type AuthCxt = Auth.AuthCxt -- | Prepare the context to (re)start a session of incremental -- processing. startAuth :: KnownNat n => Key Auth -- ^ The key to be used -> AuthCxt n -> IO () startAuth = Auth.startAuth -- | Add some more data into the context, in this case the entirety of -- the byte source src. updateAuth :: (KnownNat n, ByteSource src) => src -> AuthCxt n -> IO () updateAuth = Auth.updateAuth -- | Finalise the context to get hold of the digest. finaliseAuth :: KnownNat n => AuthCxt n -> IO Auth finaliseAuth = Auth.finaliseAuth -- $specific-auth$ -- -- If interoperability with other applications demands the use of a -- specific primitive for message authentication, you can use one of -- these more specific modules. -- -- * Raaz.Auth.Blake2b -- * Raaz.Auth.Blake2s
