Crypt::Mac::BLAKE2s - Message authentication code BLAKE2s MAC (RFC 7693)

       Provides an interface to the BLAKE2s message authentication code (MAC) algorithm.

       Nothing is exported by default.

       You can export selected functions:

         use Crypt::Mac::BLAKE2s qw(blake2s blake2s_hex );

       Or all of them at once:

         use Crypt::Mac::BLAKE2s ':all';

blake2s
       Logically joins all arguments into a single string, and returns its BLAKE2s message authentication code
       encoded as a binary string.

        $blake2s_raw = blake2s($size, $key, 'data buffer');
        #or
        $blake2s_raw = blake2s($size, $key, 'any data', 'more data', 'even more data');

   blake2s_hex
       Logically joins all arguments into a single string, and returns its BLAKE2s message authentication code
       encoded as a hexadecimal string.

        $blake2s_hex = blake2s_hex($size, $key, 'data buffer');
        #or
        $blake2s_hex = blake2s_hex($size, $key, 'any data', 'more data', 'even more data');

   blake2s_b64
       Logically joins all arguments into a single string, and returns its BLAKE2s message authentication code
       encoded as a Base64 string.

        $blake2s_b64 = blake2s_b64($size, $key, 'data buffer');
        #or
        $blake2s_b64 = blake2s_b64($size, $key, 'any data', 'more data', 'even more data');

   blake2s_b64u
       Logically joins all arguments into a single string, and returns its BLAKE2s message authentication code
       encoded as a Base64 URL Safe string (see RFC 4648 section 5).

        $blake2s_b64url = blake2s_b64u($size, $key, 'data buffer');
        #or
        $blake2s_b64url = blake2s_b64u($size, $key, 'any data', 'more data', 'even more data');

new
        $d = Crypt::Mac::BLAKE2s->new($size, $key);

   clone
        $d->clone();

   reset
        $d->reset();

   add
        $d->add('any data');
        #or
        $d->add('any data', 'more data', 'even more data');

   addfile
        $d->addfile('filename.dat');
        #or
        $d->addfile(*FILEHANDLE);

   mac
        $result_raw = $d->mac();

   hexmac
        $result_hex = $d->hexmac();

   b64mac
        $result_b64 = $d->b64mac();

   b64umac
        $result_b64url = $d->b64umac();

          ### Functional interface:
          use Crypt::Mac::BLAKE2s qw( blake2s blake2s_hex );

          # calculate MAC from string/buffer
          $blake2s_raw  = blake2s($size, $key, 'data buffer');
          $blake2s_hex  = blake2s_hex($size, $key, 'data buffer');
          $blake2s_b64  = blake2s_b64($size, $key, 'data buffer');
          $blake2s_b64u = blake2s_b64u($size, $key, 'data buffer');

          ### OO interface:
          use Crypt::Mac::BLAKE2s;

          $d = Crypt::Mac::BLAKE2s->new($size, $key);
          $d->add('any data');
          $d->addfile('filename.dat');
          $d->addfile(*FILEHANDLE);
          $result_raw  = $d->mac;     # raw bytes
          $result_hex  = $d->hexmac;  # hexadecimal form
          $result_b64  = $d->b64mac;  # Base64 form
          $result_b64u = $d->b64umac; # Base64 URL Safe form
