rust-multihash is an implementation of the multihash algorithm that allows for multiple different hash algorithms to be contained in the same format. This makes it extensible as new hashing algorithms are added.

To use, add rust-multihash= "*" to your Cargo.toml file.

To get a SHA2-256 hash of a string:

use multihash::{HashType, multihash};

let hash = multihash(HashType::SHA2256, "Hello World".to_vec());
