Class SecureHashTextEncoder

java.lang.Object

org.modeshape.common.text.SecureHashTextEncoder

All Implemented Interfaces:

TextEncoder

public class SecureHashTextEncoder
extends Object
implements TextEncoder

A text encoder that performs a secure hash of the input text and returns that hash as the encoded text. This encoder can be configured to use different secure hash algorithms and to return a fixed number of characters from the hash.

Constructor Detail

SecureHashTextEncoder

public SecureHashTextEncoder(SecureHash.Algorithm algorithm)

Create an encoder that uses the supplied algorithm and returns only the supplied number of characters in the hash.

Parameters:

algorithm - the algorithm that should be used

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the algorithm is null

SecureHashTextEncoder

public SecureHashTextEncoder(SecureHash.Algorithm algorithm,
                     int maxLength)

Create an encoder that uses the supplied algorithm and returns only the supplied number of characters in the hash.

Parameters:

algorithm - the algorithm that should be used

maxLength - the maximumLength, or a non-positive number (or Integer.MAX_VALUE) if the full hash should be used

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the algorithm is null

Method Detail

getMaxLength

public int getMaxLength()

Get the maximum length of the encoded string, or Integer.MAX_VALUE if there is no maximum.

Returns:

the maximum encoded string length; always positive

getAlgorithm

public SecureHash.Algorithm getAlgorithm()

Return the secure hash algorithm used by this encoder.

Returns:

the algorithm; never null

encode

public String encode(String text)

Returns the encoded version of a string.

Specified by:

encode in interface TextEncoder

Parameters:

text - the text with characters that are to be encoded.

Returns:

the text with the characters encoded as required, or null if the supplied text is null
