(PHP 5 >= 5.1.2, PHP 7, PECL hash >= 1.1)
hash_hmac — Generate a keyed hash value using the HMAC method
Description
hash_hmac ( string $algo
, string $data
, string $key
[, bool $raw_output
= FALSE
] ) : string
Parameters
algo
Name of selected hashing algorithm (i.e. "md5", "sha256", "haval160,4", etc..) See hash_hmac_algos() for a list of supported algorithms.
data
Message to be hashed.
key
Shared secret key used for generating the HMAC variant of the message digest.
raw_output
When set to TRUE
, outputs raw binary data.FALSE
outputs lowercase hexits.
Return Values
Returns a string containing the calculated message digest as lowercase hexits unless raw_output
is set to true in which case the raw binary representation of the message digest is returned. Returns FALSE
when algo
is unknown or is a non-cryptographic hash function.
