Is there any function for creating Hmac256 string in android ? I am using php as my back end for my android application, in php we can create hmac256 string using the php function hash_hmac () [ ref ] is there any function like this in Android
Please help me.
Calculate the message digest with the hashing algorithm HMAC-SHA256 in the Android platform:
private void generateHashWithHmac256(String message, String key) {
try {
final String hashingAlgorithm = "HmacSHA256"; //or "HmacSHA1", "HmacSHA512"
byte[] bytes = hmac(hashingAlgorithm, key.getBytes(), message.getBytes());
final String messageDigest = bytesToHex(bytes);
Log.i(TAG, "message digest: " + messageDigest);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static byte[] hmac(String algorithm, byte[] key, byte[] message) throws NoSuchAlgorithmException, InvalidKeyException {
Mac mac = Mac.getInstance(algorithm);
mac.init(new SecretKeySpec(key, algorithm));
return mac.doFinal(message);
}
public static String bytesToHex(byte[] bytes) {
final char[] hexArray = "0123456789abcdef".toCharArray();
char[] hexChars = new char[bytes.length * 2];
for (int j = 0, v; j < bytes.length; j++) {
v = bytes[j] & 0xFF;
hexChars[j * 2] = hexArray[v >>> 4];
hexChars[j * 2 + 1] = hexArray[v & 0x0F];
}
return new String(hexChars);
}
This approach does not require any external dependency.
