hmac - Is there any function for creating Hmac256 string in android?

Question

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.

Answer 1

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.
