How to replicate hash_hmac('sha256', $key, $secret_key) function in Swift 4?

Question

I\'ve tried generating the hash_hmac(\'sha256\', $key, $secret_key) php function equivalent in Swift 4 without success, after using libraries like CommonCrypto, CryptoSwift.

Answer 1

Swift 3/4:

HMAC with MD5, SHA1, SHA224, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512 (Swift 3)

These functions will hash either String or Data input with one of eight cryptographic hash algorithms.

The name parameter specifies the hash function name as a String Supported functions are MD5, SHA1, SHA224, SHA256, SHA384 and SHA512

This example requires Common Crypto
It is necessary to have a bridging header to the project:
#import
Add the Security.framework to the project.

These functions takes a hash name, message to be hashed, a key and return a digest:

---

hashName: name of a hash function as String  
message:  message as Data  
key:      key as Data  
returns:  digest as Data  

func hmac(hashName:String, message:Data, key:Data) -> Data? {
    let algos = ["SHA1":   (kCCHmacAlgSHA1,   CC_SHA1_DIGEST_LENGTH),
                 "MD5":    (kCCHmacAlgMD5,    CC_MD5_DIGEST_LENGTH),
                 "SHA224": (kCCHmacAlgSHA224, CC_SHA224_DIGEST_LENGTH),
                 "SHA256": (kCCHmacAlgSHA256, CC_SHA256_DIGEST_LENGTH),
                 "SHA384": (kCCHmacAlgSHA384, CC_SHA384_DIGEST_LENGTH),
                 "SHA512": (kCCHmacAlgSHA512, CC_SHA512_DIGEST_LENGTH)]
    guard let (hashAlgorithm, length) = algos[hashName]  else { return nil }
    var macData = Data(count: Int(length))

    macData.withUnsafeMutableBytes {macBytes in
        message.withUnsafeBytes {messageBytes in
            key.withUnsafeBytes {keyBytes in
                CCHmac(CCHmacAlgorithm(hashAlgorithm),
                       keyBytes,     key.count,
                       messageBytes, message.count,
                       macBytes)
            }
        }
    }
    return macData

}

hashName: name of a hash function as String
message:  message as String
key:      key as String
returns:  digest as Data

func hmac(hashName:String, message:String, key:String) -> Data? {
    let messageData = message.data(using:.utf8)!
    let keyData = key.data(using:.utf8)!
    return hmac(hashName:hashName, message:messageData, key:keyData)
}

---

hashName: name of a hash function as String  
message:  message as String  
key:      key as Data  
returns:  digest as Data  

func hmac(hashName:String, message:String, key:Data) -> Data? {
    let messageData = message.data(using:.utf8)!
    return hmac(hashName:hashName, message:messageData, key:key)
}

// Examples

let clearString = "clearData0123456"
let keyString   = "keyData8901234562"
let clearData   = clearString.data(using:.utf8)!
let keyData     = keyString.data(using:.utf8)!
print("clearString: \(clearString)")
print("keyString:   \(keyString)")
print("clearData: \(clearData as NSData)")
print("keyData:   \(keyData as NSData)")

let hmacData1 = hmac(hashName:"SHA1", message:clearData, key:keyData)
print("hmacData1: \(hmacData1! as NSData)")

let hmacData2 = hmac(hashName:"SHA1", message:clearString, key:keyString)
print("hmacData2: \(hmacData2! as NSData)")

let hmacData3 = hmac(hashName:"SHA1", message:clearString, key:keyData)
print("hmacData3: \(hmacData3! as NSData)")

Output:

clearString: clearData0123456
keyString:   keyData8901234562
clearData: <636c6561 72446174 61303132 33343536>
keyData:   <6b657944 61746138 39303132 33343536 32>
