Project description

gxhash-py

Python bindings for GxHash, a blazingly fast and robust non-cryptographic hashing algorithm.

Features

  • Blazingly Fast: Minimal-overhead binding to leverage the full speed of GxHash.
  • Zero Python: Pure Rust backend with zero additional Python runtime overhead.
  • Fine-Grained Control: Build true multi-threaded or async hashing pipelines with GIL-free APIs.
  • Faster File Hashing: Hash files using memory-mapped I/O via Rust — 3x faster than Python's sequential I/O.
  • Async-Ready: Tokio-powered async hashing for fast and efficient concurrency.
  • Fully Typesafe: Predictable, clean API with complete type safety.

Installation

pip install gxhash

Usage

Hashing bytes.

from gxhash import GxHash32

def main():
    gxhash = GxHash32(seed=0)
    result = gxhash.hash(b"Hello, world!")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

Hashing bytes asynchronously.

from asyncio import run
from gxhash import GxHash128

async def main():
    gxhash = GxHash128(seed=0)
    result = await gxhash.hash_async(b"Hello, world!")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    run(main())

Hashing a file.

from gxhash import GxHash64

def main():
    gxhash = GxHash64(seed=0)
    file = open("path/to/file.dmg", "rb")
    result = gxhash.hash_file(file)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

Hashing a file asynchronously.

from asyncio import run
from gxhash import GxHash128

async def main():
    gxhash = GxHash128(seed=0)
    file = open("path/to/file.dmg", "rb")
    result = await gxhash.hash_file_async(file)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    run(main())
