- .SH NAME
- libssh2_hostkey_hash - return a hash of the remote host's key
- .SH SYNOPSIS
- #include <libssh2.h>
-
- const char *
- libssh2_hostkey_hash(LIBSSH2_SESSION *session, int hash_type);
-
- .SH DESCRIPTION
- \fIsession\fP - Session instance as returned by
- .BR libssh2_session_init_ex(3)
-
- \fIhash_type\fP - One of: \fBLIBSSH2_HOSTKEY_HASH_MD5\fP,
- \fBLIBSSH2_HOSTKEY_HASH_SHA1\fP or \fBLIBSSH2_HOSTKEY_HASH_SHA256\fP.
-
- Returns the computed digest of the remote system's hostkey. The length of
- the returned string is hash_type specific (e.g. 16 bytes for MD5,
- 20 bytes for SHA1, 32 bytes for SHA256).
- .SH RETURN VALUE
- Computed hostkey hash value, or NULL if the information is not available
- (either the session has not yet been started up, or the requested hash
- algorithm was not available). The hash consists of raw binary bytes, not hex
- digits, so it is not directly printable.
