A Rust library for retrieving random data from (operating) system sources. It is
assumed that the system always provides high-quality cryptographically secure random
data, ideally backed by hardware entropy sources. This crate derives its name
from Linux's `getrandom` function, but is cross-platform, roughly supporting
the same set of platforms as Rust's `std` lib.
This is a low-level API. Most users should prefer using high-level random-number
library like [`rand`].
[`rand`]: https://crates.io/crates/rand
## Usage
Add this to your `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
[dependencies]
getrandom = "0.2"
```
Then invoke the `getrandom` function:
```rust
fn get_random_buf() -> Result<[u8; 32], getrandom::Error> {
let mut buf = [0u8; 32];
getrandom::getrandom(&mut buf)?;
Ok(buf)
}
```
For more information about supported targets, entropy sources, `no_std` targets,
crate features, WASM support and Custom RNGs see the
[`getrandom` documentation](https://docs.rs/getrandom/latest) and
[`getrandom::Error` documentation](https://docs.rs/getrandom/latest/getrandom/struct.Error.html).
## Minimum Supported Rust Version
This crate requires Rust 1.36.0 or later.
# License
The `getrandom` library is distributed under either of
* [Apache License, Version 2.0](LICENSE-APACHE)
* [MIT license](LICENSE-MIT)
at your option.
