Duplicate Java HMAC-SHA1 using Chilkat

See more Encryption Examples

This example uses Chilkat to produce the same results as this Java code:
import org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64;
import org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Hex;

import javax.crypto.Mac;
import javax.crypto.spec.SecretKeySpec;
import java.security.InvalidKeyException;
import java.security.Key;
import java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException;

public void hmacSignatureExample() throws NoSuchAlgorithmException,
InvalidKeyException {

final String method = "POST";
final Long epoch = 1456765639015L; // Hardcoding for this example
final String uri = "/api/v5/policy/1234567890";
final String newline = "\n";

final String privateKey = "qwfvUeVRWAwyjlAzGivefFPTg+m6QtBPmDVv7Ra
/u7K3UuVVRhrZ/qc8EPh8IGJatuxsWD4EX+D9qE/eVvLTpw==";
final String publicKey = "16baedbe244b6c063968850716afb319a";

// Prepare the signature
final String plainText = method + newline + epoch + newline + uri + newline;

// Hash the plaintext with the private key
final byte[] keyBytes = privateKey.getBytes();
final Key key = new SecretKeySpec(keyBytes, 0, keyBytes.length, "HmacSHA1");
final Mac mac = Mac.getInstance("HmacSHA1");
mac.init(key);
String signatureHash = new String(Hex.encodeHex(mac.doFinal(plainText.
getBytes())));

// Prefix with public key
signatureHash = publicKey + ":" + signatureHash;

// Base64 encode to produce AUTHORIZATION
final String authorization = new String(Base64.encodeBase64(signatureHash.
getBytes()));
}
