Signature de la fonction new

def new(key, msg=None, digestmod='') 

Description

help(hmac.new)

Create a new hashing object and return it.

    key: bytes or buffer, The starting key for the hash.
    msg: bytes or buffer, Initial input for the hash, or None.
    digestmod: A hash name suitable for hashlib.new(). *OR*
               A hashlib constructor returning a new hash object. *OR*
               A module supporting PEP 247.

               Required as of 3.8, despite its position after the optional
               msg argument.  Passing it as a keyword argument is
               recommended, though not required for legacy API reasons.

    You can now feed arbitrary bytes into the object using its update()
    method, and can ask for the hash value at any time by calling its digest()
    or hexdigest() methods.
