### Functions

computeHash | `abstract fun computeHash(password: String, user: User): String` Compute the hashed password given the unhashed password and the user
getSalt | `abstract fun getSalt(user: User): String` Retrieve the salt. The source of the salt can be the external salt or the propriate column of the given user, depending on the defined HashSaltStyle
getSaltStyle | `abstract fun getSaltStyle(): HashSaltStyle` Get the defined HashSaltStyle of the current instance
getStoredPwd | `abstract fun getStoredPwd(user: User): String` Retrieve the password from the user, or as clear text or as hashed version, depending on the definition
setAlgorithm | `abstract fun setAlgorithm(algorithm: HashAlgorithm): Unit` Allows the selection of the hashing algorithm.
setExternalSalt | `abstract fun setExternalSalt(salt: String): Unit` Set an external salt. This method should be used in case of `HashSaltStyle#EXTERNAL`
setSaltStyle | `abstract fun setSaltStyle(saltStyle: HashSaltStyle): Unit` Set the saltstyle as defined by HashSaltStyle.
