QUESTION
I'm a newbie in this field and am trying to learn a bit about how to write cryptographic hash functions.
To get some hands-on, I tried updating the PySHA2 algorithm for Python 3.6 and up (the original version doesn't work on Python 2.5+ and the author says he won't fix this). I don't intend to use this algorithm for any work, just coding this for the sake of knowledge.
I've reached this far:

Here are my last two comments that pointed you in the right direction:
So generally you try and take one 128 byte block from the binary message, update the hash state using the information in that block, then move to the next one until you have a partial or 0 byte block. That block you need to pad & add size indication (in bits) and process. If you've not enough space for the padding / size indication then you need yet another block consisting entirely of padding and the size indication. If you read carefully, then you always process at least one block.

Hmm, it is already in
sha_backend_digest
(the0x80
followed by zero bytes and the length which is input size * 8(_counter << 3)
.
But of course you do need to perform that and not skip any step.

Install pysha2
You can use pysha2 like any standard Python library. You will need to make sure that you have a development environment consisting of a Python distribution including header files, a compiler, pip, and git installed. Make sure that your pip, setuptools, and wheel are up to date. When using pip it is generally recommended to install packages in a virtual environment to avoid changes to the system.
