1.0.1 • Public • Published

node-sha1 Build Status

Provides you with a convenient sha1 function that uses Node's crypto module under the hood.

Install

npm install node-sha1 --save

Usage

var sha1 = require('node-sha1');
sha1('Hello World!'); # 2ef7bde608ce5404e97d5f042f95f89f1c232871

API

sha1(what, callback)

what

Can be a string, buffer, or even a stream (stream requires a callback).

If what is a string, or a buffer the hash will be returned, if a callback is registered it will also be called with the resulting hash.

If what is a stream, it will throw if a callback is not registered. Otherwise it will call the callback with the resulting hash.

callback(err, hash)

err any errors that occurred, or undefined if no errors occurred. hash is the resulting hash. If a callback is registered it will be called with the resulting hash regardless if a stream, string, or buffer is used.

Examples

Use with strings

var sha1 = require('node-sha1');
sha1('Hello World!'); # 2ef7bde608ce5404e97d5f042f95f89f1c232871

Use with buffers

var sha1 = require('node-sha1');
var buffer = new Buffer('Hello World!');
sha1(buffer); # 2ef7bde608ce5404e97d5f042f95f89f1c232871

Use with streams

var sha1 = require('node-sha1');
 
util.inherits(FakeStream, stream.Readable);
 
function FakeStream() {
  this._finished = false;
  stream.Readable.call(this);
}
 
FakeStream.prototype._read = function() {
  if (this._finished) {
    this.push(null);
    return;
  }
  this._finished = true;
  this.push('Hello World!');
};
 
var fakeStream = new FakeStream();
sha1(fakeStream, function(err, hash) {
  # hash = 2ef7bde608ce5404e97d5f042f95f89f1c232871
})
