util.hashes API
Provides utility functions for hashing strings according to several popular algorithms.
The algorithms currently supported are:
- MD5
- SHA1
- SHA256
Usage
local hashes = require "util.hashes";
Reference
hashes.md5(string, hex)
hashes.sha1(string, hex)
hashes.sha256(string, hex)
All of the above functions return a hash string according to the chosen algorithm. By default the raw binary form is returned, most often you will want to pass true as the second parameter to get a nice hex-encoded string.
