|
Creates a hash for a value using the [SHA-256](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SHA-2) algorithm.
|
|
Returns a promise.
|
|
|
|
- Use the [SubtleCrypto](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/SubtleCrypto) API to create a hash for the given value.
|
|
- Create a new `TextEncoder` and use it to encode `val`, passing its value to `SubtleCrypto.digest()` to generate a digest of the given data.
|
|
- Use `DataView.prototype.getUint32()` to read data from the resolved `ArrayBuffer`.
|
|
- Add the data to an array using `Array.prototype.push()` after converting it to its hexadecimal representation using `Number.prototype.toString(16)`.
|
|
- Finally, use `Array.prototype.join()` to combine values in the array of `hexes` into a string.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const hashBrowser = val =>
|
|
crypto.subtle
|
|
.digest('SHA-256', new TextEncoder('utf-8').encode(val))
|
|
.then(h => {
|
|
let hexes = [],
|
|
view = new DataView(h);
|
|
for (let i = 0; i < view.byteLength; i += 4)
|
|
hexes.push(('00000000' + view.getUint32(i).toString(16)).slice(-8));
|
|
return hexes.join('');
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
hashBrowser(
|
|
JSON.stringify({ a: 'a', b: [1, 2, 3, 4], foo: { c: 'bar' } })
|
|
).then(console.log);
|
|
// '04aa106279f5977f59f9067fa9712afc4aedc6f5862a8defc34552d8c7206393'
