sha1-uint8array


Fast SHA-1 digest hash based on Uint8Array, pure JavaScript.

SYNOPSIS

``js
import {createHash} from "sha1-uint8array";

const text = "";
const hex = createHash().update(text).digest("hex");
// => "da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709"

const data = new Uint8Array(0);
const hash = createHash().update(data).digest();
// =>
`

See TypeScript declaration
sha1-uint8array.d.ts
for detail.

COMMONJS

Both ES Modules and CommonJS supported.

`js
const {createHash} = require("sha1-uint8array");
`

COMPATIBILITY

It has a better compatibility with Node.js's crypto module in its smaller footprint.

|module|string IN|Uint8Array IN|TypedArray IN|hex OUT|Uint8Array OUT|minified|
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|crypto|✅ OK|✅ OK|✅ OK|✅ OK|✅ OK|-|
|sha1-uint8array|✅ OK|✅ OK|✅ OK|✅ OK|✅ OK|3KB|
|hash.js|✅ OK|✅ OK|🚫 NO|✅ OK|✅ OK|17KB|
|jssha|✅ OK|✅ OK|🚫 NO|✅ OK|✅ OK|10KB|
|crypto-js|✅ OK|🚫 NO|🚫 NO|✅ OK|🚫 NO|109KB|
|jshashes|✅ OK|🚫 NO|🚫 NO|✅ OK|🚫 NO|23KB|
|sha.js|✅ OK|✅ OK|🚫 NO|✅ OK|✅ OK|26KB|
|create-hash|✅ OK|✅ OK|🚫 NO|✅ OK|✅ OK|95KB|
|tiny-sha1|🚫 NO|✅ OK|🚫 NO|✅ OK|🚫 NO|2KB|
|crypto.subtle.digest()|🚫 NO|✅ OK|✅ OK|🚫 NO|🚫 NO|-|

The W3C standard crypto.subtle.digest() API has a different interface which
returns
Promise.

SPEED

It runs well both on Node.js and browsers.
Node.js's native crypto module definitely runs faster than any others on Node.js, though.

|module|version|node.js V14|Chrome 87|Safari 14|
|---|---|---|---|---|
|crypto|-|69ms 👍|N/A|N/A|
|sha1-uint8array|0.10.0|251ms|352ms 👍|202ms 👍|
|hash.js|1.1.7|500ms|619ms|882ms|
|jssha|3.2.0|720ms|799ms|747ms|
|crypto-js|4.0.0|765ms|842ms|991ms|
|jshashes|1.0.8|674ms|1,498ms|721ms|
|sha.js|2.4.11|361ms|964ms|3,487ms|

The benchmark above shows milliseconds for 20,000 times of
SHA-1 hex hash digest generation for approx 1KB string as input.
It is tested on macOS 10.15.7 Intel Core i7 3.2GHz.
You could run the benchmark as below.

`sh
git clone https://github.com/kawanet/sha1-uint8array.git
cd sha1-uint8array
npm install
npm run build

run the benchmark on Node.js

REPEAT=10000 ./node_modules/.bin/mocha test/99.benchmark.js

run tests and the benchmark on browser

make -C browser
open browser/test.html
`

WEB BROWSERS

- The minified build of the library is also available for Web browsers via
jsDelivr CDN.
- https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/sha1-uint8array/dist/sha1-uint8array.min.js
- Live Demo https://kawanet.github.io/sha1-uint8array/

`

BROWSERIFY

It works great with
browserify
via browser property of package.json of your app if you needs
crypto.createHash("sha1").update(data).digest("hex"); syntax only.

`json
{
"browser": {
"crypto": "sha1-uint8array/dist/sha1-uint8array.min.js"
},
"devDependencies": {
"browserify": "^17.0.0",
"sha1-uint8array": "^0.10.0"
}
}
`

It costs only less than 3KB, whereas browserify's default crypto polyfill
costs more than 300KB huge even after minified.

`js
// On Node.js, this loads Node.js's native crypto module which is faster.
// On browsers, this uses sha1-uint8array.min.js which is small and fast.
const crypto = require("crypto");

const hash = crypto.createHash("sha1").update("").digest("hex");
// => "da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709"
