object-hash

Generate hashes from objects and values in node and the browser. Uses node.js crypto module for hashing. Supports SHA1 and many others (depending on the platform) as well as custom streams (e.g. CRC32).

• Hash values of any type.
• Supports a keys only option for grouping similar objects with different values.

var hash = require('object-hash');

hash({foo: 'bar'}) // => '67b69634f9880a282c14a0f0cb7ba20cf5d677e9'
hash([1, 2, 2.718, 3.14159]) // => '136b9b88375971dff9f1af09d7356e3e04281951'

Versioning Disclaimer

Starting with version 1.1.8 (released April 2017), new versions will consider the exact returned hash part of the API contract, i.e. changes that will affect hash values will be considered semver-major. Previous versions may violate that expectation.

For more information, see this discussion.
