Utilities - Crypto

The Crypto category provides functions that help with generating cryptographic hashes and creating unique identifiers. These functions are useful for ensuring data security and integrity in web and back-end applications.

Installation

To install the Crypto package, use one of the following commands:

npm install @utilify/crypto

yarn add @utilify/crypto

pnpm add @utilify/crypto

Import the functions into your project:

import { djb2, hash, randomUUID } from '@utilify/crypto';

const { djb2, hash, randomUUID } = require('@utilify/crypto');

Overview

djb2

function djb2(str: string): string;

Calculates the DJB2 hash of a string. The DJB2 algorithm is a fast and efficient way to generate a hash from a text input.

hash

async function hash(
  data: string | ArrayBuffer | DataView,
  algorithm: 'SHA-1' | 'SHA-256' | 'SHA-384' | 'SHA-512',
  output: 'hex' | 'base64' | 'buffer' = 'buffer'
): Promise<string | ArrayBuffer | undefined>;

Generates a cryptographic hash of the given data using the specified algorithm and output format.

randomUUID

function randomUUID(): string | undefined;

Generates a secure UUID using the browser's Web Crypto API. Returns undefined if the API is unavailable.
