What is hash-it?

The hash-it npm package is a utility for creating unique hash values from JavaScript objects. It is particularly useful for creating hash keys for complex objects, ensuring that the same object will always produce the same hash value.

What are hash-it's main functionalities?

Hashing Objects

This feature allows you to generate a unique hash value for a given JavaScript object. The same object will always produce the same hash value, which is useful for caching or quick comparisons.

const { hash } = require('hash-it');
const obj = { a: 1, b: 2 };
const hashValue = hash(obj);
console.log(hashValue);

Hashing Arrays

This feature allows you to generate a unique hash value for an array. It ensures that the same array will always produce the same hash value, which can be useful for array comparisons or caching.

const { hash } = require('hash-it');
const arr = [1, 2, 3];
const hashValue = hash(arr);
console.log(hashValue);

Hashing Nested Structures

This feature allows you to generate a unique hash value for nested structures, including objects within objects and arrays within objects. It ensures consistency in hash values for complex data structures.

const { hash } = require('hash-it');
const nestedObj = { a: { b: 2 }, c: [1, 2, 3] };
const hashValue = hash(nestedObj);
console.log(hashValue);
