Generates hash for JSON objects.
// If you're not on babel use:
// require('babel/polyfill')
npm install json-hash
var assert = require('assert')
var hash = require('json-hash')
// hash.digest(any, options?)
assert.equal(hash.digest({foo:1,bar:1}), hash.digest({bar:1,foo:1}))
We're compatible with browserify by using a JavaScript implementation of SHA1.
If you want to use nodejs one, pass hash.digest(foo, { crypto: require('crypto') })
