| Node style `SHA` on pure JavaScript. |
| |
| ```js |
| var shajs = require('sha.js') |
| |
| console.log(shajs('sha256').update('42').digest('hex')) |
| // => 73475cb40a568e8da8a045ced110137e159f890ac4da883b6b17dc651b3a8049 |
| console.log(new shajs.sha256().update('42').digest('hex')) |
| // => 73475cb40a568e8da8a045ced110137e159f890ac4da883b6b17dc651b3a8049 |
| |
| var sha256stream = shajs('sha256') |
| sha256stream.end('42') |
| console.log(sha256stream.read().toString('hex')) |
| // => 73475cb40a568e8da8a045ced110137e159f890ac4da883b6b17dc651b3a8049 |

| ## supported hashes |
| `sha.js` currently implements: |
| |
| - SHA (SHA-0) -- **legacy, do not use in new systems** |
| - SHA-1 -- **legacy, do not use in new systems** |
| - SHA-224 |
| - SHA-256 |
| - SHA-384 |
| - SHA-512 |
| |
| |
| ## Not an actual stream |
| Note, this doesn't actually implement a stream, but wrapping this in a stream is trivial. |
| It does update incrementally, so you can hash things larger than RAM, as it uses a constant amount of memory (except when using base64 or utf8 encoding, see code comments). |
