# md5-jkmyers

Joseph K. Myers' high performance (in fact, the fastest) MD5 implementation for npm, Bower, Component, etc.

[![Endorse on Coderwall](http://api.coderwall.com/andreaspizsa/endorsecount.png)](http://coderwall.com/andreaspizsa)

[![Built with Grunt](https://cdn.gruntjs.com/builtwith.png)](http://gruntjs.com/)

This MD5 implementation was written by [Joseph K. Myers](http://www.myersdaily.org/joseph/javascript/md5-text.html) and is currently the fastest according to [jsperf](http://jsperf.com/md5-shootout). I've wrapped it up as a universal module ([UMD](https://github.com/umdjs/umd)) for easy consumption with [Bower](https://github.com/bower/bower), [Component](https://github.com/component/component), npm, [RequireJS](https://github.com/jrburke/requirejs) ([AMD](https://github.com/amdjs/amdjs-api/wiki/AMD)), [CommonJS](http://wiki.commonjs.org/wiki/CommonJS), etc...

## Usage

The module exports a single function that takes one parameter:

```javascript

md5(String)

```

### On the Client

#### Bower

    bower install md5-jkmyers

#### Component

    component install md5-jkmyers

Then in your `html`, do

```html

 

 

   console.log(md5('hello, world!'));

 

```

 

### On the Server

#### node.js

Please be aware that node already comes with MD5 built in - see [here](http://stackoverflow.com/a/11869589/199263). Having said that, `md5-jkmyers`  might still be a good and fast alternative (please feel free to contribute perfomance testst):

    npm install md5-jkmyers

    

Then in your code do

    md5 = require('md5-jkmyers')

    md5('hello, world!')
