===============

Generate a fingerprint given an SSH public key (without `ssh-keygen` or external dependencies)

Install

-------

    npm install ssh-fingerprint

Example

-------

``` js

var fs = require('fs');

var fingerprint = require('ssh-fingerprint');

var publickey = fs.readFileSync('id_rsa.pub', 'utf-8');

console.log('fingerprint => %s', fingerprint(publickey));

```

yields

```

fingerprint => 64:c4:c5:c9:7e:91:91:db:e3:35:ca:de:be:84:2e:b0

```

Usage

-----

### `fingerprint(pubkey, algorithm = 'md5');`

Parameters

- `pubkey`: A public key string, typically read from `id_rsa.pub`

- `algorithm`: Hashing algorithm to use, defaults to `md5` (OpenSSH Standard)

Returns

- The stringified fingerprint, same as `ssh-keygen -fl id_rsa.pub`
