# crypto-md5

There are several md5 modules on npm, but none of them use the `crypto` node module.

Researching the performance impact of one vs another is tedious, and I just wanted to

use the core one without having to duplicate code all the time so I just implemented

this function as a separate module.

## Usage

    npm install --save crypto-md5

## API

### md5(data, digest)

  Returns a base64 md5 hash of the buffer or string. Can return an hex digest.

* `data`: buffer or string to hash

* `digest`: optional digest type. Can be `base64` (default) or `hex`

```js

var md5 = require('md5');

md5('foobar');

// OFj2IjCsPJFfMAxmQxLGPw==

md5('foobar', 'hex');

// 3858f62230ac3c915f300c664312c63f

```
