# Node hexdigest

Module to generate the hexdigest of a file.

## Installation

```
npm install --save[-dev] hexdigest
```

## Usage

```js
var hexdigest = require('hexdigest');

hexdigest('myfile.jpg', 'sha1', function(err, digest) {
if (!err) {
console.log(digest);
}
});
```

Algorithms are the ones supported by the version of OpenSSL on the platform. Examples are `'sha1'`, `'md5'`, `'sha256'`, `'sha512'`, etc. On recent releases, `openssl list-message-digest-algorithms` will display the available digest algorithms.
