Node.js wrapper for the ssdeep fuzzy hashing library.

## Installation

You will need `libfuzzy` installed. All major Linux distributions have it available as a package:

```

sudo apt-get install libfuzzy-dev

```

You can also install it from [sources](http://ssdeep.sourceforge.net/#download).

Then, install the Node.js wrapper:

```

npm install ssdeep

```

## Examples

To compute a fuzzy hash:

```node

var hash = ssdeep.hash('text to hash');

```

To compute the fuzzy hash of a file:

```node

var hash = ssdeep.hash_from_file('file_to_hash.txt');

```

To compare two fuzzy hashes:

```node

var score = ssdeep.compare(hash1, hash2);

```
