Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

crypto-hash

Tiny hashing module that uses the native crypto API in Node.js and the browser

Useful when you want the same hashing API in all environments. My cat calls it isomorphic.

In Node.js it uses node:crypto, while in the browser it uses window.crypto.

The browser version is only ~300 bytes minified & gzipped.

When used in the browser, it must be in a secure context (HTTPS).

This package is for modern browsers. Internet Explorer is not supported.

Install

npm install crypto-hash

Usage

import {sha256} from 'crypto-hash';

console.log(await sha256('🦄'));
//=> '36bf255468003165652fe978eaaa8898e191664028475f83f506dabd95298efc'

API

sha1(input, options?)

sha256(input, options?)

sha384(input, options?)

sha512(input, options?)

Returns a Promise<string> with a Hex-encoded hash.

In Node.js, the operation is executed using worker_threads. A thread is lazily spawned on the first operation and lives until the end of the program execution. It's unrefed, so it won't keep the process alive.

SHA-1 is insecure and should not be used for anything sensitive.

input

Type: string ArrayBuffer ArrayBufferView

options

Type: object

outputFormat

Type: string
Values: 'hex' | 'buffer'
Default: 'hex'

Setting this to buffer makes it return an ArrayBuffer instead of a string.
