# MD5
|
||
|
||
[](http://travis-ci.org/pvorb/node-md5)
|
||
|
||
a JavaScript function for hashing messages with MD5.
|
||
|
||
**Warning:** This is the source repository for the npm package
|
||
[MD5](http://search.npmjs.org/#/MD5), not [md5](http://search.npmjs.org/#/md5).
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Installation
|
||
|
||
You can use this package on the server side as well as the client side.
|
||
|
||
### [Node.js](http://nodejs.org/):
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
npm install MD5
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
## API
|
||
|
||
~~~ javascript
|
||
md5(message)
|
||
~~~
|
||
|
||
* `message` -- `String` or `Buffer`
|
||
* returns `String`
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Usage

## Credits
|
||
|
||
This package is based on the work of Jeff Mott, who did a pure JS implementation
|
||
of the MD5 algorithm that was published by Ronald L. Rivest in 1991. I needed a
|
||
npm package of the algorithm, so I used Jeff’s implementation for this package.
|
||
The original implementation can be found in the
|
||
[CryptoJS](http://code.google.com/p/crypto-js/) project.
