cla/digest - String based encoder

In Clarive digest method allows to encode any string to generate a unique ID (md5 or sha1) using one of the following methods:

digest.markdown5()

MD5 options creates a 32 digits encoded string using the MD5 hash generator.

This method uses always the same algorithm to generate the strings so for the same entry, user always obtain the same encoded string.

var digest = require("cla/digest");
var string = "123";

digest.md5(string);

digest.sha1()

SHA1 options creates a 40 digits encoded string using the SHA1 hash generator.

This method uses always the same algorithm to generate the strings so for the same entry, user always obtain the same encoded string.

var digest = require("cla/digest");
var string = "123";

digest.sha1(string);
