# md5hex Thin wrapper around the crypto module that creates an MD5 hex digest of a given string or buffer ```js // Basic usage var hexHash = md5hex('A string you want to hash'); // (You can also pass in a buffer) // 'afb6e4ac5196aa6cddcfbd8fe26cf65b' // Optional second argument lets you trim the length var hexHash = md5hex('A string you want to hash', 6); // 'afb6e4' // Or you can give an options object as the second argument to add a salt var hexHash = md5hex('A string you want to prefix with a salt', {salt: 'MYSALT!'}) // Same as md5hex('MYSALT!' + 'A string you want to prefix with a salt') var hexHash = md5hex('A string you want to prefix with a salt', {saltPrefix: 'SALT!', saltSuffix: 'MORESALT!'}) // Same as md5hex('SALT!' + 'A string you want to prefix with a salt' + 'MORESALT!') // And control the length through the options object var hexHash = md5hex('A string you want a short hash of', {length: 6}); // '30540f' ```
