In my node.js app I would like to upload a file and calculate the sha1 .
I tried the following :
export function calculateHash(file, type){
const reader = new FileReader();
var hash = crypto.createHash('sha1');
hash.setEncoding('hex');
const testfile = reader.readAsDataURL(file);
hash.write(testfile);
hash.end();
var sha1sum = hash.read();
console.log(sha1sum);
// fd.on((end) => {
// hash.end();
// const test = hash.read();
// });
}
The file is blob from selecting a file with a file upload button on my website.
How can I calculate the sha1 hash?
