local success = sb:load_file("qa_data/itida/EReceipt_ex.json", "utf-8")
if not success then
    print("Failed to load input file.")
    return
end

-- Convert the contents of sb to the ITIDA canonical form.

sb:encode("itida", "utf-8")

-- Get the lowercase hex encoded SHA256 hash of the canonicalized JSON
-- (always use utf-8)
local uuid = sb:get_hash("sha256", "hex_lower", "utf-8")
print("eInvoicing UUID = " .. uuid)
