MD5 Hash a String (such as a password string)

See more Encryption Examples

Demonstrates how to MD5 hash a string to get MD5 hash in hex encoded string representation. (The MD5 hash is 16 bytes, and therefore a hex encoded MD5 hash would be 32 chars.)

import { Crypt2 } from '@chilkat/react-native'

function chilkatExample() {
  const password = 'myPassword';

  const crypt = new Crypt2();
  crypt.hashAlgorithm = 'md5';
  crypt.encodingMode = 'hex';
  const md5Hex = crypt.hashStringENC(password);
  console.log(`MD5 hash (as a hex string) = ${md5Hex}`);

  // The hex string will be uppercase.  Your application
  // can easily convert it to lowercase if desired via non-Chilkat means..
