# @vates/json-hash [](https://npmjs.org/package/@vates/json-hash)  [](https://bundlephobia.com/result?p=@vates/json-hash) [](https://npmjs.org/package/@vates/json-hash) > Compute a stable hash from a JSON-ifiable value ## Install Installation of the [npm package](https://npmjs.org/package/@vates/json-hash): ```sh npm install --save @vates/json-hash ``` ## Usage The use for this librariy is to create a composite key from a JSON value, ignoring objects identity and properties order. The hash algorithm used is intended to be fast and with low collisions and is not guaranteed to be be secure. The hash is encoded using [Base64 URL](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base64#URL_applications) to make it easy to use in URLs and filenames. ```js import { jsonHash } from '@vates/json-hash' console.log(jsonHash('foo')) // → "siEyldVkkW-JpqQkVVZ8h8P0gPzXocFeIg8X1xaaeQs" // order of properties is ignored console.log(jsonHash({ foo: 0, bar: 1 })) // → "JckoRSMIBjNlgEWIXhgpBOuyLQYqABZqvf1ccb3BPg0" console.log(jsonHash({ bar: 1, foo: 0 })) // → "JckoRSMIBjNlgEWIXhgpBOuyLQYqABZqvf1ccb3BPg0" ``` ## Contributions Contributions are _very_ welcomed, either on the documentation or on the code.
