NOTE: This is a port of Gary Court's excellent work, to a commonJS module that can be easily included into a node.js project or the browser. I take no credit for the implementation. I am simply making it easier to use for others.
An optimized JavaScript implementation of the MurmurHash algorithms.
These algorithms take a JavaScript string (and a seed), and quickly create a non-cryptographic 32-bit hash from it. And by quick I mean sub-millisecond performance.
More information about these algorithms can be found at:
Install it in your browser:
<script type="text/javascript" src="murmurhash.js"></script>To support older browsers you need to use TextEncoder polyfill
or in node.js
npm install murmurhash
murmurhash = require('murmurhash')Both version 2 and 3 of the MurmurHash algorithm are supported:
// generates a v2 hash
murmurhash.v2("some input", "some seed value (optional)")
// generates a v3 hash
murmurhash.v3("some input", "some seed value (optional)")Copyright (c) 2020 Gary Court, Derek Perez
