sha1

  • We use the Digest::SHA1 class to build the equivalent cryptographic hash to PHP’s sha1 function. This works the same as the Digest::MD5 class mentioned in md5, and needs to require the Digest library using require "digest".

    PHP

    print sha1("my string");
// => e19343e6c6c76f8f634a685eba7c0880648b1389

    Ruby

    require "digest"
 
print Digest::SHA1.hexdigest("my string")
# => e19343e6c6c76f8f634a685eba7c0880648b1389
