It supports buffers, too

var fs = require('fs');
var md5 = require('md5');

fs.readFile('example.txt', function(err, buf) {


console.log(md5(buf));
});

Versions
Before version 2.0.0 there were two packages called md5 on npm, one lowercase, one
uppercase (the one you're looking at). As of version 2.0.0, all new versions of this module
will go to lowercase md5 on npm. To use the correct version, users of this module will
have to change their code from require('MD5') to require('md5') if they want to
use versions >= 2.0.0.

Credits
This package is based on the work of Jeff Mott, who did a pure JS implementation of the
MD5 algorithm that was published by Ronald L. Rivest in 1991. I needed a npm package of
the algorithm, so I used Jeff’s implementation for this package. The original
implementation can be found in the CryptoJS project.
