createHMAC( algorithm, secret )

suggest edits

Creates a HMAC hashing object that can then be fed with data repeatedly, and from which you can extract a signed hash digest whenever you want.

ParameterTypeDescription
algorithmstringThe hashing algorithm to use. One of md4, md5, sha1, sha256, sha384, sha512, sha512_224, sha512_256 or ripemd160.
secretstring / ArrayBufferA shared secret used to sign the data.

Returns

TypeDescription
objectA Hasher object.

Example

1import crypto from 'k6/crypto';
2

3export default function () {
4  console.log(crypto.hmac('sha256', 'a secret', 'my data', 'hex'));
5  const hasher = crypto.createHMAC('sha256', 'a secret');
6  hasher.update('my ');
7  hasher.update('data');
8  console.log(hasher.digest('hex'));
9}

The above script should result in the following being printed during execution:
