sha#

sha(obj, encoding='utf-8', digest=False)[source]#

Shortcut for the standard hashing (SHA) method

Equivalent to hashlib.sha224().

Parameters:

obj (any) – the object to be hashed; if not a string, converted to one
encoding (str) – the encoding to use
digest (bool) – whether to return the hex digest instead of the hash objet

Example:

sha1 = sc.sha(dict(foo=1, bar=2), digest=True)
sha2 = sc.sha(dict(foo=1, bar=2), digest=True)
sha3 = sc.sha(dict(foo=1, bar=3), digest=True)
assert sha1 == sha2
assert sha2 != sha3
