webpack-sha-hash

About

Using this Webpack plugin, you can easily generate SHA hashes for your Webpack chunks. This plugin replaces the standard chunkhash of Webpack with SHA.

This project is a fork of https://github.com/erm0l0v/webpack-md5-hash based on SHA instead of MD5. Why? Because MD5 is a thing of the past, so why continue to use it? :)

SHA hashes are created using sha.js

Installation

npm install webpack-sha-hash --save-dev

Usage

Like most plugins, you just need to import it and add it to your plugins array:

const WebpackSHAHash = require('webpack-sha-hash');
 
module.exports = {
    // ...
    output: {
        //...
        chunkFilename: "[chunkhash].[id].chunk.js"
    },
    plugins: [
        new WebpackSHAHash()
    ]
};

Enjoy!

Options

hashingAlgorithm: use a different hashing algorithm

The SHA-256 hashing algorithm is used by default. If you want, you can use any of the supported algorithms supported by sha.js: https://www.npmjs.com/package/sha.js

To override the algorithm, just provide the name of the one you want to use to the plugin:

...
    plugins: [
        new WebpackSHAHash({
            hashingAlgorithm: "sha512"
        })
    ]
