sha256 - Functions - Configuration Language |
The sha256 function computes the SHA256 hash of a given string and encodes it
with hexadecimal digits. |
sha256 computes the SHA256 hash of a given string and encodes it with
hexadecimal digits.
The given string is first encoded as UTF-8 and then the SHA256 algorithm is applied as defined in RFC 4634. The raw hash is then encoded to lowercase hexadecimal digits before returning.

filesha256calculates the same hash from the contents of a file rather than from a string value.base64sha256calculates the same hash but returns the result in a more-compact Base64 encoding.
