Function createSign

  • Creates and returns a Sign object that uses the given algorithm. Use getHashes to obtain the names of the available digest algorithms. Optional options argument controls the stream.Writable behavior.

    In some cases, a Sign instance can be created using the name of a signature algorithm, such as 'RSA-SHA256', instead of a digest algorithm. This will use the corresponding digest algorithm. This does not work for all signature algorithms, such as 'ecdsa-with-SHA256', so it is best to always use digest algorithm names.

    Parameters

    Returns "crypto".Sign
