Answer 1

nodejs (8) ref

const crypto = require('crypto');
const hash = crypto.createHash('sha256');

hash.on('readable', () => {
    const data = hash.read();
    if (data) {
        console.log(data.toString('hex'));
        // Prints:
        //  6a2da20943931e9834fc12cfe5bb47bbd9ae43489a30726962b576f4e3993e50
    }
});

hash.write('some data to hash');
hash.end();
