poc-md5-hash-gen 🚀

Description 📝

poc-md5-hash-gen is a JavaScript application designed for generating MD5 hashes 🌐 of all possible string permutations from a predefined alphabet. This tool uses the hash-wasm library and demonstrates hashing techniques and data storage management in JavaScript.

Installation 💻

To install this project:

1. Ensure Node.js is installed on your machine.
2. Clone the repository or download the project source code.
3. Navigate to the project directory.
4. Install the required dependencies:

   npm install

Configuration 🔧

Before running the application, you must create an .env file in the root of the project directory with the following database configurations:

DBHOST=your_database_host
DBPORT=your_database_port
DBUSER=your_database_username
DBPASS=your_database_password
DBNAME=your_database_name

Replace your_database_host, your_database_port, your_database_username, your_database_password, and your_database_name with your actual database details.

Setup 🛠️

Run the setup script to initialize the application:

1. Execute the setup script:

   node setup.js

   This script will create a table in the specified database for storing generated hashes.

Usage 📊

After completing the setup:

1. Start the application by running index.js with a number greater than 1 as an argument:

   node index.js <number>

   Replace <number> with a numerical value greater than 1. The script will generate strings based on the defined alphabet and compute their MD5 hashes, storing the results in the database.
