Create simple ETags
$ npm install etagvar etag = require('etag')Generate a strong ETag for the given entity. This should be the complete
body of the entity. Strings, Buffers, and fs.Stats are accepted. By
default, a strong ETag is generated except for fs.Stats, which will
generate a weak ETag (this can be overwritten by options.weak).
res.setHeader('ETag', etag(body))etag accepts these properties in the options object.
Specifies if a "strong" or a "weak" ETag will be generated. The ETag can only really be a strong as the given input.
