The sha1_file() function calculates the sha1 hash of a file.

PHP
```
$my_file = '/home/ali/article.txt';
 
echo sha1_file($my_file);
 
// => bef6b2b56f70eb6f2c250e00c855f4c0120832aa
```
Sha1 encryption can be done using the Digest::SHA1 class in Ruby, but to generate a hash for a file, we need to read it’s contents into a variable (string) first.

Ruby
```
require 'digest/sha1';
 
my_string = File.read('/home/ali/article.txt');
 
print Digest::SHA1.hexdigest(my_string);
 
# => bef6b2b56f70eb6f2c250e00c855f4c0120832aa
```

The sha1() function calculates the sha1 hash of a string.

PHP
```
echo sha1('apple');
// => d0be2dc421be4fcd0172e5afceea3970e2f3d940
```
Sha1 encryption can be done using the Digest::SHA1 class in Ruby. To use this class, we need to require the Digest library first…

Ruby
```
require 'digest/sha1';
 
print Digest::SHA1.hexdigest('apple');
 
# => d0be2dc421be4fcd0172e5afceea3970e2f3d940
