A JavaScript equivalent of PHP's sha1_file

{% codeblock strings/sha1_file.js lang:js https://raw.github.com/kvz/phpjs/master/functions/strings/sha1_file.js raw on github %}
function sha1_file (str_filename) {
  // From: http://phpjs.org/functions
  // +   original by: Kevin van Zonneveld (http://kevin.vanzonneveld.net)
  // -    depends on: file_get_contents
  // -    depends on: sha1
  // *          test: skip
  // *     example 1: sha1_file('http://kevin.vanzonneveld.net/pj_test_supportfile_1.htm');
  // *     returns 1: '40bd001563085fc35165329ea1ff5c5ecbdbbeef'

  var buf = this.file_get_contents(str_filename);

  return this.sha1(buf);
}

Please note that php.js uses JavaScript objects as substitutes for PHP arrays, they are 
the closest match to this hashtable-like data structure. 

Please also note that php.js offers community built functions and goes by the 
[McDonald's Theory](https://medium.com/what-i-learned-building/9216e1c9da7d). We'll put online 
functions that are far from perfect, in the hopes to spark better contributions. 
Do you have one? Then please just:
