Help translating a few line of PHP to CF

Question

This is for an API for a project im working on.
Would someone be so kind as to help me translate this over
from PHP.
I need it in Cold Fusion, and eventually Perl and Python...
For those not familiar with PHP:
- The "." (period) in the $md5 line just concats the $query
and $secret strings
- $var is a variable, and when placed in double quotes $var
will be replaced with its value,
eg. $var="world"; echo "Hello $var"
Thanks!!

Answer 1

CORRECTIONS:
* Corrected 'mdf' typo to 'md5'
* Concatenated the 'secret' string to the 'query' string in
the md5
hash function.
<cfscript>
apikey = "MY_API_KEY";
secret = "MY_SECRET";
apiurl = "
http://domain.com/api";
epoch_time = now();
query =
"cmd=MY_COMMAND&key=#apikey#&time=#epoch_time";
md5 = hash(query & secret,"MD5");
url = "#apiurl#?#query#&md5=#md5#;
</cfscript>
<cfhttp url="#url#">
<cfset response = cfhttp.filecontent>
