How to acquire MD5 fingerprint from Mavericks

Question

I am new to developing android apps. I am currently attempting to incorporate some Google maps into my android app. I have been using some tutorials that say I need the MD5 fingerprint from my local machine in order to get the API key, but I do not know how to get this MD5 fingerprint. Can any one assist or can point me in the right direction?

Thanks.

Write in terminal :

keytool -list -storepass android -keystore /Users/sigrlami/.android/debug.keystore

you need to locate your debug.keystore first

It will return Certificate fingerprint (MD5) like this: C0:DC:2A:E4:E6:C6:C2:93:CF:9E:xxxxxxx.....
