Java's UUID.nameUUIDFromBytes to written in JavaScript?

Question

I have a 3rd party application that I can't control that uses Java's UUID.nameUUIDFromBytes to create a string. I need to reproduce this function written in JS.

In OpenJDK's source I found this:

public static UUID nameUUIDFromBytes(byte[] name) {
    MessageDigest md;
    try {
        md = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");
    } catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException nsae) {
        throw new InternalError("MD5 not supported", nsae);
    }
    byte[] md5Bytes = md.digest(name);
    md5Bytes[6]  &= 0x0f;  /* clear version        */
    md5Bytes[6]  |= 0x30;  /* set to version 3     */
    md5Bytes[8]  &= 0x3f;  /* clear variant        */
    md5Bytes[8]  |= 0x80;  /* set to IETF variant  */
    return new UUID(md5Bytes);
}

For the life of me I can't figure it out, mostly because of how JS abstracts bytes.

TL;DR: I just need a js function that will produce the same string as UUID.nameUUIDFromBytes((VARIABLE).getBytes(Charsets.UTF_8)).toString().

Okay so, this is not pure-js, but it is nodejs.

const crypto = require('crypto');

function javaHash(input) {
    let md5Bytes = crypto.createHash('md5').update(input).digest();
    md5Bytes[6]  &= 0x0f;  /* clear version        */
    md5Bytes[6]  |= 0x30;  /* set to version 3     */
    md5Bytes[8]  &= 0x3f;  /* clear variant        */
    md5Bytes[8]  |= 0x80;  /* set to IETF variant  */
    return md5Bytes.toString('hex');
}

This solution gave me exact UUID for me

const crypto = require('crypto');
const hexToUuid = require('hex-to-uuid');

const javaHash = (input) => {
    var md5Bytes = crypto.createHash('md5').update(input).digest()
    md5Bytes[6] &= 0x0f;  // clear version        
    md5Bytes[6] |= 0x30;  // set to version 3     
    md5Bytes[8] &= 0x3f;  // clear variant        
    md5Bytes[8] |= 0x80;  // set to IETF variant  
    return hexToUuid(md5Bytes.toString('hex'))
}

console.log('javaHash', javaHash("HelloWorld"));
