Python module which allows you to generate file hash values using the hashlib library, save them and compare them.
This module is used from the command line like this:
python hashed.py <fpath> <alg> [-s | -c]
Where:
<fpath> is the path to your target file,
<alg> is the hash algorithm you'd like to use,
-s or --save is optional and stores the hash in a file named hash.txt,
-c or --compare is optional and compares the hash with the stored hashes in hash.txt.
Note: The -s and -c options are mutually exclusive. Only one can be used at a time.
Example:
python hashed.py path/to/yourfile.txt sha256
This will print the SHA256 hash of yourfile.txt to std out.
Example:
python hashed.py path/to/yourfile.txt sha256 -s
This will print the SHA256 hash of the file yourfile.txt and append it to hash.txt.
Example:
python hashed.py path/to/yourfile.txt sha256 -c
This will print the SHA256 hash of the file yourfile.txt and compare it with the existing hashes in hash.txt.
