File Hash Digest Reports

The following examples demonstrate how to generate file hash digests with the supported hash algorithms:

Default SHA256 Hash Digest

$ hsh somefile.txt

MD5 Hash Digest

$ hsh md5 somefile.txt

SHA1 Hash Digest

$ hsh sha1 somefile.txt

SHA224 Hash Digest

$ hsh sha224 somefile.txt

SHA256 Hash Digest

$ hsh sha256 somefile.txt

SHA384 Hash Digest

$ hsh sha384 somefile.txt

SHA512 Hash Digest

$ hsh sha512 somefile.txt

File Integrity Comparisons

The following examples demonstrate how to perform hash digest based file integrity checks using the supported hash algorithms:

File to File Comparison (SHA256 Hash Digest Comparison by Default)

$ hsh file-pre.txt file-post.txt

File to Hash Digest Comparison (MD5)

$ hsh somefile.txt <MD5 hash digest>

File to Hash Digest Comparison (SHA1)

$ hsh somefile.txt <SHA1 hash digest>

File to Hash Digest Comparison (SHA224)

$ hsh somefile.txt <SHA224 hash digest>

File to Hash Digest Comparison (SHA256)

$ hsh somefile.txt <SHA256 hash digest>

File to Hash Digest Comparison (SHA384)

$ hsh somefile.txt <SHA384 hash digest>

File to Hash Digest Comparison (SHA512)

$ hsh somefile.txt <SHA512 hash digest>

Hash Digest to Hash Digest Comparison

$ hsh <hash digest 1> <hash digest 2>
