hasher-rs

A fully-featured recursive hasher application for file validation. Fully compatible with standard hash outputs (i.e. md5sum, sha256sum, etc)

Usage

A simple hasher that supports multiple algorithms and directory traversal

Usage: hasher.exe [OPTIONS] [FILE]

Arguments:
  [FILE]  The file, folder, or stdin to hash [default: -]

Options:
  -a, --algorithm <ALGORITHM>        Must be one of: blake2, blake3, md5, sha1, sha256, sha512, sha3_256, sha3_512, xxh3_128, xxh3_64, xxh64, xxh32, fnv [default: blake3]
  -o, --output <OUTPUT>              Optional. File to save hashsum to
      --no-mmap                      Disable mmap in blake3. Also disables the progress bar for blake3
      --no-progress                  Disable progress bar
  -c, --check                        Switch to hashsum check mode. File must be a hashsum file
  -q, --quiet                        Don't print OK for each successfully verified file
  -s, --status                       Only return status code
      --exclude <EXCLUDE>            Add a path to ignore
      --include <INCLUDE>            Add a path to include
      --max-depth <MAX_DEPTH>        Max recursion depth
      --max-filesize <MAX_FILESIZE>  Max file size to show
      --follow-links                 Follow links
      --hidden                       Walk hidden directories
      --no-ignore                    Ignore .ignore files
      --no-gitignore                 Ignore .gitignore files
      --no-git-exclude               Ignore .git/info/exclude
      --no-global-gitignore          Ignore global gitignore files
      --no-parents                   Ignore parent directory ignore files
      --legacy                       Legacy format (don't print algorithm)
      --buffer-size <BUFFER_SIZE>    How many hashes to buffer before writing to file [default: 10000]
  -h, --help                         Print help
  -V, --version                      Print version

Hashing text input

You can also use hasher inline:

echo "test" | hasher -a sha256

Installing

Linux

Run the following:

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://git.zevaryx.com/zevaryx/hasher-rs/raw/branch/main/install.sh | sh

macOS

In theory, you can simply download and modify the Linux install script to install on macOS, but I do not have a mac to test on

Windows

1. Download the latest hasher.exe from the releases page
2. Place somewhere already on your path (or modify your path to add the location)
   • I recommend C:\tools\bin or C:\Users\<username>\.local\bin
