Verify Hash

Verify Hash can be use to generate hash of a file or to verify the integrity of the file.

Supports Platform: Cross Platform

Programming Language: Python 3 and above

How to use:

  1. If you have Python3 installed. You can use the .py file.
  • If you are using Python with Windows, use verify_hash_no_color.py file.
  • If you are using Linux/macOS, you can use any .py file. But if you are using colored version i.e., verify_hash.py make sure you install, termcolor package in Python.
  1. You can use binaries/executable version as well.
  • Binaries are in executables folder.
  • After downloading, paste the file in Documents folder and open Terminal/Command Prompt.
  • Enter the command, cd Documents.
  • Run the file by typing ./ followed by file name. For eg., ./verify_hash.exe (for Windows) and ./verify_hash (for Linux/macOS).

Note: On Linux/macOS, before running the file, you might need to run chmod 755 verify_hash to make it executable.

Available Arguments:

  • -h or --help: Displays all the available options.
  • -f or --file: This option needs to be used as to define for which file you need the program to calculate hash value.
  • -t or --type: This options needs to be used as to define which type of hashing algorithm to support.
  • -v or --verify-hash: Optional. Can be used to specify the Hash Value from the website to verify it.

Note: Program supports most of the common hashing algorithm, but if you uses an algorithm that is not supported by the program, it will gives back an error.

Color Significance:

  • Green: Successful.
  • Blue: In process.
  • Red: Unsuccessful or Errors.
