A simple tool to calculate the hash of a directory. Only considering it's contents, ignoring all attributes.
Basically a copy of https://github.com/gosimple/hashdir with some improvements, bug fixes & a CLI tool to wrap the library.
Install the cli tool by downloading the appropriate binary / archive from https://github.com/brad-jones/hashdir/releases
Alternative installation methods:
- HomeBrew:
brew install brad-jones/tap/hashdir - Scoop:
scoop bucket add brad-jones https://github.com/brad-jones/scoop-bucket.git; scoop install hashdir; - Docker:
docker pull ghcr.io/brad-jones/hashdir/cli:latest
Then just execute hashdir with a path and an optional hash algorithm
(defaults to sha256).
hashdir [-alg md5|sha1|sha256|sha512] /a/path
The hash will be output as a hex encoded string, with no other output, not even a newline.
TIP: A docker run command might look like:
docker run --rm -v /a/path:/a/path ghcr.io/brad-jones/hashdir/cli:latest /a/path
Consume the go module like any other.
package main
import (
"github.com/brad-jones/hashdir"
)
func main() {
hash, err := hashdir.Make("/a/path", "md5|sha1|sha256|sha512")
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
// do something with "hash"...
}
