CommandBox v3.9.1 checksum

Parameters:

Name	Type	Required	Default	Hint
path	globber	true		Path of file or globbing pattern to create checksum of
algorithm	string	false	md5	Hashing algorithm to use
extension	string	false		File extension to write. Using this sets write to true.
format	string	false	checksum	Format to write hash in. checksum, md5sum, or sfv
verify	string	false		A hash to verify to a file. Error will be thrown if checksums don't match.
write	boolean	false	false	Set true to write checksum to a file instead of outputting to console

Generate checksum for a file or a directory via a globbing pattern.
Default is MD5, but SHA-1, SHA-256, and SHA-512 can also be used.

checksum file.txt

checksum build.zip SHA-256

Create a checksum for more than one file in a directory with a file globbing pattern

checksum path=*.zip

Write checksum(s) to a file named after the original file plus a new extension.
This will create a file called "myFile.zip.md5".

checksum myFile.zip md5 --write

Control the file extension like so. (--write is optional when supplying an extension)
This will create a file called "myFile.zip.hash".

checksum path=myFile.zip extension=hash --write

Control the format of the hash with the "format" parameter.

- "checksum" (default) -- just the hash

- "md5sum" -- The format of GNU textutils md5sum

- "sfv" -- The format of BSDs md5 command

Verify a file against an existing hash. Error will be thrown if checksums are different

checksum path=myFile.zip verify=2A95F32028087699CCBEB09AFDA0348C
