hfile

hfile is a command-line interface (CLI) tool for generating cryptographic hashes from files while also facilitating the identification of duplicates.

Supported algorithms: * Blake3 (default) * md5 * sha1 * sha256 * sha384 * sha512

Current options:

```sh

Usage: hfile [OPTIONS] [FILE]

Arguments: [FILE]

Options: -a, --algorithm [default: blake] [possible values: md5, sha1, sha256, sha384, sha512, blake] -s, --size Show size of file -d, --duplicates Find duplicates -p, --path Create hash for all files under path -h, --help Print help -V, --version Print version ```

Example:

$ hfile test-file
9a689455c65ca329fbcae5a1ae8725d88c7a6fbc82fd25bbcd9370ad9c272c50    test-file

If need also the size of the file:

$ hfile -s test-file
9a689455c65ca329fbcae5a1ae8725d88c7a6fbc82fd25bbcd9370ad9c272c50    test-file    44B

To recursively get hash of all files within a directory:

$ hfile -p $HOME
<hash> <file path>

Finding duplicates:

$ hfile -d -p $HOME
will only print duplicates found
