HashGenerator is a simple Python package to calculate the hash of a file using various hashing algorithms.
To install the package, use pip:
pip install HashGenerator
Here's how you can use the HashGenerator
package to calculate file hashes:
from HashGenerator import calculate_hash
# Calculate SHA-256 hash
hash_value = calculate_hash('path/to/your/file.txt', 'sha256')
print(f"SHA-256: {hash_value}")
# Calculate MD5 hash
hash_value = calculate_hash('path/to/your/file.txt', 'md5')
print(f"MD5: {hash_value}")
# Calculate SHA-512 hash
hash_value = calculate_hash('path/to/your/file.txt', 'sha512')
print(f"SHA-512: {hash_value}")
The following hashing algorithms are supported:
- md5
- sha1
- sha224
- sha256
- sha384
- sha512
Here's an example of how to use the HashGenerator
package:
from HashGenerator import calculate_hash
file_path = 'example.txt'
algorithm = 'sha256'
hash_value = calculate_hash(file_path, algorithm)
print(f"The {algorithm} hash of the file is: {hash_value}")
