# Hash Brown
[](https://circleci.com/gh/chingc/workflows/Hash-Brown) [](https://codecov.io/gh/chingc/Hash-Brown) [](./LICENSE) [](https://pypi.org/project/hb/)
A simple command-line utility for calculating checksums.
## Install
```
pip install hb
```
## Usage
Calculate the sha1 of a file:
```
$ hb -a sha1 hello.txt
sha1 (hello.txt) = 493a253abf93d705d67edeb463134a5c8752fc9d
```
Check to see if file matches a given checksum:
```
$ hb -a md5 hello.txt -g 77060c267470021a97392b815138733e
md5 (hello.txt) = 77060c267470021a97392b815138733e OK
$ hb -a md5 hello.txt -g 0123456789abcdef
md5 (hello.txt) = 0123456789abcdef BAD
```
Checksums can be read from a file:
```
$ hb -c checksums.txt
sha512 (hello.txt) = 493a253abf93d705d67edeb463134a5c8752fc9d OK
sha512 (world.txt) = 683e4ee04e75e71a6dca42807001f00be1fcb2a3 OK
sha512 (image.jpg) = f3a53e6c2743645f08faedadd7a2c57cbc38632f OK
sha512 (video.mp4) = 03ba9191fc4cd74f218df58542643fbc07dca532 OK
```
Hash Brown outputs its results in BSD style. The checksum files are also BSD style.
All files are read in binary mode.
Globbing and recursive globbing are supported via `*` and `**` respectively.
Dotfiles are not included when globbing and need to be specified explicitly.
## Options
```
-a, --algorithm [blake2b|blake2s|md5|sha1|sha224|sha256|sha384|sha512|adler32|crc32]
-c, --check Read checksums from a file.
-g, --given TEXT See if the given checksum `TEXT` matches the
computed checksum. (use with -a)
-p, --parallel Process files in parallel.
-q, --quiet Hide results that are OK. (use with -c)
-t, --timer Display elapsed time in seconds.
--version Show the version and exit.
-h, --help Show this message and exit.
