A simple dotnet tool to calculate hashes for the given file.

The tool calculates MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 hashes for any file and outputs the result as Base64 or Hex string.

## Installation

To install the tool you need to install [.NET 6.0 SDK](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/6.0), [.NET 7.0 SDK](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/7.0), [.NET 8.0 SDK](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/8.0), or [.NET 9.0 SDK](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/9.0). Once installed, run this command:

```powershell

dotnet tool install TheBlueSky.DotNet.Tools.SwiftHash --global

```

## Usage

```

Usage: dotnet hash [arguments] [options]

Arguments:

  path                        Path to the file to calculate the hash for

Options:

  -?|-h|--help                Show help information

  -a|--algorithm   The hashing algorithm

  -o|--out            The output format

The tool calculates MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 hashes

for any file and outputs the result as Base64 or Hex string.

The bigger the file is, the longer it takes to calculate the hash.

```

For example:

```powershell

dotnet hash readme.md --algorithm sha256 --out hex

```

Valid `algorithm`:

* `md5`

* `sha1`

* `sha256`

* `sha384`

* `sha512`

Valid `out`:

* `base64`

* `hex`
