shasum

Calculate SHA cryptographic checksums. More information: https://manned.org/shasum.

  • Calculate the SHA1 checksum for one or more files:

shasum {{path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...}}

  • Calculate the SHA checksum for one or more files with the specified algorithm:

shasum --algorithm {{1|224|256|384|512|512224|512256}} {{path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...}}

  • Calculate a SHA1 checksum from stdin:

{{command}} | shasum

  • Calculate and save the list of SHA256 checksums to a file:

shasum --algorithm 256 {{path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...}} > {{path/to/file.sha256}}

  • Read a file of SHA checksums and filenames and verify all files have matching checksums (the algorithm will be automatically detected):

shasum --check {{path/to/file}}

  • Only show a message for missing files or when verification fails:

shasum --check --quiet {{path/to/file}}

  • Only show a message when verification fails, ignoring missing files:

shasum --ignore-missing --check --quiet {{path/to/file}}

  • Check a known SHA checksum of a file:

echo {{known_sha_checksum_of_the_file}} {{path/to/file}} | shasum --check
