mac- / hash-files Goto Github PK

Command:

hash-files -f '["package.json"]'

Expected:

Hash the array of files

Actual:

Error: Option "files" has a value that cannot be converted to an Object/Array: '[package.json]'

System:
OS: Windows 11 x64
CLI: CMD
Node.js: v18.9.1

Would the OpenSSL version per environment cause issues in the underlying crypto module that hash-files uses? Let's say I use hash-files to md5 a folder of files on one platform and do the same thing with the same content on another platform. Would OpenSSL differences cause a difference in the md5 hash?

I'm trying to get hash of a file but it doesn't work.

this is my code :
hashFiles({"files":'/path/to/my/file', "algorithm":'sha256'}, function(error, hash){
if (error) throw error;
console.log(hash);
});

abd into server.js
I added this : var hashFiles = require('hash-files');

I have to generate hash for a directory with some of the sub-directory or files are excluded

For e.g. There is a directory

/path/to/dir/abc/

This Directory has following sub directories & file

• foo
• bar
• secrets.txt

I don't want to include bar directory while creating hash for directory 'abc'

So, please provide a way we can exclude directory or file while generating hash of a directory.

ps:: we can use glob-all instead of glob to get the path of the directory.

As far as I understand, this works by concatenating all of the files together and then hashing the result. Does this mean that we can get the same hash when hashing this:

File 1: 00 01 02
File 2: 03 04 05

As well as this?

File 1: 00 01 02 03
File 2: 04 05

As example, the command should be like:
$ ./bin/hash-files -f '["package.json"]' -a sha256

But it would throw an error said Option "files" has a value that cannot be converted to an Object/Array: [package.json].

It should be $ ./bin/hash-files -f '[\"package.json\"]' -a sha256 instead.
