Usage
usage: hashsum [-h] [-a] [--tag] [-b | -t] [-c | -l] [--quiet] [--status] [--strict] [-w] [-m] [--version] [FILE [FILE ...]] Compute and check message digest with different hash algorithms. The sums are computed as described in [1]. When checking, the input should be a former output of this program. The default mode is to print a line with checksum, a character indicating input mode ('*' for binary, space for text), and name for each FILE. [1] https://docs.python.org/3/library/hashlib.html positional arguments: FILE name of file to process. If not specified, or set to -, data are read form the standard input optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit -a , --algorithm specify the hashing algorithm (default: 'md5') --tag create a BSD-style checksum -b, --binary read input data in binary mode -t, --text read input data in text mode (default) -c, --check read checksum(s) form FILE and check them -l, --list-algorithms list available hashing algorithms -m, --multi-thread perform I/O and hash computation in separate threads (default=False). Can speed-up computation on large files while it is not recommended for small files. --version show program's version number and exit check: Options that are useful only when verifying checksums --quiet don't print OK for each successfully verified file --status don't output anything, status code shows success --strict exit non-zero for improperly formatted checksum lines -w, --warn warn about improperly formatted checksum lines
Package testing
The recommended way to test the package is to use pytest:
$ python3 -m pytest -v ========================== test session starts ========================== platform linux -- Python 3.9.5, pytest-6.0.2, py-1.10.0, pluggy-0.13.0 hashsum version: 1.4.0.dev0 Platform: Linux-5.11.0-24-generic-x86_64-with-glibc2.33 Byte-ordering: little Default encoding: utf-8 Default FS encoding: utf-8 Default locale: ('it_IT', 'UTF-8') rootdir: /home/antonio/projects/hashsum, configfile: setup.cfg plugins: hypothesis-5.43.3, remotedata-0.3.2, doctestplus-0.9.0, openfiles-0.5.0, flake8-1.0.6, filter-subpackage-0.1.1, cov-2.10.1 collected 26 items tests/test_hashsum.py::ComputeSumTestCase::test_binary PASSED [ 3%] tests/test_hashsum.py::ComputeSumTestCase::test_binary_auto PASSED [ 7%] [...] tests/test_hashsum.py::ThreadedCheckTestCase::test_text PASSED [100%] ========================== 26 passed in 0.29s ===========================
Please note that some basic system information that can be sued for bug reporting are also printed on the screen.
The default configuration for “pytest” is stored into the setup.cfg file in the root directory of the source package:
[tool:pytest] addopts = -p no:warnings -p no:logging
Alternatively it is possible to use:
$ python3 -m unittest -v tests/test_hashsum.py
