Hash Me 1.2 (gui & cli versions)

Calculate the checksum using many methods for one or more files at a time. Save the results in a ‘.SUM’ text file for each given file.

Last update 2021-04-08

Take a look here, H.F.M repositories for other useful linux softwares.

• If you just want to use it, simply download the ‘*.deb’ compiled version under the releases tab.

• If you want to play inside code, see below “How to compile” section.

How it’s made

• Programmed with go language: golang
• GUI provided by Gotk3 (gtk3 v3.22), GUI library for Go (minimum required v3.16).
• I use home-made software: “Gotk3ObjHandler” to embed images/icons, UI-information and manage/generate gtk3 objects code from glade ui designer. and “Gotk3ObjTranslate” to generate the language files and the assignment of a tooltip on the gtk3 objects (both are not published at the moment, in fact, they need documentations and, for the moment, I have not had the time to do them).

Functionalities

• Create hash checksum for given files, allow to create .SUM files corresponding to each file.
• Includes Md4, Md5, Sha1, Sha256, Sha384, Sha512, Sha3_256, Sha3_384, Sha3_512, Blake2b256, Blake2b384, Blake2b512 methods.
• Several previews available (Tree or flat text display).
• Multi-file management.
• Concurrent files processing.
• OS reminder for Mac, Window, Linux (how to control checksum).
• Command line version available.

Cli version

How to compile

• Open terminal window and at command prompt, type: go get github.com/hfmrow/hash-me

• See Gotk3 Installation instructions for gui installation instruction.

• To change gtk3 interface you need to use a home made software, (not published actually). So don’t change gtk3 interface (glade file) …

• To change language file you need to use another home made software, (not published actually). So don’t change language file …

• To Produce a stand-alone executable, you must change inside “main.go” file:

    func main() {
        devMode = true
    ...
  

  into

    func main() {
        devMode = false
    ...
  

This operation indicate that externals data (Image/Icons) must be embedded into the executable file and/or that the internal behavior will be modified to adapt to the production environment.

Os informations (build with)

• The compilation have not been tested under Windows or Mac OS, but all file access functions, line-end manipulations or charset implementation are made with OS portability in mind.

You got an issue ?

• Give information (as above), about used platform and OS version.
• Provide a method to reproduce the problem.
