md5sum

 
Calculate MD5 cryptographic checksums. More information: https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/md5sum.
 
  • Calculate the MD5 checksum for a file:
     
    md5sum {{path/to/file}}
     
  • Calculate MD5 checksums for multiple files:
     
    md5sum {{path/to/file1}} {{path/to/filen2}}
     
  • Calculate a MD5 checksum from the standard input:
     
    echo "{{text}}" | md5sum
     
  • Read a file of MD5SUMs and verify all files have matching checksums:
     
    md5sum --check {{path/to/file.md5}}
     
  • Only show a message for missing files or when verification fails:
     
    md5sum --check --quiet {{path/to/file.md5}}
     
  • Only show a message for files for which verification fails, ignoring missing files:
     
    md5sum --ignore-missing --check --quiet {{path/to/file.md5}}
