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}}

  • Read a file of MD5SUMs and verify all files have matching checksums:

md5sum -c {{path/to/file.md5}}

  • Calculate a MD5 checksum from the standard input:

echo "{{text}}" | md5sum
