Command-line File Verify - versatile file checksum creator and verifier
Project description
cfv - Command-line File Verify
cfv is a utility to test and create a wide range of checksum verification files. It currently supports testing and creating sfv, sfvmd5, csv, csv2, csv4, md5, bsdmd5, sha1, sha224, sha256, sha384, sha512, torrent and crc files. Test-only support is available for par, par2.
cfv was originally written by Matthew Mueller (original project home). This is a friendly fork of cfv maintained by David Gnedt.
Requirements
Python ≥ 2.4 https://www.python.org/
Optional
- Python Imaging Library (PIL) https://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/ or Pillow https://python-pillow.org/ (only needed if you want to create the dimensions column of .crc files)
- python-fchksum http://code.fluffytapeworm.com/projects (may speed up checksumming speed a bit, especially if your python was not built with the mmap module.)
Install
You can get the latest release from the Github releases page.
Unix
make install
(which just runspython setup.py install --prefix=/usr/local
)- read man page,
cfv -h
, etc. have fun - optional: run tests to verify correct operation:
cd test; ./test.py
Windows
- maybe
python setup.py install
will do something useful? At least it should stick the libraries in the right place - move
cfv.bat
to somewhere in the path - edit the
cfv.bat
file if your Python is installed somewhere other thanC:\python24
