A simple way to check MD5sum

[Mike]

This is great misko! Would it be possible to add the ability to choose MD5 or Sha1?

[anon222]

Possible, but I keep it in the right-click menu

Name: SHA1
Description: Calculates SHA1 sum.
Command: /usr/scripts/sha1 %f
Pattern: *
Files: Check all the boxes except Directories
save the script as sha1
make executable
copy the file to /usr/scripts

Code:

#!/bin/bash

sha1_file="$@"

# Start sha1sum of a selected file
sha1sum "$sha1_file" | tee >(cut -d ' ' -f1 > /tmp/sumsh1) |zenity --progress --title="SHA1" --text="Calculating sha1sum for:\n${sha1_file##*/}" --pulsate --auto-close

# If Cancel is clicked then remove temporary file and exit
if [ "${PIPESTATUS[2]}" -ne "0" ]; then
rm /tmp/sumsh1
exit 0
fi

# Display calculated md5sum
sum=`cat /tmp/sumsh1`
zenity --info --title="SHA1" --text="SHA1sum : $sum\nFile :          ${sha1_file##*/}"
rm /tmp/sumsh1

And md5sum

Name: MD5
Description: Calculates MD5 sum.
Command: /usr/scripts/md5 %f
Pattern: *
Files: Check all the boxes except Directories
save the script as md5
make executable
copy the file to /usr/scripts

Code:

#!/bin/bash

md5_file="$@"

# Start MD5sum of a selected file
md5sum "$md5_file" | tee >(cut -d ' ' -f1 > /tmp/sum) |zenity --progress --title="MD5sum" --text="Calculating md5sum for:\n${md5_file##*/}" --pulsate --auto-close

# If Cancel is clicked then remove temporary file and exit
if [ "${PIPESTATUS[2]}" -ne "0" ]; then
rm /tmp/sum
exit 0
fi

# Display calculated md5sum
sum=`cat /tmp/sum`
zenity --info --title="MD5sum" --text="MD5sum : $sum\nFile :          ${md5_file##*/}"
# echo $sum > "$md5_file".md5sum
rm /tmp/sum

It's better to use * as a pattern because that way you can calculate the sum of any file.

P.S. I hope this version works for rokytnji.

Thank you! Do you think it might be better as a single script where you select which Checksum to verify? I imagine a dialog pops up where the user can choose SHA1 or MD5.

Hmm, great idea.   Thank you. I'll set md5 as default one and add SHA256.
Once it's ready, I'll post here.

Here it is:


Name: Checksum

save the script as checksum
make executable
copy the file to /usr/scripts

Code:

SHA256=(`echo "" | awk '{print "FALSE","SHA-256", $0}'`)

Outstanding! Thanks so much misko.

[anon222]

You're welcome so much.

[gold_finger]

Wow!  Excellent job misko_2083!

Just loaded it on my LL 2.0 desktop -- works great.

[Mike]

I think I need a sub menu in my right-click menu for all of misko's and Jerry's scripts.

Thanks. It was mlsmith's idea to merge the scripts.

I think I need a sub menu in my right-click menu for all of misko's and Jerry's scripts. 

Or, you could modify my script and add all of right-click menu items in a list.
