HOW TO GENERATE SHA1 HASH VALUE OF FILE

Message digests are secure one-way hash functions that take arbitrary-sized data and output a fixed-length hash value. In my previous post, I explained about message digest and how to compute message digest. I recommend you to go through my previous post before reading this.

In this post, I am going to explain how to compute hash value of a file. At the time of writing this article, java supports following message digest algorithms.

a.   SHA-1
b.   SHA-224
c.   SHA-256
d.   SHA-384
e.   SHA-512
f.    MD5
g.   MD2

I implemented FileContentHashUtil class that provides following public static methods that compute and return the hash value of a file.

Method
Description
public static Optional<String> getMD2DigestOfFile(final String fileName)
Compute hash value of file using MD2 algorithm.
public static Optional<String> getMD5DigestOfFile(final String fileName)
Compute hash value of file using MD5 algorithm.
public static Optional<String> getSHA1DigestOfFile(final String fileName)
Compute hash value of file using SHA-1 algorithm.
public static Optional<String> getSHA224DigestOfFile(final String fileName)
Compute hash value of file using SHA-224 algorithm.
public static Optional<String> getSHA256DigestOfFile(final String fileName)
Compute hash value of file using SHA-256 algorithm.
public static Optional<String> getSHA384DigestOfFile(final String fileName)
Compute hash value of file using SHA-384 algorithm.
public static Optional<String> getSHA512DigestOfFile(final String fileName)
Compute hash value of file using SHA-512 algorithm.
