Release notes

Verify Hashes Action

A very simple action:

find . -name "<filename>.{md5,sha,sha1,sha256,sha512} -exec \
  # (verify <filenames> within <hashfile>)

Getting Started

- name: 'Check: Hashes'
  uses: sgammon/verify-hashes@v1

This will check all files in your codebase that look like:

filename.ext
filename.ext.{md5,sha,sha1,sha256,sha512}

For example, say you have a hash file:

something.txt.sha256:

98ea6e4f216f2fb4b69fff9b3a44842c38686ca685f3f55dc48c5d3fb1107be4  something.txt

And you have the subject it asserts upon:

something.txt:

hi

This action will detect something.txt.sha256, find something.txt, hash it according to SHA-256, and make sure the two match.

Usage

By default, the following cases will fail the action:

• There was a hash file, the subject file was found, the hash did not match
• There was a hash file, the subject file was not found
• There was a hash file, it was malformed or broken
• There was a hash file with no subject or the subject file is ambiguous

In strict mode, the following additional cases fail the action:

• There were no hash files found under any paths, or all of them were ignored

Examples

Fail if hash files are not found

Strict mode will fail if hash files are not found or all of them are ignored:

- name: 'Check: Hashes'
  uses: sgammon/verify-hashes@v1
  with:
    strict: true

Verify a specific set of hash files

Turn off globs to do that. Multi-line values are accepted for paths:

- name: 'Check: Hashes'
  uses: sgammon/verify-hashes@v1
  with:
    globs: false
    paths: |
      some/cool/hashfile.txt.sha256      

Behavior

This section describes in detail how the action behaves.

Paths

By default, paths and ignored are treated as globs. Entries in ignored are actually just globbed against each algorithm, same as paths, but with ! prepended. So, for example:

- name: 'Check: Hashes'
  uses: sgammon/verify-hashes@v1
  with:
    paths: hello
    ignored: goodbye

The effective glob is:

hello/**/*.{md5,sha,sha1,sha256,sha512}
!goodbye

Literal paths mode

When you pass globs: false, the paths entries become regular literal paths:

- name: 'Check: Hashes'
  uses: sgammon/verify-hashes@v1
  with:
    paths: |
      hello.sha256
      djkhaledanotherone.sha256      
    globs: false

The effective paths are:

hello.sha256
djkhaledanotherone.sha256
