The digest utility calculates message digests of files or, if no file is specified, standard input. The set of supported digests depends on the current Python interpreter and the version of OpenSSL present on the system. However, at a minimum, digest supports the following algorithms:
- md5: The MD5 algorithm
- sha1: The SHA1 algorithm
- sha224: The SHA224 algorithm
- sha256: The SHA256 algorithm
- sha384: The SHA384 algorithm
- sha512: The SHA512 algorithm
Type digest -h to see a full list of algorithms available to your
installation.
