A Gradle plugin for creating checksums for files in your build.
- Version 1.4.0 requires Gradle 5.4 or above
- Version 1.3.0 requires Gradle 5.0 or above
plugins {
id 'org.gradle.crypto.checksum' version '1.4.0'
}
import org.gradle.crypto.checksum.Checksum
task generateFiles {
// Generates some files.
}
task createChecksums(type: Checksum, dependsOn: 'generateFiles') {
inputFiles.setFrom(generateFiles.outputs.files)
outputDirectory.set(layout.buildDirectory.dir("foo/checksums"))
checksumAlgorithm.set(Checksum.Algorithm.SHA512)
appendFileNameToChecksum.set(true)
}
When the createChecksums task is finished, there will be a file ending in
.sha512 for each of the files output by the generateFiles task.
Currently, only SHA256 (default), SHA384, SHA512, and MD5 are
supported. Please file an issue or make a pull request if you need support
for some other hashing algorithm.
If you want to append the filename to the checksum value, set appendFileNameToChecksum to true (false by default).
This makes it easier to automate the checksum verification with the md5sum, sha256sum, sha384sum or sha512sum tools:
> sha512sum -c ../build/checksums/foo.txt.sha512
foo.txt: OK
By default, the outputDirectory will be set to project.buildDir + "checksums".
The task is incremental at the file level, and will only alter files in the
output directory which end with file extensions managed by this task
(e.g. .sha256 or .sha512). However, for optimal caching of other tasks
it is still advisable to try and use independent output directories for
each task in your build.
