Not update directly, but I agree that an helper would be convinient.
Here is another proposition using unbuffered file and readinto() with
bytearray. It should be faster, but I didn't try with a benchmark. I also wrote
two functions, because sometimes you have a file object, not a file path.
---
import hashlib, sys
def hash_readfile_obj(obj, fp, buffersize=64 * 1024):
buffer = bytearray(buffersize)
while True:
size = fp.readinto(buffer)
if not size:
break
if size == buffersize:
obj.update(buffer)
else:
obj.update(buffer[:size])
def hash_readfile(obj, filepath, buffersize=64 * 1024):
with open(filepath, 'rb', buffering=0) as fp:
hash_readfile_obj(obj, fp, buffersize)
def file_sha256(filepath):
sha = hashlib.sha256()
hash_readfile(sha, filepath)
return sha.hexdigest()
for name in sys.argv[1:]:
print("%s %s" % (file_sha256(name), name))
---
readfile() and readfile_obj() should be methods of an hash object.
