FileHasher.exe

Can be executed normally. If done so, it will enter into an interactive mode where it currently accepts the following commands:

• -path : Allows you to enter the path of the file you want to hash
• file : Hash the currently selected file. Will output the Hash, followed by the duration and the file size
• exit : Terminate the program

The executable can also be called with command line arguments, referred to as "headless mode".
In this case, the program will only output the specified hash, which can be used to pipe into another application.
If -v is specified, the program will output error messages if anything fails, if no -v is set it will output nothing.
An example usage would be: FileHasher.exe SHA256 Path\To\file

FileHasherUI.exe

The UI is intended for larger jobs, or overall for an easier file selection.
You can select all the files you want to hash, as soon as one is done the hash will be shown in the output box.
The first progress bar shows the progress of the current file, while the bottom one shows the overall progress of the current job.
Right clicking on an entry in the Output box opens up a small menu where you can copy the selected Hash to your clipboard, compare it to a hash that is already in your clipboard or lookup the hash on virustotal.
In the dropdown menu above the output box, you can choose "Export as JSON", this will export all the information as a JSON string with the following format:

{
    "FileHasherUI.exe": {
        "filePath": "C:/Dev/Cpp/FileHasher/GUI/build-FileHasherUI-Qt_15_5_0_Static-Release/release/FileHasherUI.exe",
        "fileSizeB": 12243456,
        "hashes": {
            "MD5": "f4d21ce15dfc8141e6ecf5565243ca1b",
            "SHA1": "1b67745342ebee6ea6d9ce662b62e0bbe7f5a377",
            "SHA256": "fe0c7397dfeef53a6f701026b2b94018c67249850c35d2f54b9d432562160b50",
            "SHA512": "2ad97a3a77136379e3644ade4586553bb79f1e902f155b205e844667b57d0df175a780b198cec7be9b8e5111612a71d3a39a4f1665dfe0a3724120f1de1b3ad6"
        }
    }
}

You can also choose "Export as C-Array" which will export only the hashes, formatted like a C-Array.
In the Dialog that will open you can review the exported data and copy it to your clipboard or save it to a file.

1.1 Release (GUI and CLI)

Updates

• Added new Hashing Algorithms: MD5 and SHA512
• Improved Output box
• Cleaned up Backend code
• Some GUI bug fixes
• Known Issues:
  • File progress bar breaks with files > 2GB, this is because QProgressBar only takes signed integers

For smaller updates such as bug fixes or small commits, the newest Release's binaries will be updated.
