md5_file
Posted on May 14th, 2009 No commentsThe md5_file() function calculates the md5 hash of a file.
PHP
$my_file = '/home/ali/article.txt'; echo md5_file($my_file); // => 745d3dfb68af1b1384aea0125aae5c3f
MD5 encryption can be done using the Digest::MD5 class in Ruby, but to generate a hash for a file, we need to read it’s contents into a variable (string) first.
Ruby
require 'digest/md5'; my_string = File.read('/home/ali/article.txt'); print Digest::MD5.hexdigest(my_string); # => 745d3dfb68af1b1384aea0125aae5c3f
