hash_file(
    string $algo,
    string $filename,
    bool $binary = false,
    array $options = []
): string|false

Параметри

algo

Name of selected hashing algorithm (e.g. "sha256"). For a list of supported algorithms see hash_algos().

filename

URL describing location of file to be hashed; Supports fopen() wrappers.

binary

When set to true, outputs raw binary data. false outputs lowercase hexits.

options

An array of options for the various hashing algorithms. Currently, only the "seed" parameter is supported by the MurmurHash variants.

Значення, що повертаються

Returns a string containing the calculated message digest as lowercase hexits unless binary is set to true in which case the raw binary representation of the message digest is returned.

I have verified that the output of the "crc32" is the ITU I.363.5 algorithm (a.k.a. AAL5 CRC - popularised by BZIP2 but also used in ATM transmissions - the algorithm is the same as that in POSIX 1003.2-1992 in Cksum but that stuffs the size into the CRC at the end for extra measure). However, the output is expressed in reverse order to many CRC programs. Using the "standard" crctest.txt (numbers 1 to 9 in sequence - google it, it's not hard to find), php will output 181989fc - many other (Intel little endian) programs would output this as fc891918, hence the confusion (that I have had, at least).

The crc32b is the 32-bit Frame Check Sequence of ITU V.42 (used in Ethernet and popularised by PKZip). The output from this CRC is popularised in Intel little endian format and would produce cbf43926 on the same file.

If you want to use hash_file() to get the CRC32 value of a file, use the following to unpack the hex string returned by the function to an integer (similar to crc32()):

$hash = hash_file('crc32b', $filepath);
$array = unpack('N', pack('H*', $hash));
$crc32 = $array[1];

The 'octets reversed' you are seeing is the bug 45028 which has been fixed. http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=45028

The difference between crc32 and crc32b is explained on mhash man page. crc32 is the one used on ethernet, while crc32b is the one used on zip, png... They differ on the table used.

The Hash_File() function returns the same value as if the function Hash() had been performed on the same exact piece of data. At first, I was uncertain if Hash_File() used the filename, or even the permission settings, when defining the data to be hashed for the given algorithm. If it did work that way, then that means the same exact files would have different HASH values when you moved or renamed them on your system. Anyway, fortunately, it does not work that way. Hash() and Hash_File() produce identical results for the same pieces of data. This is also true for the relationship between the Hash_HMAC() and Hash_HMAC_File() functions: the same pieces of data, the same keys, produce identical results. It was a wise, design principle.

Some sample code to demonstrate this principle :

<?php

// Author: holdoffhunger@gmail.com

// Preset Data
// ------------------------------------------------

$test_data = "php-hashing";
$test_file = "test.txt";
$test_file_read = file_get_contents($test_file);

// Hash Data
// ------------------------------------------------

$test_data_hash = hash("md2", $test_data, FALSE);
$test_file_hash = hash_file("md2", $test_file, FALSE);

// Print Hash Results
// ------------------------------------------------

print("Data Hash ($test_data): $test_data_hash<br><br>");
print(
"File Hash ($test_file_read): $test_file_hash");

?>

Expected Results
..................................

Data Hash (php-hashing): 457d84e1d69e519a7b73348db21477d3

File Hash (php-hashing): 457d84e1d69e519a7b73348db21477d3

It's sometimes necessary to hash the same file with different algos,

<?php
function hash_file_multi($algos = [], $filename) {
if (!
is_array($algos)) {
throw new
\InvalidArgumentException('First argument must be an array');
}

if (!
is_string($filename)) {
throw new
\InvalidArgumentException('Second argument must be a string');
}

if (!
file_exists($filename)) {
throw new
\InvalidArgumentException('Second argument, file not found');
}

$result = [];
$fp = fopen($filename, "r");
if (
$fp) {
// ini hash contexts
foreach ($algos as $algo) {
$ctx[$algo] = hash_init($algo);
}

// calculate hash
while (!feof($fp)) {
$buffer = fgets($fp, 65536);
foreach (
$ctx as $key => $context) {
hash_update($ctx[$key], $buffer);
}
}

// finalise hash and store in return
foreach ($algos as $algo) {
$result[$algo] = hash_final($ctx[$algo]);
}

fclose($fp);
} else {
throw new
\InvalidArgumentException('Could not open file for reading');
}
return
$result;
}
?>

Which would be used like:

<?php
$result
= hash_file_multi(['md5', 'sha1', 'sha256'], 'path/to/file.ext');

var_dump($result['md5'] === hash_file('md5', 'path/to/file.ext')); //true
var_dump($result['sha1'] === hash_file('sha1', 'path/to/file.ext')); //true
var_dump($result['sha256'] === hash_file('sha256', 'path/to/file.ext')); //true
