Name

nix hash convert - convert between hash formats

Synopsis

nix hash convert [option…] hashes…

Examples

•   Convert a hash to nix32 (Nix’s variant of Base32 encoding).

    $ nix hash convert --hash-algo sha1 --to nix32 800d59cfcd3c05e900cb4e214be48f6b886a08df
    vw46m23bizj4n8afrc0fj19wrp7mj3c0

•   Convert a hash to the sri format that includes an algorithm specification:

    # nix hash convert --hash-algo sha1 800d59cfcd3c05e900cb4e214be48f6b886a08df
    sha1-gA1Zz808BekAy04hS+SPa4hqCN8=

    or with an explicit --to format:

    # nix hash convert --hash-algo sha1 --to sri 800d59cfcd3c05e900cb4e214be48f6b886a08df
    sha1-gA1Zz808BekAy04hS+SPa4hqCN8=

•   Assert the input format of the hash:

    # nix hash convert --hash-algo sha256 --from nix32 ungWv48Bz+pBQUDeXa4iI7ADYaOWF3qctBD/YfIAFa0=
    error: input hash 'ungWv48Bz+pBQUDeXa4iI7ADYaOWF3qctBD/YfIAFa0=' has format 'base64', but '--from nix32' was specified
    # nix hash convert --hash-algo sha256 --from nix32 1b8m03r63zqhnjf7l5wnldhh7c134ap5vpj0850ymkq1iyzicy5s
    sha256-ungWv48Bz+pBQUDeXa4iI7ADYaOWF3qctBD/YfIAFa0=

Description

Options

•   --from hash-format

    Hash format (base16, nix32, base64, sri).

•   --hash-algo hash-algo

    Hash algorithm (blake3, md5, sha1, sha256, or sha512). Can be omitted for SRI hashes.

•   --to hash-format

    Hash format (base16, nix32, base64, sri). Default: sri.

  Logging-related options

•   --debug

    Set the logging verbosity level to ‘debug’.

•   --log-format format

    Set the format of log output; one of raw, internal-json, bar or bar-with-logs.
