# sha256sum
> Calculate SHA256 cryptographic checksums.
> More information: <https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/manual/html_node/sha2-utilities.html>.
- Calculate the SHA256 checksum for one or more files:
`sha256sum {{path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...}}`
- Calculate and save the list of SHA256 checksums to a file:
`sha256sum {{path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...}} > {{path/to/file.sha256}}`
- Calculate a SHA256 checksum from `stdin`:
`{{command}} | sha256sum`
- Read a file of SHA256 checksums and filenames and verify all files have matching checksums:
`sha256sum --check {{path/to/file.sha256}}`
- Only show a message for missing files or when verification fails:
`sha256sum --check --quiet {{path/to/file.sha256}}`
- Only show a message when verification fails, ignoring missing files:
`sha256sum --ignore-missing --check --quiet {{path/to/file.sha256}}`
- Check a known SHA256 checksum of a file:
`echo {{known_sha256_checksum_of_the_file}} {{path/to/file}} | sha256sum --check`
