sha1_file

(PHP 4 >= 4.3.0, PHP 5)

sha1_fileCalculate the sha1 hash of a file

Description

string sha1_file ( string $filename [, bool $raw_output = false ] )

Calculates the sha1 hash of the file specified by filename using the » US Secure Hash Algorithm 1, and returns that hash. The hash is a 40-character hexadecimal number.

Parameters

filename

The filename of the file to hash.

raw_output

When TRUE, returns the digest in raw binary format with a length of 20.

Return Values

Returns a string on success, FALSE otherwise.

Examples

Example #1 sha1_file() example

<?php
foreach(glob('/home/Kalle/myproject/*.php') as $ent)
{
    if(
is_dir($ent))
    {
        continue;
    }

    echo 
$ent ' (SHA1: ' sha1_file($ent) . ')'PHP_EOL;
}
?>

Changelog

Version Description
5.1.0 Changed the function to use the streams API. It means that you can use it with wrappers, like sha1_file('http://example.com/..')
5.0.0 Added the raw_output parameter

P2P programs like LimeWire utilize sha1 to identify files. However they do it in base32. Here's an utility class if you want to write a Gnutella client in PHP5

If you've got a script that allows user file upload, and you want to prevent multiple uploads of the same file:

    <?
        session_start
();
       
$isDuplicate false;
        if(isset(
$_FILES["filename"]["tmp_name"]) && file_exists($_FILES["filename"]["tmp_name"])) {
           
$fileHash sha1_file($_FILES["filename"]["tmp_name"]);
            if(!isset(
$_SESSION["check_filelist"])) {
               
$_SESSION["check_filelist"] = array($fileHash);
            }
            elseif(
in_array($fileHash,$_SESSION["check_filelist"])) {
               
$isDuplicate true;   
            }
            else {
               
$_SESSION["check_filelist"][] = $fileHash;   
            }
           
            if(
$isDuplicate) {
                echo 
"You've already uploaded that file";   
            }
            else{
               
// do some stuff   
           
}
        }
       
   
?>

Just for the record - 

As some have pointed out, you have two ways to generate the hash of a file:
Method 1 [this function]: sha1_file($file)
Method 2: sha1(file_get_contents($file))

It's important to realize that these two methods are NOT the same thing. If they were, I seriously doubt this function would exist.

The key difference, as far as I can tell, is how the file's contents are loaded. The second method loads the entirety of $file into memory before passing it to sha1($str). Method two, however, loads the contents of $file as they are needed to create the hash.

If you can guarantee that you'll only ever have to hash relatively small files, this difference means very little. If you have larger ones, though, loading the entirety of file into memory is a bad idea: best case, you slow down your server as it tries to handle the request; worse case, you run out of memory and don't get your hash at all.

Just try to keep this in mind if you decide to load the file's contents yourself, in lieu of using this function. On my system, I was able to use this function to generate the hash of a 2.6GB file in 22 seconds, whereas I could not with the second method, due to an out-of-memory error (which took 185 seconds).
