s3sha256sum is a small program that calculates SHA256 checksums of objects stored on Amazon S3. Use it to verify the integrity of your objects.

If the expected checksum value has been attached to the object metadata (or tag), then s3sha256sum will automatically compare the values and report OK or FAILED. See here for an example.

s3sha256sum has a fancy feature that helps avoid double work and extra data transfer charges if you have to abort the hashing process. If you interrupt the program with Ctrl-C, it will print the internal state of the hash function and print a command that will resume the process from that position in the object.

For the paranoid, s3sha256sum also has an option that prints the status on an interval. This can be useful for humongous objects where you can't afford to restart the process from the beginning.

Tip: In many cases it may be worth running s3sha256sum on an EC2 instance located in the same region as the S3 bucket. Data transfer from S3 to EC2 is free.

Installation

You can download precompiled binaries from the releases section.

If you prefer to compile from source (or to use unreleased features), you can install using go install:

go install github.com/stefansundin/s3sha256sum@latest

Usage

$ s3sha256sum --help
Usage: s3sha256sum [parameters] <S3Uri> [S3Uri]...
S3Uri must have the format s3://<bucketname>/<key>.

Parameters:
      --ca-bundle string               The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates.
      --debug                          Turn on debug logging.
      --endpoint-url string            Override the S3 endpoint URL. (for use with S3 compatible APIs)
      --expected-bucket-owner string   The account ID of the expected bucket owner.
      --no-sign-request                Do not sign requests.
      --no-verify-ssl                  Do not verify SSL certificates.
      --paranoid duration              Print status and hash state on an interval. (e.g. "10s")
      --profile string                 Use a specific profile from your credential file.
      --region string                  The region to use. Overrides config/env settings. Avoids one API call.
      --request-payer string           Confirms that the requester knows that they will be charged for the requests. Possible values: requester.
      --resume string                  Provide a hash state to resume from a specific position.
      --use-accelerate-endpoint        Use S3 Transfer Acceleration.
      --use-path-style                 Use S3 Path Style.
      --verbose                        Verbose output.
      --version                        Print version number.
      --version-id string              Version ID used to reference a specific version of the S3 object.
