# Sub-Resource Integrity Generator Scripts # Sub-Resource Integrity Generator Scripts
Basic scripts to generate SRI hashes for a given file. POSIX-compliant shell script for use on *nix and PowerShell for use on Windows. Basic scripts to generate SRI hashes. POSIX-compliant shell script for use on *nix and PowerShell for use on Windows.
## common features
- Hash individual files or a quoted space-delimited list of files.
- Hash all files within a specified directory with one command.
- Hash a filtered-list of files within a directory with one command.
- Process a list of files and a directory (filtered or not) at the same time, saving you typing!

### examples
Assuming you have *not* copied the script to your path and it is located in your home directory:
```bash ```bash
cd ~ ./sri --help
./sri -f /var/www/css/style.css
``` ```
If copied to a directory in your path like */usr/local/bin*, then you can simplify things by running it directly from where the file you want to hash is located: ### copy to path location
Copying the script to a location within your path makes running it more convenient. For example:
Assuming you store it in your home directory /Downloads and need to hash files in your webroot (eg: /var/www/css/...)
```bash ```bash
cd /var/www/css ~/SRIhelper/sri -f /var/www/css/style.css
sri -f style.css ```
Whereas, if it's in your path, you can omit the source path and just run
```bash
sri -f /var/www/css/style.css
```
To make this work, just copy the file to a location in your path. There are no dependencies or anything to worry about, the file is self-contained and POSIX compliant.
```bash
# copy to local/bin
cp ~/SRIhelper/sri /usr/local/bin/sri
# copy and rename to something else
cp ~/SRIhelper/sri /usr/local/bin/hashSRI
# copy to your global bin directory (usually local is preferred!)
cp ~/SRIhelper/sri /usr/bin/sri
``` ```
