function Get-Hash { <# .SYNOPSIS This function generates a hash of a given string using the specified hash algorithm. .DESCRIPTION The Get-Hash function takes an input string and a hash type as parameters. It generates a hash of the input string using the specified hash algorithm. The hash type can be one of the following: HMACMD5, HMACRIPEMD160, HMACSHA1, HMACSHA256, HMACSHA384, HMACSHA512, MACTripleDES, MD5, RIPEMD160, SHA1, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512. .PARAMETER InputString The string to be hashed. .PARAMETER HashType The type of hash algorithm to be used. It must be one of the hash types mentioned in the description. .EXAMPLE Get-Hash -InputString "Hello, World!" -HashType "SHA256" This example generates a SHA256 hash of the string "Hello, World!". "Hello, world!" | Get-Hash -HashType "HMACMD5" This example generates a HMACMD5 hash of the string "Hello, World!". .NOTES Author: Wojciech Napierala Date: 2024-04 #> [CmdletBinding()] param( # The string to be hashed [Parameter(Mandatory = $true, ValueFromPipeline = $true)] [string]$InputString, # The type of hash algorithm to be used [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [ValidateSet("HMACMD5", "HMACRIPEMD160", "HMACSHA1", "HMACSHA256", "HMACSHA384", "HMACSHA512", "MACTripleDES", "MD5", "RIPEMD160", "SHA1", "SHA256", "SHA384", "SHA512")] [string]$HashType ) # Create the hash provider based on the specified hash type $hashProvider = [System.Security.Cryptography.HashAlgorithm]::Create($HashType) # Compute the hash of the input string $hash = $hashProvider.ComputeHash([System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes($InputString)) # Convert the hash to a string and remove any hyphens $hashString = [System.BitConverter]::ToString($hash) -replace "-", "" # Return the hash string return $hashString } |
