Hashpic

Hashpic creates an image from the MD5 hash of your input.

Since v0.2.0 it is also possible to create an image from a SHA-512 hash.

Since v0.3.0 it is also possible to create an image from a SHAKE-256 hash with variable digest length of 4, 16, 25, 36, 64, 100 or 225.

Install

pip3 install hashpic

Usage

> python3 -m hashpic 'Hashpic rocks!'

This should create a file output.png in your current directory. The input Hashpic rocks! should create the following image:

Piping from another program

All this commands should produce the same image as above.

> printf 'Hashpic rocks!' | md5 | python3 -m hashpic --bypass

> printf 'Hashpic rocks!' | python3 -m hashpic

Console Mode

SHA-512 Mode

It is also possible to create an image from a SHA-512 hash. All arguments for MD5 Mode are also available for SHA512 Mode.

> python3 -m hashpic --sha512 'Hashpic rocks!'

> printf 'Hashpic rocks!' | python3 -m hashpic --sha512

This commands should create the following image:

SHAKE256 Mode

You can create an image from a SHAKE256 hash with variable digest lengths. Valid lengths are 4, 16, 25, 36, 64, 100 and 225. You must specify the length of the digest if you want to create an image from a SHAKE256 hash.

> python3 -m hashpic --shake256 --length 100 'Hashpic rocks!'

The command above should produce the following image:

Digest Length of 4

> python3 -m hashpic --shake256 --length 4 'Hashpic rocks!'

Digest Length of 16

> python3 -m hashpic --shake256 --length 16 'Hashpic rocks!'

Digest Length of 25

> python3 -m hashpic --shake256 --length 25 'Hashpic rocks!'

Digest Length of 36

> python3 -m hashpic --shake256 --length 36 'Hashpic rocks!'

Digest Length of 64

> python3 -m hashpic --shake256 --length 64 'Hashpic rocks!'

Digest Length of 225

Maybe this command will take a few seconds to complete.

> python3 -m hashpic --shake256 --length 225 'Hashpic rocks!'

Examples

Bypassing a hash directly:

> python3 -m hashpic ff00ff00ff00ff0000ff00ff00ff00ffff00ff00ff00ff0000ff00ff00ff00ffff00ff00ff00ff0000ff00ff00ff00ffff00ff00ff00ff0000ff00ff00ff00ff --bypass --sha512

This command will produce the following image:

So we can call the hash above the so called chessboard hash.

You can also bypass a hash from another program:
