=head1 DESCRIPTION
The digest functions output the message digest of a supplied file or files
in hexadecimal. The digest functions also generate and verify digital
signatures using message digests.
=head1 OPTIONS
=over 4
=item B<-c>
print out the digest in two digit groups separated by colons, only relevant if
B<hex> format output is used.
=item B<-d>
print out BIO debugging information.
=item B<-hex>
digest is to be output as a hex dump. This is the default case for a "normal"
digest as opposed to a digital signature. See NOTES below for digital
signatures using B<-hex>.
=item B<-binary>
output the digest or signature in binary form.
=item B<-r>
output the digest in the "coreutils" format used by programs like B<sha1sum>.
=item B<-out filename>
filename to output to, or standard output by default.
=item B<-sign filename>
digitally sign the digest using the private key in "filename".
=item B<-keyform arg>
Specifies the key format to sign digest with. The DER, PEM, P12,
and ENGINE formats are supported.
=item B<-engine id>
Use engine B<id> for operations (including private key storage).
This engine is not used as source for digest algorithms, unless it is
also specified in the configuration file.
=item B<-sigopt nm:v>
Pass options to the signature algorithm during sign or verify operations.
Names and values of these options are algorithm-specific.
=item B<-passin arg>
the private key password source. For more information about the format of B<arg>
see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)|openssl(1)>.
=item B<-verify filename>
verify the signature using the the public key in "filename".
The output is either "Verification OK" or "Verification Failure".
=item B<-prverify filename>
verify the signature using the the private key in "filename".
=item B<-signature filename>
the actual signature to verify.
=item B<-hmac key>
create a hashed MAC using "key".
=item B<-mac alg>
create MAC (keyed Message Authentication Code). The most popular MAC
algorithm is HMAC (hash-based MAC), but there are other MAC algorithms
which are not based on hash, for instance B<gost-mac> algorithm,
supported by B<ccgost> engine. MAC keys and other options should be set
via B<-macopt> parameter.
=item B<-macopt nm:v>
Passes options to MAC algorithm, specified by B<-mac> key.
Following options are supported by both by B<HMAC> and B<gost-mac>:
=over 8
=item B<key:string>
Specifies MAC key as alphnumeric string (use if key contain printable
characters only). String length must conform to any restrictions of
the MAC algorithm for example exactly 32 chars for gost-mac.
=item B<hexkey:string>
Specifies MAC key in hexadecimal form (two hex digits per byte).
Key length must conform to any restrictions of the MAC algorithm
for example exactly 32 chars for gost-mac.
=back
=item B<-rand file(s)>
a file or files containing random data used to seed the random number
generator, or an EGD socket (see L<RAND_egd(3)|RAND_egd(3)>).
Multiple files can be specified separated by a OS-dependent character.
The separator is B<;> for MS-Windows, B<,> for OpenVMS, and B<:> for
all others.
=item B<-non-fips-allow>
enable use of non-FIPS algorithms such as MD5 even in FIPS mode.
=item B<-fips-fingerprint>
compute HMAC using a specific key
for certain OpenSSL-FIPS operations.
=item B<file...>
file or files to digest. If no files are specified then standard input is
used.
=back
=head1 EXAMPLES
To create a hex-encoded message digest of a file:
openssl dgst -md5 -hex file.txt
To sign a file using SHA-256 with binary file output:
openssl dgst -sha256 -sign privatekey.pem -out signature.sign file.txt
To verify a signature:
openssl dgst -sha256 -verify publickey.pem \
-signature signature.sign \
file.txt
=head1 NOTES
The digest of choice for all new applications is SHA1. Other digests are
however still widely used.
When signing a file, B<dgst> will automatically determine the algorithm
(RSA, ECC, etc) to use for signing based on the private key's ASN.1 info.
When verifying signatures, it only handles the RSA, DSA, or ECDSA signature
itself, not the related data to identify the signer and algorithm used in
formats such as x.509, CMS, and S/MIME.
A source of random numbers is required for certain signing algorithms, in
particular ECDSA and DSA.
The signing and verify options should only be used if a single file is
being signed or verified.
Hex signatures cannot be verified using B<openssl>. Instead, use "xxd -r"
or similar program to transform the hex signature into a binary signature
prior to verification.
