Is there any way that anyone knows of to get the checksums for the zipped files? I need to bring these files into a secured environment and I am not able to do that without being able to validate that the checksum on the zip file matches what FontAwesome says it should be. I already emailed support and they sent me here.

Hi!

Thanks for being part of the Font Awesome Community.

You mean zip files available at https://fontawesome.com/download and https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/releases/tag/6.1.1 ?

Yes, exactly. Specifically, it is fontawesome-free-5.10.1-web I am looking for

Thanks for the clarification

@robmadole I think this is a legit request and a good practice for "binary" files.

I see that the release description is used for checksums, and in the future we may upload the checksums as part of the release itself (example) and as per the website we have full control.

Can't tell which is the effort to automate this

Yeah this is a great idea. I don't have an ETA on this but we'll get it on the todo list.

In the meanwhile, is there any way I can be provided with what the hash is supposed to be for the version I mentioned? I just need to be able to prove that the hash on the file I have matches what the source says it should be.

@tagliala Is there any way for me to get the hash in the meanwhile manually?
