Validate chocolatey checksum before installing package



  • Hello, may I know are there any ways to validate the checksum of chocolatey package that correct before installing this package? If it possible can you let me know how I can test the case that my package's checksum was changed.

    Here is my chocolateyInstall.ps1 script.

    $ErrorActionPreference = 'Stop';
    
    $packageName  = 'test-pkg'
    $toolsDir     = "$(Split-Path -parent $MyInvocation.MyCommand.Definition)"
    $fileLocation = Join-Path $toolsDir 'test_pkg-20.12.58.msi'
    
    $packageArgs = @{
      packageName   = $packageName
      softwareName  = 'test-pkg*'
      file          = $fileLocation
      fileType      = 'msi'
      silentArgs    = "/qn /norestart"
      validExitCodes= @(0)
      checksum      = '6640E0031CCC6D9EF948BF661F821F7347AE78C35D2B8C51F2AFEE477C7F8F41'
      checksumType  = 'sha256'
    }
    
    Import-Module "$env:ChocolateyInstall\helpers\chocolateyInstaller.psm1" -Force
    Install-ChocolateyInstallPackage @packageArgs

    Hi @Crimrose, this would probably be better to check on the Chocolatey forums / community site. But if you can find the answer, please share it :)
