running MD5 on a file throws error: OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument
0
I'm trying to run an MD5 on a list of files, but I'm getting an error and I'm not really sure why.
with open(local_file, 'rb') as f:
print(f) # prints: <_io.BufferedReader name='absolute/path/to/file.mkv'>
print(f.read()) # Throws the error: OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument
print(hashlib.md5(f.read()).hexdigest())
the line print(f.read()) Throws the following error
OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument
python-3.x file md5

If the file didn't exist, then thewith open...line is what would throw the error and give ano such fileerror. No?

You are correct. I observed that the file ismkv. With python, reading a huge file into RAM causes issues. I remember seeing something similar in SO before. Let me find the link.
