Chunk Large File Upload Simulation by Blocks in Python
A Python script reads a large binary file in fixed-size chunks and simulates a block-by-block upload with per-chunk SHA256 hashing.
import os
import hashlib
from pathlib import Path

"""Yield chunks of a file as bytes."""
with open(file_path, 'rb') as f:
while chunk := f.read(chunk_size):
yield chunk
