This will work in Python if it is what you are looking for. It will take and calculate an md5 for a file and then rename the file that sum. Will work on *nix/Windows/?

/usr/bin/env python

import os, hashlib

file = 'path/to/file'


def main():

  h = hashlib.md5(file)
  output = h.hexdigest()
  os.rename( file, output)

if __name__ == '__main__':
  main()
