Create a MD5 checksum for a file write

Designing Pipelines

Hi,

I need to create a MD5 checksum for a file that is going to be written to and SFTP server. The only way I have figured out how to do this is to write the file to a groundplex server using the file:// protocol and then run a linux command on the file written to create the checksum file. Is there an easier way to do this?

You can use a file reader to output the binary then use a mapper snap setting up the input view as binary the

Digest.md5($content)
