I have created an extension to the default logstash file input plugin. The purpose of the extension is validate the MD5 hash of any new file by calling an endpoint whenever a new file event is observed.
I have explained how I have handled it here: elastic/logstash#6895
I have added the changes to allow additional config parameters in the logstash plugin and made the md5 digest calculation related changes in this filewatch repo. My changes will only run if the auth-endpoint parameters is found in the @watcher object which is created to subscribe for file event. If not the usual flow will be taken.
