--------------------------------------
Summary: Include md5sum in S3 method for GetFileInfo()
Key: ARROW-15875
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-15875
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: R
Affects Versions: 7.0.0
Reporter: Carl Boettiger
GetFileInfo() seems to include mtime, size, path and type. For an S3 system,
it would be nice to be able to reference the md5 sum without transferring the
file, (which I think the server will have already computed?). This seems like
the logical place to include it (though I wouldn't object to a more visible
method too).
(though type isn't clear to me, since it appears to be an integer)
