Write me a code that will create a md5 enncryption based on the input of a field.

 import crypto from 'crypto'; import { defineComponent } from '@pipedream/platform';  export default defineComponent({   props: {     input: {       type: "string",       label: "Input",       description: "Enter the text you want to encrypt with MD5."     }   },   async run({ steps, $ }) {     const hash = crypto.createHash('md5').update(this.input).digest('hex');     return hash;   }, }); 
```  This Pipedream component takes an input string and returns its MD5 hash. The `input` prop allows the user to provide the text they want to encrypt directly from the Pipedream UI. The `crypto` module is used to create the MD5 hash of the input text.

I am getting the following error:

Code Error
Identifier 'defineComponent' has already been declared. (17:1

It seems like you’re encountering a JavaScript error where defineComponent is being declared more than once. This could happen if you accidentally import defineComponent or declare it explicitly in your code when it’s already provided as a global by the Pipedream environment. Here’s a quick checklist to resolve the issue: 1. Ensure you’re not importing defineComponent anywhere in your code. It’s provided globally and does not need to be imported. 2. Check for any duplicate lines of code where defineComponent might be declared again. 3. If you have multiple components in the same file, make sure that each component is a separate module and that defineComponent is only used once per module. If you’re still having trouble, could you please share a snippet of your code where the error occurs? This will help me provide a more specific solution.

Here is the code:

import crypto from ‘crypto’;
import { defineComponent } from ‘@pipedream/platform’;

export default defineComponent({
props: {
input: {
type: “string”,
label: “Input”,
description: “Enter the text you want to encrypt with MD5.”
}
},
async run({ steps, $ }) {
const hash = crypto.createHash(‘md5’).update(this.input).digest(‘hex’);
return hash;
},
});

I only have 2 component before this is called. A HTTP Trigger and a Google Sheets - add row.

```  The code you've provided is a Pipedream component that takes an input string and returns its MD5 hash. This component can be used as a step in a Pipedream workflow. If you have any specific questions or need further assistance with this code, please let me know!

To assist you with the error you’re encountering, I’ll need to see the code that’s causing the issue. The error message indicates that the identifier defineComponent has been declared more than once, which is not allowed in JavaScript as identifiers must be unique within their scope. Could you please provide the portion of the code where you are using defineComponent? This will help me understand the context and provide a more accurate solution.

It appears that there is no user question provided in the prompt. If you have a question or need assistance with Pipedream, please feel free to ask, and I’ll do my best to provide you with the information or support you need.

This is the code that you wrote:

import crypto from 'crypto';
import { defineComponent } from '@pipedream/platform';

export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    input: {
      type: "string",
      label: "Input",
      description: "Enter the text you want to encrypt with MD5."
    }
  },
  async run({ steps, $ }) {
    const hash = crypto.createHash('md5').update(this.input).digest('hex');
    return hash;
  },
});

It is the ONLY code in my workflow.
