About

Data pipeline configuration inside an entry connector to transfer local CVS files to CSV files on SFTP server. This flow can also be used as starting point for other data pipeline integrations.

Documentation

1. How to use

With the help of this store item, you have a data pipeline configuration inside an entry connector to transfer local CSV files to CSV files on the SFTP server. This allows for the following:
  

  • Reading CSV data from a local file system.
  • Convert data to flat files (CSV).
  • Writing data to SFTP.
  • Job dashboard (See Deploy > Runtime Dashboard > [Select Runtime] - > [Select Flow] -> Jobs ).

2. Keynotes & restrictions

  • Source data must be shared in Mendix using a 'Published OData service'. If applicable in the settings tab set the association configuration to 'As an associated object id'.
  • Mendix application must be reachable by the eMagiz runtime.
  • Before use, please rename job 'system.message.job' and step 'system.message.step1' to match your system and integration name. Make sure to update support.job-launch-request accordingly.
  • When using multiple pipeline flows on one runtime, an h2 'already in use' exception might occur.  To prevent these errors please keep the name of the h2 database different for each flow on one runtime by renaming the 'dp.h2.message.database' deploy property in the "support.h2-database" component.
  • When you want to import the flow multiple times for one system, you should change the names of the following properties by replacing 'message' with the name of the message type of each integration:
  • dp.odata.message.cron (component: receive.cron)
  • dp.odata.message.url (component: system.message.job -> system.message.step1 -> Item reader)
  • dp.h2.message.database (component: support.h2-database)
  • dp.sftp.message.filename.prefix (component: transform.job-launch-request - > Expression)
