Transform
Description
Transform dynamically performs a transformation of some entity in the workbench using a template and context constraints specified.
The Transform element may contain a template element to have the document dynamically generated via that template. Otherwise, if no Template element is present, the generated document will be the XML view representation for the specified context element.
The "destdir" and "destfile" attributes specify where the downloaded content should be written to.
Parameters
| Attribute | Description | Required |
|---|---|---|
| depot | The project to update | Yes |
| resultproperty | Property to set with success/fail value | Yes |
| comment | Text describing purpose of update | Yes |
| passfile | File containing authentication info to server. If passfile is not specified, information from the framework.properties file is used instead. | No |
| destdir | Directory where destfile should be stored. | Yes |
| destfile | File where transform results should be stored. | Yes |
Parameters specified as nested elements
Examples
Run a transform on the fly.
<transform
serverurl="${viewdoc.server}"
depot="${entity.depot}"
resultproperty="rs"
comment="something re this update"
destdir="${entity.instance.dir}/"
destfile="something.test.out"
>
<context direction="internal" proximity="1" maprefuri="${entity.mapref-uri}"/>
<template file="${templateFile}" dir="/pkgs" type="simple"/>
</transform>
Run a transform with no template specified. This returns a view in an XML document.
<transform
serverurl="${viewdoc.server}"
depot="${entity.depot}"
resultproperty="rs"
comment="something re this update"
destdir="${entity.instance.dir}/"
destfile="something.test.out"
>
<context direction="internal" proximity="1" maprefuri="${entity.mapref-uri}"/>
</transform>
