file:move

Moves a resource to a specified location When parameter to is specified and it is a folder, the file will be copied to that folder with the same name. When parameter to is specified and it is a file, the target file will be overwritten with the source file. When parameter to is NOT specified, the folder and the name values can be specified using to-folder and to-name parameters, respectively. In one of these value is empty, the value (folder or name) of the source will be used.

filename*the name of the input file
folderthe target folder where the resulting file(s) will be written
target-name*The expression of the target filenames. It may contain references to actual column values in the form "\3" (meaning value of 3rd column).
group-byContains a list of column indices (separated by ","s); lines having the same values in all these columns will go to one file. If left empty, then only the check of the number of columns is performed, so attributes "target-name" is ignored.

error-filenameIf specified, lines with the wrong number of columns will be written to this file, regardless of the values the columns specified in the "group-by" attribute. The expected number of columns can be set by either the "expected-header" or the "expected-column-count" attribute
expected-headerA reference header; the number of expected columns will be determined by counting the columns of this attribute value. If "expected-column-count" is also set, both "expected-header" and "expected-column-count" has to be correct otherwise an error will be thrown.
expected-column-countThis attribute can be used to set the number of expected columns. If expected-column-count="from-file", the number of columns will be calculated based on the first line of the input file. If "expected-header" is also set, both "expected-column-count" and "expected-header" has to be correct otherwise an error will be thrown.
input-headerbooleanfalseSpecifies whether the first line of the input file contains a header. If set to true and attribute "expected-header" is set, the two headers must match. See also attribute "include-header".
include-headerbooleanfalseIf set to "true" and there is a header (set either by attribute "expected-header", or found in the first line of the input file when "input-header" is set to true), each output file and the error file will start with this header line.

mstr:getpromptanswer

Retrieves the set prompt answers of a given subscription, document or report. If a subscription is specified (via subscription-id or subscription-name attributes), the prompt of that subscription will be retrieved; otherwise the report or document is handled. Note that it is possible to specify the id or name of the report/document along with subscription-name; this can help for better identification of the subscription (e.g. if we specify the report id and the subscription name at the same time, then the action checks only the subscriptions of the given report, thus confusion with several subscriptions with the same name but belonging to different reports/documents can be avoided).

z:eval

Evaluates the content of the action as a script. Operates similarly to the "eval" function.

Examples

<z:variable xmlns:kafka="http://zagreus.com/kafka" name="logaction"> <z:text>$${</z:text> <z:text>1 + </z:text> <z:text>2 * 3</z:text> <z:text>}</z:text> </z:variable> <z:log xmlns:kafka="http://zagreus.com/kafka">${logaction}</z:log> <z:log xmlns:kafka="http://zagreus.com/kafka"> <z:eval>${logaction}</z:eval> </z:log>

z:execute

Executes the specified external script (e.g. python, R, Powershell) with the predefined executor binary. The content of the external script can be specified as a child element / child text content, or by filling the id / name attributes. The external script is first saved in the worker filesystem temporary folder. Its name can be customized with the "tempfilename" attribute, otherwise it will be generated automatically with the current timestamp.

Attributes

NameTypePossible ValuesDefault ValueDescription
idtextthe id of the resource containing the external script
nametextthe full path of the resource containing the external script
typetextthe type of the script to be executed externally (e.g. python). The types are configured dynamically in the worker.properties file
asyncbooleanfalseif set to "true", script execution does not wait for the end of the execution, it returns immediately
paramstextAdditional command line parameters for the execution can be specified in this attribute. When it is empty, the first parameter after the executor binary is the script copied to the temporary worker filesystem folder. If this attribute is filled, the parameters specified in this attribute will be concatenated after the path of the saved script. If, however, the value of this attribute contains the "#tempfilename" string, then the full path of the saved script will be inserted at the position specified by this string. Use it this way when the script path is not the first parameter of the full command line. (See the examples below.)
tempfilenametextSpecifies the file name of the saved external script. If left empty, but the value of the "name" attribute is filled, the name and extension of the source file path will be used. If the "name" attribute is left blank as well, the filename "script" will be used instead. In the latter two cases, the execution time stamp will also be added to the actual filename.

Result Attributes

Both "alias = column_reference" and "column_reference = alias" works; the one which does not contain a dot will be handled as the alias. Note that it is not checked whether the referenced columns indeed exist in the input tables; if not, then these will be handled as missing values, which might lead to an empty result.
where-exprtextSelection condition expression. This expression uses the alias parameters of the subactions "from" to identify the data source. Join operators: = No Outer Join += Right Outer Join =+ Left Outer Join +=+ Full Outer Join

zs:migrate-subscription

zs:migrate-subscription is designed for migrating subscriptions between two Zagreus servers. It copies all data of the subscriptions, including variables, options, aliases, and their active status. The subscriptions to be migrated can be specified by scripts, schedules, or both. Further filtering can be applied by specifying the alias(es) of the subscriptions as well. Note that the IDs of both the schedules and the scripts have to be the same on the two Zagreus servers for all subscriptions involved. Also note that the IDs of the subscriptions will not match.

Attributes

zs:migrate

zs:migrate is a complex action for migrating resources between two Zagreus servers. It can migrate simple resources or folder structures as well. If the resource does not exist in the target folder with the given name, it will be created and the source resource ID will be used. If the resource exists in the target folder with the same name, there are two options based on the resource ID of the resource: - if resource IDs are the same, the target resource will be overwritten - if resource IDs are different, an error message will be thrown. When a folder is copied, the structure is processed in recursive way. The settings are applied to single resources one by one.

Attributes

NameTypePossible ValuesDefault ValueDescription
source-connection-nametextname of the source Zagreus connection
target-connection-nametextname of the target Zagreus connection
overwritebooleantrueIf "true", the specific resource with the same version will be overwritten on the target side. If false, the target will be left unchanged. If increment-version is set to true, overwrite attribute will be ignored.
overwrite-options-and-variablesbooleantrueIn case of the resource is a script, if this attribute is "true", the variables and options of the source script will overwrite the variables and options of the existing resource. When set to "false", the variables and options of the target script will remain.
all-versionsbooleanfalseIf "true", all versions of a resource will be migrated. If it is set to false, only the current version, or the specified version will be copied.
force-current-versionbooleanfalseIf "true", the copied resource will be set to current on the target side. This setting is ignored if all-versions is true.
keep-current-versiontextsource
target
sourceIf it is set to source, the source side version of the resource will be set on target after copying. If increment-version = true, the incremented one is set to current on the target side. If it is set to target, if there was an existing target resource, the current version will not be altered.
increment-versionbooleanfalseIf "true" all versions on the source side are saved as new versions (incremented ones) on the target side. If target was not existing, we copy simply all the versions as they are. Overwrite attribute is ignored in this case.
keep-idbooleantrueweather the migration process keeps the source ids for folders and other resources.
only-contentbooleanfalseIf it is "false", the migration process does not create the first parent folder, only scans its content recursively. It is the only way to rename a parent folder by migration, e.g.: source-name: /users/test, target-name=/users/test2.
keep-datesbooleantrueif set to "true", it keeps the original creation and modification times; if set to false, these will be set to the current server time
recursivebooleantrueThis setting is valid only if the source resource is a folder. If set to true, all the folder contents will be migrated recursively as well, otherwise only the folder will be created.
copy-filesystembooleantrueIf the content of the filesystem folder would be migrated. When it is set to false, no filesystem resources will be migrated. It works only in case of user migration. If "source-name" is a user and copy-filesystem="true", the content of the filesystem will be migrated as well. Otherwise only the metadata content will be copied on the target. If the source user name and the target user name are different you can use only-content="true" attribute to metadata and filesystem content will be in the right place.

common attributes

action-attributes

If specified, the attributes of the given action will be stored in the specified variable, then they can be referenced the action-attributes value and the proper attribute name. See example.

Examples

<db:sql connection-name="sql" action-attributes="aa">delete from table</db:sql> <z:log>Connection name has been used: ${aa.connection-name}</z:log>

alias

If specified, the result of the action will be stored in the specified variable.

alias-global

If specified, the result of the action will be stored in the specified global variable.

alias-local

If specified, the result of the action will be stored in the specified local variable.

date-format

The date / time type results of the action will be formatted by the specified date-format. Default is: YYYY-MM-dd for dates, HH:mm:ss.SSS for time.

debug-output

If specified, and the script is executed in debug mode the results of the action will be saved to the given location. If the result contains more items, and these items have no binary content, all the items will be stored in the same file, separated by the newline character. In the case of binary content, only the item references will be displayed.

eval-output

If true, the generated result will parsed as script expression.

exit

If true, script execution will finish after this action with a "finished" status.

exit-message

If the exit attribute is set to true, the results message of the script will be set to this value.

label

This is the label attribute for goto connections in the script logic. For managing goto connections, right-click the action and select "Manage goto expressions..." in the graph editor.

log

If true, the generated result will be logged.

log-attributes

If true, the attributes of the action will be logged.

log-result-attributes

If true, the result attributes of the action will be logged.

logfile

Specifies a custom log target.

loglevel

This attribute sets the logging level, available values: user, info, warning, error, debug.

newline-char

The line separator character, used when writing files. Default value is platform-dependent: for Linux, for Windows.

null-format

The format of the "null" elements in the result of the action. "_empty" refers to an empty string, otherwise the given text will be used. Default value is "".

number-format

The numeric type results of the action will be formatted by the specified number-format. The format sets the position of thousand separator character(s) and one decimal separator character. In the value, thousand separator character is always comma, while decimal separator character is dot. There can be multiple thousand separator characters and only one decimal separator character in a format definition. E.g.: 0,000.00 or ###,000,000.000 To change the displayed thousand and decimal separator characters, use attribute "number-language-format".

number-language-format

It sets the locale to number formatting (decimal points, thousands separator), e.g.: en, de, hu. Displays the appropriate thousand separator character - comma, space or dot - and decimal separator character - comma or dot - according to the given locale code.

no-text-parsing

If true, the text element of the action will not be parsed (evaluating expressions / variables will not happen).

no-result

If true, the generated result of the action will not be used.

on-error-next-child

If yes, it directs the system that when an error happens during processing of a child action, the execution will continue on the next child action. Otherwise the processing of the caller action will be stopped.

on-error-next-sibling

If yes, it directs the system that when an error happens during processing of an action, the execution will continue on the next sibling action. Otherwise the error handling will be forwarded to the parent action, see common attribute on-error-next-child.

output

If specified, the results of the action will be saved to the given location. If the result contains more items, and these items have no binary content, all the items will be stored in the same file, separated by the newline character. In the case of binary content the items are saved the same way as described at attribute output-separated.

output-encoding

It specifies the encoding of the file defined by output and debug-output attributes. Possible values are: ISO-8859-1, ISO-8859-2, UTF-8, UTF-16, UTF-32, UTF-16LE, UTF-16BE, UTF-32LE, UTF-32BE

output-separated

if specified, the results of the action will be saved to the locations derived from the given name. The generated filenames are built from the base part of the given output filename, followed by an underscore and the item name (or its index if name is not available) and finally the extension part. Also see action file:write.

worker-output

If specified, the results of the action will be saved to the given location on the worker file system. If the result contains more items, and these items have no binary content, all the items will be stored in the same file, separated by the newline character. In the case of binary content the items are saved the same way as described at attribute output-separated.

result-attributes

If specified, the result attributes will be stored in the specified variable. Otherwise the variable namespace_actorname will be used. For example the default variable for mstr:report result attributes is mstr_report. This attribute will be ignored if result-attributes-global is set

result-attributes-global

If specified, the result attributes will be stored in the specified global variable.

test-expr

It evaluates the value expression of this attribute, and skips action execution if the result is false.
