File Functions
Understand Double Braces functions offered in the Digibee iPaaS and how to use them. Learn how File functions make queries to metadata and make validations in files.
The functions were created to:
- speed up the creation of your integrations even more
- decrease the complexity of your pipelines
- simplify data conversions and transformations during the flow of your pipelines
The file functions make queries to metadata and make validations in files and are available for components that support Double Braces expressions. To know how to provide information to the components using this resource, click here.
Checks if a file exists in the virtual directory of the pipeline deployment.
FILEEXISTS(file)
- file: name of the file in the virtual directory of the pipeline
The function returns
true
when the file is found and false
when it's not found.Returns the size of a file in the virtual directory of the pipeline deployment.
FILESIZE(file)
- file: name of the file in the virtual directory of the pipeline
Let's say you need to obtain the size of the file created one step before the use of the File Writer component. If its file name configuration in File Writer was
file.txt
, then use the following extract in the JSON Generator component:{
"fileSize": {{ FILESIZE("arquivo.txt") }}
}
The result would be:
{"fileSize": 1000}
- fileSize: the size of the file (in bytes).
