Dissemination Directory¶

Info

For Dissemination hosts the Directory field is a target-path template applied to every transfer. Variable tokens ($host[…], $dataFile[…], $dataTransfer[…], etc.) are substituted at transfer time by TransferManagement.getTargetName(). The field may also use a selector syntax to choose different paths based on conditions, or be a script that returns the path dynamically.

Path Template¶

Enter a path template. All substitution variables are replaced at transfer time. If the resolved path ends with / (or is empty), the transfer's own target filename is appended automatically.

/outgoing/$destination[name]/$dataFile[original]

/outgoing/$host[name]/

Selector Syntax¶

Use (condition) path lines to select different target paths based on variable values. The line with the highest number of matching conditions wins. A bare line (no (...)) acts as the default.

($$destination[name]==ecpds) /high-priority/$dataFile[original]
($$destination[name]==archive) /archive/$dataFile[metaStream]/$dataFile[original]
/default/$dataFile[original]

Operator	Meaning	Example
`==`	Equals (or regex if second part is `{pattern}`)	`$host[name]=={ecpds.*}`
`!=`	Not equals	`$destination[name]!=test`
`.=`	Starts with	`$dataFile[original].=/data/`
`=.`	Ends with	`$dataFile[original]=..grib2`

Script Mode¶

Note

Select JavaScript or Python mode using the radio buttons above the editor — the wrapper is added automatically on save. The script is evaluated by Format.choose() via ScriptManager; the return value / last expression is used as the resolved target path. Variables are substituted before the script runs.

JavaScript¶

// Return the resolved target path as a string
var host = "$host[name]";
var stream = "$dataFile[metaStream]";
"/outgoing/" + host + "/" + stream + "/";

Python¶

host   = "$host[name]"
stream = "$dataFile[metaStream]"
print("/outgoing/" + host + "/" + stream + "/")

Variables¶

All tokens below are substituted before the path is used or the script runs.

Host¶

$host[name] $host[comment] $host[host] $host[login] $host[passwd] $host[userMail] $host[networkCode] $host[networkName] $host[nickname]

Data Transfer¶

$dataTransfer[target] $dataTransfer[id] $dataTransfer[comment] $dataTransfer[identity] $dataTransfer[priority] $dataTransfer[scheduled] $dataTransfer[statusCode] $dataTransfer[name] $dataTransfer[path] $dataTransfer[parent] $dataTransfer[asap]
