cPipesAndFilters – Docs for ESB ESB 7.x

cPipesAndFilters

Splits message routing into a series of independent processing stages.

cPipesAndFilters divides message
processing into a sequence of independent endpoint instances, which can then be chained
together.

cPipesAndFilters Standard properties

These properties are used to configure cPipesAndFilters running in the Standard Job framework.

The Standard
cPipesAndFilters component belongs to the Routing family.

Click the plus button to add new lines for URIs that identify
endpoints.

Usage

Usage rule

cPipesAndFilters is usually used
in the middle of a Route.

Limitation

Using cPipesAndFilters to process the task in sequence

This scenario applies only to Talend Open Studio for ESB, Talend Data Services Platform and Talend Data Fabric.

In this scenario, a cPipesAndFilters component is
used so that messages sent from the sender endpoint undergo stage A and stage B. Upon
completion of both stages, the messages are routed to a file system, which is the
receiver endpoint for the messages.

Dropping and linking the components

  1. From the Connectivity folder of the Palette, drop two cFile components onto the design workspace, one as the
    message sender and the other as the message receiver, and label them
    Sender and Receiver respectively to better identify their roles in the
    Route.
  2. From the Routing folder, drop one cPipesAndFilters component onto the design workspace,
    between the two cFile components.
  3. From the Core folder, drop two cMessagingEndpoint components onto the design workspace, one
    as the endpoint of stage A and the other as the endpoint of stage B, and
    label them Stage_A and Stage_B respectively to better identify their
    roles in the Route.
  4. From the Custom folder, drop three cProcessor components onto the design workspace to monitor
    messages received on the receiver, stage A and stage B endpoints
    respectively, and label them Monitor_Receiver, Monitor_stage_A, and Monitor_stage_B respectively to better identify their roles
    in the Route.
  5. Right-click the cFile component labeled
    Sender, select Row > Route from the
    contextual menu, and click the cPipesAndFilters component.

    Repeat this step to set up the rest Row >
    Route connections, as shown
    above.

Configuring the components

  1. Double-click the cFile component labeled
    Sender to open its Basic settings view in the Component tab.

  2. In the Path field, fill in or browse to
    the path to the folder that holds the source files.
  3. From the Encoding list, select the
    encoding type of your source files. Leave the other parameters as they
    are.
  4. Repeat these steps to define the path to the output files and the output encoding type in
    the Basic settings view of the cFile component labeled Receiver.
  5. Double-click the cPipesAndFilters
    component to open its Basic settings view
    in the Component tab.

  6. Click the plus button to add two lines to the URI list
    table, and fill the first line with "direct:a" and the second
    line with "direct:b" to define the URIs of stage A and stage B
    that the messages will undergo.
  7. Double-click the cMessagingEndpoint component labeled
    Stage_A to configure the component in
    its Basic settings view and define the URI
    of stage A.

    Repeat this step to define the URI of stage B in the Basic
    settings
    view of the cMessagingEndpoint component labeled Stage_B.
  8. Double-click the cProcessor component
    labeled Monitor_Receiver to open its
    Basic settings view, and customize the
    code in the Code area to display the file
    names of the messages received on Receiver, as follows:

    Repeat this step to customize the code in the other two cProcessor components to display the file names
    of the messages received on stage A and stage B respectively:
  9. Press Ctrl+S to save your Route.

Viewing code and executing the Route

  1. Click the Code tab at the bottom of the
    design workspace to have a look at the generated code.

    cPipesAndFilters_5.png

    As shown in the code, messages sent from
    Sender are redirected to endpoints identified by
    direct:a and direct:b by
    cPipesAndFilters_1 before being routed to
    Receiver.
  2. Press F6 to run your Route.

    RESULT: The message delivery goes through stage A and
    then stage B before reaching Receiver.
