General description

The “Read files” Transformer can be used to read the contents of a file located on a filesystem and makes it available in the entity data.

The different parts of the Read-files Transformer

  • Filesystem (required field)
    This defines the filesystem that contains the file to read.

  • Parser (required field)
    This defines the parser that is used to convert the file’s contents into JSON, making it usable within Alumio.

  • File location (required field)
    This determines the path to the file on the filesystem. It is also used to set the contents of the file in the entity data.
