Field | Definition |
Basic Tab | |
Label | Specify a label for this task. |
Input File | Specify the path and file name of a file to scan and modify. |
Input Files Variable | Specify the name of a variable of type File List which contains the files to scan and modify. For example, ${variableName} |
Output File | Specify the path and file name of the output file where the modified data should be written. This is only applicable when modifying a single file. |
Output Directory | Specify the directory location on the local file system where the modified files should be written. |
When File Exists | Specify the action to take when the output file already exists. The default action is rename, which will auto-rename the output file leaving the existing file untouched. Default Value: rename |
Search For | Specify the search pattern to use to search for and replace characters in the input file(s). All values will be searched for as their string literals. Regular expressions are not allowed. The following escaped characters are permitted \n (new line), \r (carriage return), \t (tab), \x (hex characters), and \u (unicode characters). Also, in order to search for a literal backslash character, the backslash must be escaped such as \\. |
Replace With | Specify the replacement string to be written in place of the Search For match. Escaped characters \n, \r, and \t are permitted. In order to simply delete the Search For characters, use the ${system.emptyString} variable as the Replace With value. |
Advanced Tab | |
Case Sensitive Search | Specify whether or not to search the file(s) in case sensitive mode. The default setting is true which improves the search performance, but will not match strings that do not have the same case. Default Value: true |
Encoding | Specify the file encoding. This is required if the files are using a different encoding than the platform's default. For example, UTF-8 or US-ASCII. Default Value: The platform's default encoding |
Max Number of Replacements | Specify the maximum number of replacements to make on each file. Use this attribute to limit the replacements to a certain number of times. Each file will allow this many replacements. The default value is 0 which does not set a limit to the number of replacements Default Value: 0 - no limit |
Output Variables Tab | |
Output Files Variable | If desired, specify the name of a variable which will contain the modified output files. The variable will be of type File List and may be used in subsequent tasks that accept a File List input variable. The variable will be created if it does not exist. |
Processed Files Variable | If desired, specify the name of a variable which will contain the processed input files. The variable will be of type File List and may be used in subsequent tasks that accept a File List input variable. The variable will be created if it does not exist. |
Number of Files Processed Variable | If desired, specify the name of a variable which will contain the number of files successfully processed by this task. The variable will be created if it does not exist. |
