Apama EPL Plugin for interacting with the filesystem from within Apama. Linux & Windows
To build the plugin, first ensure you have sourced the apama_env script in your current shell. This script can be found inside the bin directory of your Apama installation.
xpybuild is a python2 based cross platform build system. If you do not already have xpybuild installed, a submodule is provided in this repository which can be initialised with the following command:
git submodule init && git submodule update
Then, run the xpybuild script from the top level:
xpybuild/xpybuild.py
This will build the plugin and copy the resulting library to your APAMA_WORK/lib directory. Many options are available for customising builds; please see the xpybuild doc or --help text for further information.
A makefile is also provided for users without python. To build, navigate to the plugin directory and execute the following commands:
make;
make install;
This will build the plugin and copy the resulting library to your APAMA_WORK/lib directory.
To build the documentation, execute the following commands from the top level:
java -jar $APAMA_HOME/lib/ap-generate-apamadoc.jar plugin/doc plugin/
To run the the tests, first ensure you have sourced the apama_env script in your current shell. This script can be found inside the bin directory of your Apama installation. Next, navigate to the tests directory and execute the following commands:
pysys run;
To use the plugin, first inject FilePlugin.mon, then use the static actions on the com.apamax.plugins.Filesystem event to perform various filesystem operations. All actions throw an exception upon error.
