Wrting to a file

[Dushi]

Hi All,

I am trying to write a simple java script to get the encoded message and writ it to a file. This script will be in the postprocessor.

But it doesn't work

var log1file="D:\TEST\log1.txt";
var ReportBody=(messageObject.getEncodedData());
FileUtil.write(log1file, true, "ReportBody");

Any help much appreciated.

Thank you.

Thank you.

One problem is that you aren't escaping the backslashes in your filename, so it's actually "D:TESTlog1.txt" (or it might throw an exception.. I forget how Rhino handles that). Really the only other problem is that ReportBody is in quotes, when it shouldn't be. You should also be using Apache Commons, because FileUtil is deprecated...

org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils.write(new java.io.File('D:/TEST/log1.txt'),true,messageObject.getEncodedData());

EDIT: Fixed code:

org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils.write(new java.io.File('D:/TEST/log1.txt'),messageObject.getEncodedData(),true);

Thank you for the prompt reply.
It's still not working:

sorry.. dont' have much knowledge in scripting.

Yeah sorry, I got the parameters mixed up: FileUtils.write

[Dushi]

I just realised that it's sending the raw messages not the encoded message, where the script clearing saying encoded.

any ideas please?

That's because you're doing that code in your postprocessor, where you don't natively have access to the message objects of your destinations. The easiest way around that is to place whatever you need in the channel map, and then using it in the postprocessor.

Hi

I am still struggling with this..

I have created couple of mappers and JavaScript, all in the destination transformer.


Variable: log1file
Mapping: 'D:/TEST/log1.txt'

Variable: messagetext
Mapping: messageObject.getEncodedData()

Then the JS :

FileUtil.write($('log1file'), true, $('messagetext'));

This way I get an empty file created!!! I am not sure where I am going wrong here.

Thanks.

Well, it looks like you're using the com.mirth version again. Not that it's inherently bad, but it is deprecated. Try this:

org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils.write(new java.io.File($('log1file').toString()),$('messagetext').toString(),true);

Also, you put those variables in the channel map right (not the connector map)?

[Dushi]

Yes the variables are in channel map.

I copied your code and tried again, getting the same result. Empty file. :-(
