File Storage Extension

The File Storage extension provides reading and writing of formatted files on local disk or reading from publicly accessible URLs.

Note: This is a Binary Storage Extension that is only used in combination with File Format extensions.

Settings

Source and sink settings both require a FilePath parameter, which should specify a path to a formatted file or folder containing multiple json-files. The path can be either absolute or relative to the application.

Source

Gzip, bzip2, and zlib compressed files are automatically detected by file extension (.gz, .bz2, and .zz, respectively) and decompressed, when "None" is specified as "Compression".

{
    "FilePath": "",
    "Compression": "None" | "Gzip" | "Brotli" | "Deflate"
}

Sink

Use parameter Compression to enable compression of output file. The relevant extension is automatically added to the file name, if missing.

It is possible to build further upon a file by setting the Append parameter to true. Note however that it is not compatible with any compression methods, as the result a concatenation of multiple compressed files.

{
    "FilePath": "",
    "Compression": "None" | "Gzip" | "Brotli" | "Deflate",
    "Append": false
}
