Using API for Integrator Processing Automation

Depending on the requirements for the processing, the API processing automation could be implemented using four different techniques.

• 1. For synchronous execution of the Integrator projects with components connected using control connections:

  2. dim prj

  3. set prj = CreateObject( “Integrator.Integrator”)

  4. prj.OpenProject “<project_path>”

  5. prj.Run “<component_name>”

  6. For synchronous execution of components and component’s functions individually regardless of their connectivity:

  7. dim prj, comp

  8. set prj = CreateObject( “Integrator.Integrator”)

  9. prj.OpenProject “<project_path>”

  10. set comp = prj.GetItem(“<component_name>”)

  11. comp.Convert                   ‘assuming comp is a TextConverter

  12. For execution with or without control connections.

  13. dim trg

  14. set trg = CreateObject( “Scripter.Target” )

  15. trg.RunTargetProject  “<project_path>?comp=<component_name>&var=<var_name>&procdata=<arguments>”,  <async>

  16. <project_path> - pathname of the Integrator project file.

  17. <var_name> - control variable name to start the processing from ('Start' if omitted). 

  18. <component_name> - component name to start the processing from.

  19. <arguments> - a string containing arguments in user defined format.

  20. <async>  - bullion value: true - asynchronous execution, false - synchronous execution.

  21.  Command line syntax.

  22. TargetLoader.exe  “<project_path>?comp=<component_name>”
