I want to be able to Find in File text content. Is this possible ?
Q: I want to be able to Find in File text content. Is this possible? For example, if the file contain a string in the file content, than do an operation. Is it possible in Limagito or we can only do something with the file name?
In attachment, you will find folders and files example.
–          If we find the string ST^832^ then we need to move the file in the folder « Price »
–          If we find the string ST^810^ then we need to move the file in the folder « Invoice »
So, the process should do this :
–          Move the files !EDIFile.Exaple1 and !EDIFile.Example2 in folder « Price »
–          Move the file ASSET.Example in folder « Invoice »
A: Yes this is possible using a custom script which we create for you. I’ve added some screenshots to help you.
Source is a Windows folder:
Open ‘Pascal Script’ Setup:
Enable and add the following ‘On Destination’ Pascal Script:
Var tmpFile: String; tmpList: TStringList; Const ctInvoiceSearch = 'ST^810^'; ctPriceSearch = 'ST^832^'; ctInvoiceSubDir = 'Invoice'; ctPriceSubDir = 'Price'; Begin psVSA := ''; psExitCode:= 0; // ... add your code here tmpFile := psFilePath + psFileName; tmpList := TStringList.Create; Try Try tmpList.LoadFromFile(tmpFile); // Check Invoice If pos(ctInvoiceSearch, tmpList.Text) <> 0 Then Begin psVSA := ctInvoiceSubDir; psExitCode := 1; psLogWrite(1, '', 'Destination SubDir: ' + ctInvoiceSubDir + ' for ' +tmpFile); End; // Check Price If pos(ctPriceSearch, tmpList.Text) <> 0 Then Begin psVSA := ctPriceSubDir; psExitCode := 1; psLogWrite(1, '', 'Destination SubDir: ' + ctPriceSubDir + ' for ' + tmpFile); End; // Nothing was Found If psVSA = '' Then Begin psLogWrite(1, '', 'Destination SubDir Unknown for ' + tmpFile); End; Except psLogWrite(1, '', 'Error loading ' + tmpFile); End; Finally tmpList.Free; End; End.
Set Function to ‘Move Files’:
Add ‘WIN’ as Destination
Select your Destination Directory:
Adjust the default ‘Create Subdir, option’ to: %VSA\%SFS
The reason you need to change this is because we’ want to use information from the previous Pascal Script to select the correct Subdirectory. In this example it will be ‘Price’ or ‘Invoice’.

Create subfolders ahead with Limagito File Mover
Q: We’re trying to create subfolders ahead with a rule in a following format: 2021\11 Nov21
Is it possible to do this with an empty rule eg there’s no source file to move/copy? What would be the best way to handle this? Many thanks
A: This is possible using our ‘Pascal Script’ as Source option. In this case no source files are needed.
First add ‘Pascal Script’ as Source:
Add the following Pascal Script code. Do not forget to adjust the ctPath const, end with a \
Var tmpSubPath: String; Const ctPath = 'C:\Test\Out_PSC\'; Begin psExitCode:= 1; // Create subfolders in the following format: 2021\11 Nov21 tmpSubPath := FormatDateTime('YYYY\DD MMMYY', Now); If ForceDirectories(ctPath + tmpSubPath) then psLogWrite(1, '', 'Create Directory: ' + ctPath + tmpSubPath + ', Successful') Else psLogWrite(1, '', 'Create Directory: ' + ctPath + tmpSubPath + ', Error') End.
This script will create a single subfolder when it is triggered using the current date. Of course it can be modified so it fits your needs, just let us know.
Update, received the following question from user: Is there a way to add +1 to either month or date so I can adjust as required?
1) To add a day, replace: tmpSubPath := FormatDateTime(‘YYYY\DD MMMYY’, Now);
by
tmpSubPath := FormatDateTime(‘YYYY\DD MMMYY’, psIncDay(Now, 1));
2) To add a month, replace: tmpSubPath := FormatDateTime(‘YYYY\DD MMMYY’, Now);
by
tmpSubPath := FormatDateTime(‘YYYY\DD MMMYY’, psIncMonth(Now, 1));

Corrupted TAR file, error management during unzip
Q: Error management during unzip request.
We received a broken package (TAR file) in a folder processed by Limagito. The rule is to unpack any zip or tar file arriving in that folder and then move the zip or tar file.
But for the broken package “example.tar” the file remains in the folder and is processed again and again.
22/10/2021 14:51:47 Execute: ID1[ZIP]\\nas\Media\Work\FilesUnpack\
22/10/2021 14:51:47 7z Item Count of \\nas\Media\Work\example.tar: 4
22/10/2021 14:51:47 7z Item 1, File: \\nas\Media\Work\FilesUnpack\.\example1.jpg
22/10/2021 14:51:47 7z Item 2, File: \\nas\Media\Work\FilesUnpack\.\example2.jpg
22/10/2021 14:51:47 7z Item 3, File: \\nas\Media\Work\FilesUnpack\.\example.mpg
22/10/2021 14:52:19 7z Extract Selected Exception: Data error
22/10/2021 14:52:19 UNZIP Error \\nas\Media\Work\example.tar to \\nas\Media\Work\FilesUnpack\;3560701952
The file is not moved. The process never ends. I configure the error notification by mail. And this works. What would be your advice to manage this?
EX: move the file in error in another folder.
A: In version v2021.10.30.0 we added a Pascal Script var to achieve your request. psDeleteAfterCopy which is an integer can only be used in the Destination Pascal Script (0 = error occurred, we will not delete the Source file).
Some screenshots to get you started. We assume the Source (WIN, scanning compressed files) and Destination (UNZIP) part is already setup in our File Mover. So to add error management to this setup you’ll have to add ‘Pascal Script’ as second Destination. Important, the Pascal Script must come after the UNZIP.
Add the following Pascal Script code, do not forget to adjust the crErrorPath constant, it must end with \ :
Const ctErrorPath = 'C:\Test\Error\'; Begin psExitCode:= 1; // ... add your code here If psDeleteAfterCopy = 0 Then begin If psMoveFile(psFilePath + psFileName, ctErrorPath + psFileName) Then psLogWrite(1, '', 'Moved ' + psFilePath + psFileName + ' to ' + ctErrorPath) Else psLogWrite(1, '', 'Move Error of ' + psFilePath + psFileName + ' to ' + ctErrorPath); End; End.
In case of error the source file will be moved to the ctErrorPath, in our case it is: C:\Test\Error\
