    Text Character Encoding Conversion

    Dear Users,

    In v2019.05.19.0 we’ve added an option to convert the character encoding of text files.

    To achieve this we’ve added the following Pascal Script: psChangeTxtEncodingExt

    Function psChangeTxtEncodingExt(Source, Destination: String; SrcEncoding, DstEncoding: Integer; WriteBOM: Boolean): Boolean;

    • Source: Source File
    • Destination: Destination File
    • SrcEncoding: Encoding ID Source (please check list below)
    • DstEncoding: Encoding ID Destination (please check list below)
    • WriteBOM: Write BOM Destination File (Normally True)

    The function is also able to read the encoding tag of xml source files and automatically set the source encoding ID.

     

    In the following example we’re going to convert EBCDIC Codepage 273 (German) text files to UTF8.

    > Be sure to add and set a file filter so it will only handle text files (txt, xml, …)

    >Add a Pascal Script as Destination

    Const
  ctOutputPath = 'C:\Test\In_Patrick\Out\';
Begin
  psExitCode:= 0;
  // Source File: EBCDIC in EBCDIC Codepage 273 (German) or Codepage 1141 (German incl. EUR-Sign)
  // Destination File: UTF8
  // https://limagito.com/text-character-encoding-conversion/

  If psChangeTxtEncodingExt(psFilePath + psFileName, ctOutputpath + psFileName, 20273, 65001, True) Then
  Begin
    psLogWrite(1, '', 'Conversion to ' + ctOutputpath + psFileName + ' Successful');
    psExitCode:= 1;
  End;

End.

    > RunTime Log Result

    The function is able to convert quite some encodings:

    We have our own Encoding ID’s:

    EncodingID Additional information 
0          UTF8
1          UTF7
2          Unicode
3          Default
4          Big Endian Unicode
5          ASCII
6          ANSI
7          Reserved
8          Reserved
9          XML Auto Encoding detection (Source Only)

    But also all Windows Encoding ID’s can be used:

    XLS as Destination, Part 2

    Dear users,

    v2019.5.5.0

    If you missed the first parts: https://limagito.com/xls-as-destination/

    We’ve add the following new options to the XLS(X)/CSV as Destination option.

    Sheets, delete options:

    With this option you can select which sheets you want to delete using index or name of the sheet(s). Remember, the sheet index starts at 1.

    With the setup in the screenshot below we are going to delete the sheet with index 5 AND the sheet with name ‘SheetNameToDelete’.

    Colums, delete options:

    With this option you can select which columns you want to delete on a selected sheet. The selection of the sheet is possible using index or name of the sheet. Remember, column and sheet indexes start at 1.

    With the setup in the screenshot below we are going to delete column with index 2 on sheet with index 1.

    Rows, delete options:

    With this option you can select which rowss you want to delete on a selected sheet. The selection of the sheet is possible using index or name of the sheet. Remember, row and sheet indexes start at 1.

    With the setup in the screenshot below we are going to delete row with index 1 on sheet with index 1.

    Cell Values, rename options:

    With this option you can rename cell values in rows and colmuns on a selected sheet. The selection of the sheet is possible using index or name of the sheet. Remember, row , column and sheet indexes start at 1 (value = 0 = all rows/columns).

    With the setup in the screenshot below we are going to rename all columns of the first row on sheet with index 1. The text part ‘Before’ will be replaced by ‘After’ if the cell type is ‘Text’ (String).

    Please let us know if you have any question or need help with the setup

    Regards,

    Lilmagito Team,

    Pascal

    Logging Database, delete old records

    Dear users,

    Version v2019.5.1.0

    We got a request to delete old records from the File Mover Logging Database. We added ‘Qry Type’ as option to the existing ‘SQL as Source’ to achieve this.

    • Add SQL as Source

    • Set Database Vendor to ‘Use MSSQL Database’

    • Set the MSSQL Server settings of the Logging Database

    • Set Qry Type option to ‘Qry will NOT return data’. Adjust the amount of days you want to keep. At the example below it is set to delete records older than 100 days (adjust the -100 part).

    • Add a ‘dummy’ Pascal Script’ as Destination

    • Set a schedule so trigger this Rule

     

    Best regards,

    Limagito Team
