FileMover Pumps¶
The two FileMover pumps are primarily meant to serve as simple examples of how to write your own pump types. There is both a Simple File Mover which simply moves all files from one directory to another, and a slightly more complex File Mover which allows you to filter based on file patterns, and iterate through subdirectories.
Simple File Mover¶
The Simple File Mover Pump is a very simple pump that simply moves files from one or more source directories to one or more destination directories periodically. It will not recurse through subdirectories
Warning
Files in your Destination directory may be overwritten by new files if they have the same name!
File Mover¶
The File Mover Pump is a pump that moves files from one or more source directories to one or more destination directories periodically. This pump differs from the Simple File Mover by adding options allowing you to perform glob file matching and filtering, as well as optionally recursing through subdirectories.
Warning
Files in your Destination directory may be overwritten by new files if they have the same name!
Configuration options¶
Define one or more file movers using these options:
- Source
The directory to move files from
- Destination
The directory to move files to
- Mode:
Choose whether files should be moved, or copied
- Recursive
Set to True to have the file mover look through all subdirectories of the Source directory.
- Pattern
Set to a Glob style pattern to specify what files to include. Only files with a matching filename will be moved.
- Ignore Pattern
Set to a Glob style pattern to specify what files to exclude from the matched files. The Ignore Pattern is applied after the matching by Pattern is done and therefor acts as a filter on matched files. For example to move all .dcm files except for those that start with foo- set Pattern = *.dcm and Ignore Pattern = foo-.
