The node (or event) can contain any number of properties (these properties appear as subelements in alien2xml output).

The definition of a property is as follows:

node.<node_name>.<property_name> = _text_
 +
or
 +
node.<node_name>.<property_name> = <node:_subnode_=_text_>
 +
where '''<code>_text_</code>''' is a text constant with any number of '''<code><nowiki>[[from:length]]</nowiki></code>''' input substring expressions.
 +
Input substring expression defines a substring of original input (or input reduced by any regex group definitions). Omitted '''<code>from</code>''' means index 0, omitted '''<code>length</code>''' means the rest of the input.
 +
 
 +
 
 +
When '''<code><node:_subnode_=_text_></code>''' is used as a value, it tells alien2xml processor that this property is a subnode and should be expanded by using appropriate '''<code>node._subnode_</code>''' definition while using '''<code>_text_</code>''' as the input.

 +
 
 +
When an item
 +
node.<node_name>.<property_name>.list_member = <regex>

is present in the definition, the property is considered to be a list of values.
 +
For PLC Device events it means the list members have keys '''<code><property_name>[_index_]</code>''' where '''<code>_index_</code>''' is a zero-based autoincremented integer.
 +
On the other hand, Alien2XML generates multiple subelements with the same name '''<code><property_name></code>'''.
 +
The input (or reduced input) is searched for any occurrences of '''<code><regex></code>''' - each matched substring is then used as the content of single list member. If there is a regex group present in '''<code><regex></code>''' the list member content is reduced to appropriate group match.

 +
 
 +
When an item
 +
node.<node_name>.<property_name>.regex = <regex>
 +
is present in the definition, it means the above value is assigned to property only if the input matches the regex '''<code><regex></code>''', otherwise it is assigned an empty value. Additionally, the current input is further reduced to any regex group if present (only for the purpose of assigning to that property).

Node/Event

The first condition for node (or event) to be created is this:

node.<node_name> = <regex>

If the input (alien input or raw device input) doesn't match the regex, any other definition rules are ignored and an empty XML element node_name (or no event) is generated. If the regex contains a group (enclosed in a parenthesis pair), the whole input is reduced to this group substring for later processing.

Properties

The node (or event) can contain any number of properties (these properties appear as subelements in alien2xml output). The definition of a property is as follows:

node.<node_name>.<property_name> = _text_

or

node.<node_name>.<property_name> = <node:_subnode_=_text_>

where _text_ is a text constant with any number of [[from:length]] input substring expressions. Input substring expression defines a substring of original input (or input reduced by any regex group definitions). Omitted from means index 0, omitted length means the rest of the input.


When <node:_subnode_=_text_> is used as a value, it tells alien2xml processor that this property is a subnode and should be expanded by using appropriate node._subnode_ definition while using _text_ as the input.


When an item

node.<node_name>.<property_name>.list_member = <regex>

is present in the definition, the property is considered to be a list of values. For PLC Device events it means the list members have keys <property_name>[_index_] where _index_ is a zero-based autoincremented integer. On the other hand, Alien2XML generates multiple subelements with the same name <property_name>. The input (or reduced input) is searched for any occurrences of <regex> - each matched substring is then used as the content of single list member. If there is a regex group present in <regex> the list member content is reduced to appropriate group match.


When an item

node.<node_name>.<property_name>.regex = <regex>

is present in the definition, it means the above value is assigned to property only if the input matches the regex <regex>, otherwise it is assigned an empty value. Additionally, the current input is further reduced to any regex group if present (only for the purpose of assigning to that property).

Other special features

node.product.item1.translate.word = slovo

Content substring replacement:

node.product.item2.pattern.1st_rule = "to\s*be\s*replaced"
node.product.item2.replace.1st_rule = replacement
node.product.item2.pattern.2nd_rule = "this\s*should\s*be\s*replaced as well"
node.product.item2.replace.2nd_rule = replacement2

Enforcing element order in generated XML:

node.product.item1.order = 1
node.product.item2.order = 2

Internal alien2xml variables can be referred to as follows:

node.product.m5sum = <internal:md5sum>

As of now, these internal variables are available:

Internal variables
md5sum MD5 sum of input
now Current date and time in format yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss.zzz
timestamp miliseconds since epoch
service Name of Alien2XML service
target_service Name of the target service
passed_caller Caller id passed in this request
passed_id Message ID passed in this request
