File Component In Mule Demo

Abstract

• The main motto of this PPT is how to use File component in our applications.

Introduction

• The File connector allows your Mule application to exchange files with a file system. You can implement the File connector as an inbound endpoint (such as, a message source), or as an outbound endpoint. This endpoint implements a one-way exchange pattern only.

Example

• .mflow• <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

• <mule xmlns:file="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/file" xmlns="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/core" xmlns:doc="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/documentation" xmlns:spring="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" version="EE-3.4.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-current.xsd

• http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/file http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/file/current/mule-file.xsd">

• <flow name="FileFlow1" doc:name="FileFlow1">• <file:inbound-endpoint path=“Source file location" moveToDirectory=“Destination file location"

responseTimeout="10000" doc:name="File"/>• <logger message="--file is successfully picked" level="INFO" doc:name="Logger"/>• </flow>• </mule>
