Copy Workflow Operation

ID: copy

Description

The copy operation can be used to copy media package elements to a given target directory.

Parameter Table

Configuration Key	Example	Description
source-flavors	presenter/source	Comma-separated list of source-flavors
source-tags	archive	Comma-separated list of source-tags
target-directory*	/mnt/mydisk	The directory where the file is copied to
target-filename	test	The optional target filename. The file extension extract from the media package element URI will be appended

* mandatory configuration key

Notes:

• source-flavors and source-tags may be used both together to select media package elements based on both flavors and tags
• In case that neither source-flavors nor source-tags are specified, the operation will be skipped
• In case no media package elements match source-flavors and source-tags, the operation will be skipped

Target Filenames

If target-filename is not specified, the filename for each media package element is extracted from the media package element URI. If target-filename is specified, the filename is the result of appending the file extension (extracted from the media package element URI) to target-filename. In case the source-flavors and source-tags match multiple media package elements, a sequentially increasing integer number (starting at 1) can be used within target-filename in Java string formatting manner to ensure unique filenames.
