Overview

The MockAgent is a sample implementation of an Agent used for testing. It creates new records in a configurable interval, sending add request to the AgentController. A record can contain the following attributes:

  • Identifier
  • MimeType
  • LastModifiedDate
  • Content

Agent configuration

The example configuration file called "mockAgent.xml" is located at configuration/org.eclipse.smila.connectivity.framework.

Defining Schema: org.eclipse.smila.connectivits.framework.agent.mock/schemas/MockDataSourceConnectionConfigSchema.xsd.

Agent configuration explanation

The root element of agent configuration is DataSourceConnectionConfig and contains the following sub elements:

  • DataSourceID – the identification of a data source
  • SchemaID – specifies the schema for the data source
  • DataConnectionID – describes which agent or crawler should be used
    • Crawler – service id a Crawler
    • Agent – service id of an Agent
  • CompoundHandling – specify if packed data (like a zip containing files) should be unpack and files within should be processed(YES or NO).
  • Attributes – list all attributes provided by the data source
    • Attribute
      • Type (required) – the data type (String, Integer or Date).
      • Name (required) – attributes name.
      • HashAttribute – specify if a hash should be created (true or false).
      • KeyAttribute – creates a key for this object, for example for record id (true or false).
      • Attachment – specify if the attribute return the data as attachment of record.
  • Process – contains parameters for the agent business logic.
    • SleepTime – the number of seconds to wait betweeen creation of records.


MockAgent configuration example

  </Process>
</DataSourceConnectionConfig>

Output example

A record created by the MockAgent will have the following structure:

<Record xmlns="http://www.eclipse.org/smila/record" version="1.0">
  <Id xmlns="http://www.eclipse.org/smila/id" version="1.0">
    <!-- Element name must be Source, not _Source, it's made due to syntax coloring problem in wiki -->
    <_Source>mockAgent</_Source>
    <Key name="Path">1241449855624</Key>
  </Id>
  <A n="LastModifiedDate">
    <L>
      <V t="datetime">2009-05-04 16:44:46.541</V>
    </L>
