Interface ContentProcessor

public interface ContentProcessor

Interface to be implemented by OSGI services meant for processing watch-folder inputs. An implementation should register itself with the OSGI container as a provider of the ContentProcessor interface, using custom properties which can be used in a filter for uniquely identifying it among other registered ContentProcessor implementations.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	processInputs(ProcessorContext context) Implementations of this method should read the watch-folder input from the supplied context, process the input as per their own internal logic and write the outputs back to the context.

Method Detail

processInputs

void processInputs(ProcessorContext context)
            throws Exception

Implementations of this method should read the watch-folder input from the supplied context, process the input as per their own internal logic and write the outputs back to the context. Outputs written back to the context will ultimately be written out as physical files in the results sub-folder of the watch-folder. If an exception is thrown during input processing, it will be written out as a log file in the failures sub-folder of the watch-folder along with the original input.

Parameters:

context - The context which supplies the watch-folder inputs and configuration parameters, and acts as a placeholder for the results to be written out.

Throws:

Exception - If an error occurs during input processing.
