You can use the Filesystem Adapter in three ways: statically, dynamically, and in a mixed mode between both. Item | Description |
---|
Static | Static access means that the path to the file/directory is defined statically to the service via an alias. Every time you use an operation of the Filesystem adapter, you need to select the related alias on the operation. The attributes of the alias are static within a service but can be changed in the service settings. | Dynamic | Dynamic file access means that the path to the file/directory has to be provided manually via input parameters for every usage of an operation of the Filesystem adapter. | Mixed | You can also mix static and dynamic file access. All attributes that have been assigned to an adapter call via the related alias can still be overwritten manually. Or, you can configure only some attributes on the alias, and provide others dynamically. This way, you can e.g. specify a base directory using a DirectoryAlias, and write different files to that directory. Or, specify a default encoding and write different files. | |
