Example: Using the AsapSink ComponentLocate this document in the navigation structure

Associate the FilePollSource (reader) component with the AsapSink (writer) component. The FilePollSource component reads records from file on the disk (insert.txt) and transfers those records to the AsapSink component. The AsapSink component then publishes those records to Event Stream Processor.

Prerequisites

The cluster database stores configuration information. Ensure that the cluster is running, so that the adapter can interact with the projects on the cluster.

Procedure

  1. Set the user name and password in the example environment:
    Operating System Step
    Windows
    1. Edit the set_example_env.bat script
    2. Set the ADAPTER_EXAMPLE_USERNAME and ADAPTER_EXAMPLE_PASSWORD variables to the desired user name/password combination.
    3. If SSL is enabled, set ADAPTER_EXAMPLE_CLUSTER_NODE_PROTOCOL to esps. If it is disabled, set it to esp.
    UNIX
    1. Edit the set_example_env.sh script
    2. Set the ADAPTER_EXAMPLE_USERNAME and ADAPTER_EXAMPLE_PASSWORD variables to the desired user name/password combination.
    3. If SSL is enabled, set ADAPTER_EXAMPLE_CLUSTER_NODE_PROTOCOL to esps. If it is disabled, set it to esp.
  2. Start SAP Event Stream Processor.
    Operating System Step
    Windows Open a command window:
    1. Start the cluster:

      start_server_cluster.bat

    2. Add project to the cluster, and start it on the cluster:

      start_project.bat

    UNIX Open a terminal window:
    1. Start the cluster:

      ./start_server_cluster.sh

    2. Start the project on the cluster:

      ./start_project.sh

  3. Start streamingsubscribe to subscribe to the project that is running on the cluster.
    Operating System Step
    Windows Open a command window and enter:

    streamingsubscribe.bat

    UNIX Open a terminal window and enter:

    ./streamingsubscribe.sh

  4. Start the FilePollSource and AsapSink components.
    Operating System Step
    UNIX Open a terminal window and enter:

    ./fileToAsap.sh

    Windows Open a command window and enter:

    fileToAsap.bat

    The FilePollSource components reads from the insert.txt file and passes records to AsapSink to publish to the Server.
  5. In the fileToAsap.props file, change adaptor.FILESOURCE.InputFileName to insert_withNULL.txt, and run again.
