Hello,
I would like to fanout CityGML-files depending on an attribute. As far as I know, I can use the dataset fanout. On CityGML-data it creates a subfolder and a CityGML-file in it, which have both the same name. The featuretype-fanout won't work (I guess), because I have to define roofsurfaces, wallsurfaces etc. there.
So is there a way to fanout CityGML without subfolders having all files in one outputfolder at the end?
Here are two citygml-files. Try to export them with fanout-option so you can get the same fme_basenames without any subdirectorys. The writer should look like this (perhaps without Address):
Must it only work in workbench or has the workspace to be served by fme server?
It should work in workbench, but without any batch-scripts. I know, I can do it with .bat-files, reading one file after the other, starting the FME several times.
But in my case, I am creating the citygml-files within FME and want to use the fanout afterwards. So I don't use a reader to get them into FME, like the examples I posted earlier.
You can use a featurewriter and a systemcaller to do the trick:
The systemcaller will use a ROBOCOPY command.
You can also solve this by:
let me know what you prefer.
Thank you very much for the help!
The featurewriter and systemcaller with robocopy worked for me. I had to adjust a few things, so the featurewriter has seperate featuretypes like citymodel, building, wallsurface etc. and I am able to choose the save-drawner with a public Parameter on start. So everything is fine now.
