PostgreSQL Scirpt (.SQL)

Instead of directly writing in it, is there any way to write an SQL script to run at an appropriate time while using PostgreSQL reader/writer?

I am trying to assemble three different sets of output data, adds, edits and deletes into a geodatabase

I am trying to assemble several datasets into one. I need to add the edited or added data in to our original/master/parent/production data set. I also need to delete the data that should be deleted. I have a separate feature class for the added, edited and deleted data. I am not sure how to delete data from the original geodatabase. I think that I am getting two ids for the added and edited when they are added to the output/published geodatabase.

How to merge or assemble similar types of data in to one large dataset? These are ESRI feature classes. I would like to use the city’s SDE geodatabase as the reader source.

I am trying to merge or assemble several feature classes of water pipe data together, they have similar but not exactly similar schemas. They are Water, Reclaimed water and their laterals as separate feature classes. I am working on the feature merger tool. I thought that the swizler would work, but I could not get it to run. I also want to merge data within a feature class, deleting several items.

Controlling scale in geospatial pdf

I am trying to create a series of geospatial pdf files that are at a fixed scale. The overall map extents of my data varies and when I generate my pdf files each sizes to fit the frame which results in different scales for each file. Is there a way to force each to be the same set scale. I thought about creating a box that would give me the desired scale at my frame size and then centering this box over each area. Is there another easier method for setting the scale that I am overlooking? I have only been working with the pdf writer for a short time so I could very easily be missing something.

FME Server (2012 SP 2) - Direct Workbenches to only run on a particular Engine

G'day, Is it possible to configure FME Server that only a certain Engine will run certain Workbenches and if so, what property within FME Workbench could be set for FME Server to detect? Cheers,

Migrating the FME Talk Google archives

Just saw Mark's latest Evangelist posting on the FME Community Answers. In it he comments that our FME Talk archive cannot be migrated to form part of the new FME Community Answers knowledge base ... >> What we can’t do is move the entire set of previous posts from FMETalk to Community Answers. There are just way too many of them (nearly 27,000 by my count) and there’s no way I know to download them all. However, what we’ll do is leave to group open for viewing, so any useful information in there won’t be lost. I use the FME Talk archives on a regular basis and there are some real “how-to” gems in there that will likely become marginalised. If we cannot port the FMETalk arhive could we perhaps instead build a web form inside FME Community Answers that still lets us do searchable keyword queries against the FMETalk archive? Another option may be this utility - http://www.httrack.com/ - it may let Safe download the Google content and rebuild the FMETalk archive on local Safe servers. If

Can I add a reader for a complete folder?

I would like to add a reader, which reads all files (of a specific type) in one folder. Is this possible in FME?

DWG Writer

Hi, I write DWG Autocad Files 2004. If I open the DWG File with the Autocad DWG TrueView I didn't find the graphic, because the zoom window is far away. It's difficult to find the graphic. What can I do? Thanks a lot Ulf

Remove fme format attributes from Generic Reader

Generic Reader is outputting extra fme format attributes. Eg: mapinfo_symbol_color db_type jpeg_type csv_number_of_fields I want to drop all these attributes leaving only the 'native' attributes but it is hard to do this with a text filter since the pattern varies depending on the input format. Any ideas? Unfortunately I can't just ignore them in the writer because I am writing the list of attributes to a string.
