Hi,
I'm trying to get the links from this URL using the CSV reader but it does not work: https://data.geo.admin.ch/ch.swisstopo-vd.amtliche-vermessung/meta.txt Using an HTTP Caller did not work either. If I paste the link in a browser it works fine. Any idea what I am doing wrong? Thank you for your help!
I'm not able to process this either. Viewing in a browser works fine, from there you can save it as a local file and process that, which works too, but that's probably not a feasible long-time workflow.
The HTTPCaller gives this error: HTTPCaller(HTTPFactory): HTTP/FTP transfer error: 'Unrecognized or bad HTTP Content or Transfer-Encoding'
Which makes me wonder if it's something on the server side that's throwing off FME.
I can confirm that even FME 2018 doesn't seem to manage reading from this URL, neither the CSV reader, Text File reader or the HTTPCaller. It may be worth signalling to Safe support as a possible bug.
As a workaround, try the following in a PythonCreator:
import fmeobjects
import urllib2
class FeatureCreator(object):
def __init__(self):
pass
def input(self,feature):
data = urllib2.urlopen('https://data.geo.admin.ch/ch.swisstopo-vd.amtliche-vermessung/meta.txt')
for line in data:
url, date = line.split(' ')
newFeature = fmeobjects.FMEFeature()
newFeature.setAttribute('url', url)
newFeature.setAttribute('date', date)
self.pyoutput(newFeature)
def close(self):
pass
Remenber to expose the attributes 'url' and 'date'.
