  • Hi, i want to read a compressed file within a python caller. It works fine, as long as i reference to a *.gz file located in the file system of my pc.

 However, I would like to directly read the same file from a URL.

Therefore, i have changed the published parameter accordingly (see screenshot attached). The following error messages is produced:

Emptying factory pipeline

Any ideas what I do wrong?

 

 

You'll need to first download the file in your python caller. You can either write some python code to do that or you can use an HTTPCaller in FME to first download the files to somewhere on your system. If you don'T want to keep the file you can use a TempPathNameCreator which will give you a path name where you download your file to- the path will get deleted at the end of the workspace

 

Thanks a lot. I've choosen the http-caller approach, it works fine. I first thought that directly reading from the web source would be smarter. However, temporarily keeping the data in the file system is also ok.
