Question

Batch process gdb update


Badge

Hi,

I am fairly new to FME. I currently have 286 old gdb that consist of 15 feature classes, they needs to be updated to a new gdb. Some of the updates includes: changing a point to polygon, merging feature classes, changing fields name, and also mapping value for subtype. I have already figure out how to update an individual gdb.

I was wondering if it is possible to batch process, and update all of the gdb. Right now, I am playing around with batch deploy, but I can't seem to figure out where to start.

Can you please help me out? It would be very much appreciated :-)

Thanks,

Vincent

How about a WorkspaceRunner transformer to call your workspace from a controlling Workspace?

First Workspace reads the GDB folders using Directory and Filepath reader, and passes the values into the second Workspace that does the processing.
