Hello,
I have a .cal file saved in python to create a unique identifier. How can I use this in FME? I didn't create this so I don't know how to tie this to the field needed.
In Arcmap I could just right click the field I want this to go in and field calculate it, but how would I use this to update attributes with nulls in a specific field within fme.
import uuid
def f():
return "{" + str(uuid.uuid4()).upper() + "}"
__esri_field_calculator_splitter__
f()

In a PythonCaller you can do:
import uuid
def FeatureProcessor(feature):
value = uuid.uuid4()
feature.setAttribute('my_uuid', '{%s}' % value)This will add the attribute 'my_uuid' to every feature that passes through.
