Hi, I attempted to use SchemaMapper for the migration of data. In general successful, however, in the Mapping Excelsheet I defined a rule to add an attribute, which uses a string function in the "NewValue" column. I can use the functions @Timestamp and @Value, however, the functions @ReplaceString or @ReplaceRegEx fail, and FME (2017.1 build 17652) is complaining "This FME edition does not recognize the `ReplaceRegEx' function." Is there a list of functions available that are recognized by SchemaMapper? The functions work fine from e.g. AttributeCreator.
Hi
You can use all functions but some – string and date functions - have to be wwjd encoded and wrapped in @EvaluateExpresion(). Mat functions have to be wrapped in @Evaluate().
For example must this expression @ReplaceRegEx(@Value(etableringstidspunkt),)<>=],"") look like this @EvaluateExpression(unused1,<at>ReplaceRegEx<openparen><at>Value<openparen>etableringstidspunkt<closeparen><comma><openbracket><lt><gt>=<closebracket><comma><quote><quote><closeparen>,unused2)
What I do is to have the mapping in a database and then use sql or an function to do the wwjd encoding.
I gave a talk about this in Copenhagen and Bonn at the World Tour, you can find my presentation here https://dataflow.center/references/fme-world-tour-2019/index.html here you can find the Oracle function I use to do the wwjd encoding with
