I created a process to rename and resize jpgs in workbench, and able to select multiple jpgs or directory to run my process, but I am not able to make the process do this when I upload to FME server.

 

 

Thanks,

 

Chad

I am also trying to carry over jpeg attributes to a jpeg writer.

In order to help you, a little more information about what exactly is not working when you put it on the server would help.

I need to be able to have the published parameter able to select multiple files at one time. When I upload the process to server you can only select one file at a time. In workbench you can select multiple files at once. I was also wanting to see if it is possible to attach the attributes of the source jpeg (it has original data, camera make and model, etc). FME reads the attributes I attach to writer but it will not write them out.

How are you getting the files from the user to the server?

They would upload them manually, as needed. It is set up as a user paramter.

@tbs_gis_team, I believe I am having the similar question. Did you ever find a solution?

It is possible to zip the files before uploading to FMEserver. However, that is not ideal in my situation, dynamically zipping up files in a web application is a bit problematic and time consuming...

Hi, why not use the Directory watch publication protocol on a resource location or a network location? this way uploading the files is just a matter of copying them.

Great idea, @itay! I think we can write a service for uploading file to a resource location where the directory watch publisher will trigger the workspace that transforms the data to the back-end database.

Just be aware that the directory watcher (depending on the fme server) has done known issues and most of the times an inetrmediate filtering step is necessary.
