SAP PI/PO – Content Conversion plus Java Mapping – ZIDOC

webadmin

I would like to share one a proof of concept that later one became a project, the solution was to read a text/plain file from FTP/SFTP server and generate the ZIDOC but the text/plain file was not possible to make clear content conversion configuration because it’s not (CSV) file and there was no pattern for reading line by line from the file.

In this case, I developed one generic structure XML to read line by line from the TEXT/PLAIN and the content conversion mechanism generates the generic XML, with the complex java mapping (DOM parsing) the SAP PI system was able to generate the ZIDOC structure dynamically.

I will provide you the explain using the FTP Sender adapter and SFTP Sender Adapter with the Module Standard: AF_Modules/MessageTransformBean to Plain2XMLService.

Integration Diagram:

Inbound interface – FILE to ZIDOC – Sender FTP adapter with content conversion to read the text/plain and generate the generic XML file that will be transformed via java mapping into the ZIDOC with dynamic tags.

Integration Development Steps:

1. Repository:

  • Data Type and Message Type (Content Conversion Generic)
  • Imported Archives – JavaMapping
  • Operation Mapping

2. Directory:

Party / Business Components / SFTP Channels

Process steps – Repository:

  • Data Type and Message Type (Content Conversion Generic):

I created this data type definition to use the content conversion in the Sender FTP Channel to be able to read the input text/plain from the print in a generic format.

Sample of file – text/plain:

I post just part of input text/plain because the file it’s quite big.

Content conversion Sender – FTP Channel – Configuration:

Look at the data type details to understand why I proceed with this configuration detail

Configuration details:

  • Root Tag: FileGeneric
  • Namespace: http://namespace
  • RecordSet Structure: Generic,* – Means that it’s 0:unbound the (,*)
  • Generic.fieldNames – Create the child tags Code and Description
  • Generic.fieldFixedLenghts – FixValues 7 for code and 100 for description.
Name Value
Generic.fieldNames  Code,Description
Generic.fieldFixedLenghts  7,100 
ignoreRecordsetName  true 

Sender FTP Adapter Configuration:

The Configuration detail for SFTP Sender adapter:

Module Name Type  Module Key 
AF_Modules/MessageTransformBean Local Enterprise Bean  PlainToXML 

Module parameters:

Module Key Parameter Name   Parameter Value 
PlainToXML  Transform.class com.sap.aii.af.sdk.xi.adapter.Conversion 
PlainToXML  xml.conversionType  SimplePlain2XML 
PlainToXML  xml.documentName  FileGeneric 
PlainToXML  xml.fieldNames  Code 
PlainToXML  xml.fieldNames  Description 
PlainToXML  xml.encoding  UTF-8 
PlainToXML  xml.structureTitle  Generic 

SAP PI Reading the text/plain to XML:

After proceeding with the configuration of content conversion or using the standard module AF_Modules/MessageTransformBean the result of text/plain to XML.

Check how is the generic XML file.

One of the requirements was to develop a dynamic tag-based on how many values K0001/N and K0004/N the file contents.

These codes contain the most important measure values that the ZIDOC needs, then this can be dynamic (10 or 20 or 32 values or N).

Sample Text/Plain:

K0001/1
16.282448
