transmogrify.nitf.import.sourcedirectory

Process an string that contain a representation of an xml.

Options:

directory:

Reference for a directory inside the package or an absolute path. If is set the blueprint lookup for images, referenced in the xml, inside that directory. The idea of this is reduce the time of import avoiding download the image from the network. Also allows run the import in locations where the connectivity is restricted. To be capable of access to the images, is necessary to avoiding name collisions, create a directory structure that emulates the server name and path of the original url.

Example:

If the src image attribute is:

http://example.net/images/picture.jpg

And the option 'directory' is '/foo/bar', then the image must be located in:

/foo/bar/example.net/images/picture.jpg

This could be create in a easy way with the command wget, the only thing that you need is a file with the url for all images (ex: images.list) and then run the command as bellow:

$ wget -nc -x -i images.list

Configuration examples:

[sourcedirectory]
blueprint = transmogrify.nitf.import.sourcedirectory
directory = transmogrify.nitf:data
suffix = xml

[xmlprocessor]
blueprint = transmogrify.nitf.xmlsource.xmlprocessor
directory = transmogrify.nitf:data/images
