Attributes

Pacemaker Import Community provides the command import:attributes command for the attribute import.

The individual parts of the file name must match the pattern as followed:

Example: attribute-import_20190608-114344_01.csv

<IMPORT-DIRECTORY>/<PREFIX>_<FILENAME>_<COUNTER>.<SUFFIX>

<IMPORT-DIRECTORY>:

is by default the loation of your working directory <ROOT-DIRECTORY>/var/pacemaker/import/

The var/pacemaker/import directory is not created after the installation by default
- see described instruction how to create the import directory

PREFIX:

The <PREFIX> of the import filename represents the attribute-import area.

DELIMITER ( _ ):

The mandatory Delimiter ( _ ) for the import filename between <PREFIX> and <FILENAME> is a underscore ( _ ).

FILENAME:

The filename is a autogenerated combination of date and time.

As a result, the filename look like attribute-import_20190608-114344_01.csv.

DELIMITER ( _ ):

The mandatory Delimiter ( _ ) for the structured filename between <FILENAME> and <COUNTER> is underscore ( _ ).

COUNTER:

is a incremental number with two digits starting with 01.

SUFFIX (filename extension):

The Pacemaker Import Community uses the <SUFFIX> .csv as default for the import files.

.OK file:

In addition, the appropriate .ok file is needed (see cli import commands).

Bunch import:

The Bunch import requires the same predefined filename structure as described.

Your CSV file var/pacemaker/import/attribute-import_20190608-114344_01.csv is now ready for import.

Unique identifier

The unique identifier for the attribute import is the attribute code
The attribute code is a mandatory field available in the column attribute_code on every row of the CSV file
