Common Property Files
inc_common.properties is an idiom you can adopt to configure all of the common settings across your workflows instead of configuring on a per processor basis - which you can do if you choose.
Common Settings
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
service.name | the name of your integration - this will appear in logs when your integration runs, e.g. “starting service.name”, “finished processing service.name”. |
data.charset | the character set to use for data in your integration - defaults to utf-8. |
data.source | the origin of the data for your integration - could be a business process or something related to a business process, etc. |
data.type | this is the functional type of data in the integration: invoice, sales data, inventory, etc. |
debug.mode | set the debug mode - see Debug Modes below. |
environment | TEDI is environment agnostic, but if you send your logs from all of your environments to the same log-aggregator, you can use environment to differentiate the logs entries. |
storage.type | file or memory. see Storage Types below. |
storage.retention | if using storage.type=file, storage.retention controls how long to persist the data on disk prior to purging. |
Debug Modes
Debug modes are used to mainly aid troubleshooting.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
discard | the integration will run, but silently discards the received content. Use this settings when you want to effectively disable the integration. |
verbose | increase logging output. |
logAndDiscard | like discard, but will log the content first and then discard it. |
logAndContinue | like logAndDiscard except the integration will continue to excute. |
Storage Types
The storage type controls where TEDI writes content: in memory or to disk.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
memory | TEDI will not persist any content to disk. All data in transit will be completely persisted to memory - nothing will be written to disk. |
file | Will persist the content to disk. Use file when you’re dealing with big files or when you regularly need to view the content for production support, etc. that moved thru TEDI. |
