NAME Datahub::Factory - A conveyor belt which transports data from a data source to a data sink. SYNOPSIS dhconveyor [ARGUMENTS] [OPTIONS] DESCRIPTION Datahub::Factory is a command line conveyor belt which automates three tasks: Data is fetched automatically from a local or remote data source. Data is converted to an exchange format. The output is pushed to a data sink. Datahub::Factory fetches data from several sources as specified by the Importer settings, executes a Fix and sends it to a data sink, set by Exporter. Several importer and exporter modules are supported. Datahub::Factory contains Log4perl support to monitor conveyor belt operations. Note: This toolset is not a generic tool. It has been tailored towards the functional requirements of the Flemish Art Collection use case. CONFIGURATION Command line options All commands share the following switches: --log_level Set the log_level. Takes a numeric parameter. Supported levels are: 1 (WARN), 2 (INFO), 3 (DEBUG). WARN (1) is the default. --log_output Selects an output for the log messages. By default, it will send them to STDERR (pass STDERR as parameter), but STDOUT (STDOUT) and a log file (logs/import_-date-.log) (STATISTICS) are also supported. COMMANDS help COMMAND Documentation about command line options. It is possible to provide either all importer and/or exporter options on the command line, or to create a pipeline configuration file that sets those options. transport [OPTIONS] Fetch data from a local or remote source, convert it to an exchange format and export the data. PLUGINS Datahub::Factory uses a plugin-based architecture, making it easy to extend with new functionality. New commands can be added by creating a Perl module that contains a command_name.pm file in the lib/Datahub/Factory/Command path. Datahub::Factory uses the Datahub::Factory::Command namespace and App::Cmd internally. New Datahub::Factory::Importer, Exmporter and Fixer plugins can be added in the same way, in the lib/Datahub/Factory/Importer, Exporter or Fixer path. All plugins use the Datahub::Factory::Importer/Exporter/Fixer namespace and the namespace package as a Moose::Role.
