Hey Brian, Ya actually you're right. After thinking about this more, I ended up doing what you mention below. Only I used the workflow instance id in the filemgr product metadata instead.
It's much cleaner going this route (adding the job_id or workflow instance id to the flilemgr) instead of adding the filename to the workflow metadata. -Mike From: holenoter <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Reply-To: "[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Date: Fri, 2 Mar 2012 13:23:51 -0800 To: "[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: Re: PGE Question hey mike, why do you need the filename in the workflow metadata?... you can add the job_id to your filemgr product metadata and then you can just query the filemgr based on job_id to find out which files where created for that job. -brian On Mar 02, 2012, at 12:36 PM, "Cayanan, Michael D (388J)" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hi, In my PGE, I specify my output like the following: <output> <dir path="[ProductLocation]" createBeforeExe="true"> <files regExp="SMAP_L0B_RADAR_SPS.*\.h5" metFileWriterClass="[MetFileWriter]" args="[ConfigMetoutFile]" /> <files name="[PGETask_Name]_RunConfig_[ProductionDateTime].xml" metFileWriterClass="[MetFileWriter]" args="[RunConfigMetoutFile]" /> </dir> </output> After ingestion of this output product, I'd like to save the filename in my workflow metadata. How would I do this? I tried creating a PostIngestSuccess action, but found out that whatever metadata saving you want to do on the "crawler" side doesn't get passed back to the workflow metadata. I suppose I could update the workflow metadata by creating a PostIngestSuccess action and using the workflow manager client API to do this. However, when I look at this class, I see the following method, updateMetadataForWorkflow(String workflowInstId, Metadata metadata) where it requires the workflow instance ID as a parameter. Is there a way to capture the workflow instance ID into the workflow metadata so that I can leverage this method to update my metadata? Thanks, Mike
