fileset-local reading a specific file extension

[Henry Tsou]

Hi,

We are trying to read an inbound HL7 transaction that a card system creates.  It creates several files at a time but we just need the file with .hl7 extension.  Is this done by the inbound TPS?  Anyone has an example?

thanks in advance.

Henry,

You would use the DirParse UPoC specified in the Fileset Protocol.

Your proc will receive a list of the files located by the directory Parse and can modify the list then return it. Cloverleaf will only retrieve the files in your returned list.

I have a suite of procs used for controlling the DirParse list as well as file Deletion.

If you would like them as an example or to use as is email me and I will send them to you.

Jim,

Could I get a copy of these scripts?  I am trying to set the file list so that I only process the file that was created for today only.

Also have a look at this sticky thread for examples.

Simple.  Your proc would look like:

set msg_list [msgget $mh]

set out_list [lsearch -all -inline $msg_list “*.hl7”]

msgset $mh $out_list

return “{CONTINUE $mh}”

or really succinct:

msgset $mh [lsearch -all -inline [msgget $mh] “*.hl7”]

return “{CONTINUE $mh}”
