Pipeline Configuration Help

The pipelines configuration page shows the pipelines that are defined for this database. A Pipeline specifies the series of operations to perform on documents in particular states.

For each pipeline, the Configuration page shows the following:

• pipeline description lists the description (if available in the pipeline).
• Any on success or on failure actions configured in the pipeline.
• All of the states defined in the pipeline and their corresponding actions.
• A button to delete the pipeline from the triggers database.

To load new pipelines into the database:

• Click the Load tab.
• Enter the directory where your pipeline XML file is stored. If the directory is on the filesystem, it must be accessible and readable from the machine in which the Admin interface is running. If the directory is in a database, the user in which you are logged into the Admin interface must have the necessary permissions to read the document.
• Enter a wildcard filter to search on, or the filename of the XML document. For example, entering *.xml will look for all pipeline files in the directory with filenames ending with .xml.
• Select the source from which to load the pipeline. You can either load a pipeline XML file from the filesystem or load an XML document from a database.
• Click OK.
• On the Pipeline Load confirmation page, examine the name of the pipeline(s) displayed. Only XML documents that are in the http://marklogic.com/cpf/pipelines namespace are displayed. If the pipeline displayed is correct, click OK to load the pipeline into the database.

To completely remove a pipeline from the database:

• Select the pipeline you want to delete from the left tree menu.
• Click the Delete button.
• It is not necessary to delete a pipeline to detach it from a domain. Instead, use the Domains -> domain_name -> Pipelines -> Detach button to disable the pipeline for the given domain.

Buttons and Tabs:

• The Summary tab displays all of the pipelines configured in this database, and includes their transitions and a list of domains to which each pipeline is attached.
• Use the Load tab to load new pipelines into the triggers database for this database.
• Use the delete button on the configuration page to delete the pipeline from the triggers database.
