Transform Message Component XML Reference
Instead of using the Studio UI to include DataWeave language in your Mule projects, you can also create and configure a 'Transform Message' component entirely through XML, either from the XML tab in Studio or from an external editor.
Note that if you use the UI to create and configure the element, the corresponding XML configuration is created automatically in the XML editor.
Namespace and Schema Location
At the very start of your Mule Project, you must include the following dependencies:
Note that Studio automatically adds these dependencies when you drag and drop the Transform component to your canvas.
<ee:transform/>
The <ee:transform>
element is the top-level XML tag for the Transform component.
<ee:transform> Attributes |
Description |
---|---|
|
Defines the name of the element as it appears in the Studio canvas. |
|
Refers to Deferred Execution. Accepted values: |
Adding DataWeave Scripts to the Transform Component
You can either type your DataWeave code into your XML using CDATA
within a Transformations element, or you can reference an external .dwl
file.
This example that writes a DataWeave script inline within a <dw:set-payload>
transformation element:
<ee:transform doc:id="747f74d4-cb66-4f8e-8222-24784e6863ae"
doc:name="Transform" doc:timestamp="1510861248434">
<ee:message>
<ee:set-payload>
<![CDATA[%dw 2.0
output application/json
---
{
// YOUR DW SCRIPT
}
]]>
</ee:set-payload>
</ee:message>
</ee:transform>
Here is same example, calling an external .dwl
file:
<ee:transform doc:id="747f74d4-cb66-4f8e-8222-24784e6863ae"
doc:name="Transform" doc:timestamp="1510861248434" doc:mode="immediate">
<ee:message>
<ee:set-payload resource="transform.dwl" />
</ee:message>
</ee:transform>
The default location for these files is in the src/main/resources
folder in your project.
Transformations
A single Transform component element (<ee:transform/>
) can specify content for all parts of the Mule Event:
-
<ee:message/>
can contain<ee:set-payload/>
and<ee:set-attributes/>
. -
<ee:variables/>
can contain one or more<ee:set-variable/>
elements.
<ee:transform doc:id="747f74d4-cb66-4f8e-8222-24784e6863ae"
doc:name="Transform" doc:timestamp="1510861248434">
<ee:message>
<ee:set-payload resource="transform.dwl" />
<ee:set-attributes resource="myattributes.dwl" />
</ee:message>
<ee:variables>
<ee:set-variable variableName="myVar" resource="myvar.dwl"/>
</ee:variables>
</ee:transform>
The child elements contain some of the same attributes.
Attributes | Description |
---|---|
|
Points to a |
|
For output variables only, defines the name of the variable. |
Full XML Sample
Here is an example that creates transformations for the payload, an attribute, and a variable.
<ee:transform doc:id="747f74d4-cb66-4f8e-8222-24784e6863ae"
doc:name="Transform" doc:timestamp="1510861248434">
<ee:message>
<ee:set-payload><![CDATA[%dw 2.0
output application/json
---
(payload map (value0, index0) -> {
id: value0.id,
username: value0.username,
address: {
street: value0.address.street
},
website: value0.website
})]]></ee:set-payload>
<ee:set-attributes><![CDATA[%dw 2.0
output application/json
---
{
reasonPhrase: attributes.reasonPhrase
}]]></ee:set-attributes>
</ee:message>
<ee:variables>
<ee:set-variable variableName="myVar"><![CDATA[%dw 2.0
output application/json
---
{
a: payload[0].phone
}]]></ee:set-variable>
</ee:variables>
</ee:transform>
