\title Transformer Item
\brief Creates files, typically from other files.
A \e transformer takes zero or more inputs and produces one or more output artifacts
from them. The following transformer creates one output file from one input file:
\code
Transformer {
inputs: "raw_input.txt"
Artifact {
fileName: "processed_input.txt"
fileTags: "processed_file"
}
prepare: {
var cmd = new JavaScriptCommand();
cmd.description = "Processing '" + input.filePath + "'";
cmd.highlight = "codegen";
cmd.sourceCode = function() {
var file = new TextFile(input.filePath);
var content = file.readAll();
file.close()
content = content.replace(/\r\n/g, "\n");
file = new TextFile(output.filePath, TextFile.WriteOnly);
file.truncate();
file.write(content);
file.close();
}
return cmd;
}
}
\endcode
This example exhibits some interesting features of transformers:
\list
\li If there is only one input file, the property \c input is available as syntactic sugar
for \c inputs[0].
\li The filenames of the output artifacts are available as \c outputs. If there is only one
of these, it can be referred to it as \c output.
\endlist
A \c Transformer is always attached to a \c Product, possibly indirectly via a \c Module.
