Adding a module

To add a module, press add module.... You will have the choice of several "methods" for accessing modules:

• I/O modules, this method provides access to a set of basic input/output modules:
  • file-output: directs pipe contents to a file.
  • file-input: writes file contents to a pipe.
  • screen-output: shows pipe contents on screen.
  • text-input: writes a text string to a pipe.
  • copy: simply directs pipe contents to another pipe.
• XML modules, this method currently provides access to one module:
  • xslt: converts an XML file using an XSL stylesheet.
• Remote module via HTTP, prompts for a URL of a module.
• JAR module, needs a JAR file which defines a module.
• Shell command, prompts for a shell command to be encapsulated in a module.
• Pipeline-as-a-module, turns a pipeline into a module, so that it can be used inside another module.

Removing a module

Pressing remove will remove the module from the list of modules so that it will no longer be available for use in pipelines. If a module is currently removed, it cannot be removed and the remove button is disabled.

Configuring a module

Some modules need further configuration. This configuration applies globally in the pipeline setup.
