Question: Interoperability with e.g. File Handling nodes in KNIME #156

Closed timosachsenberg closed 7 years ago

timosachsenberg commented 7 years ago

it would be nice to directly use e.g., the KNIME Zip Files node. use cases might be compressing the output folder or writing a single zip file instead of a list of files. I think this is doable using flow variables but maybe there is a more elegant solution?

jpfeuffer commented 7 years ago

I think you would just need to do ... -> Port to URI -> Zip Files

jpfeuffer commented 7 years ago

Should work with single files and File Lists from Merger or Zip Loops

jpfeuffer commented 7 years ago

Can you confirm? Do you still think an extra node is necessary?

timosachsenberg commented 7 years ago

no I think it is fine. We could think about adding a simple example to the tutorial (maybe metanode part?) as it is a pretty common use case
