Metafacture Fix

Metafacture Fix (Metafix) is work in progress towards tools and an implementation of the Fix language for Metafacture as an alternative to configuring data transformations with Metamorph. Inspired by Catmandu Fix, Metafix processes metadata not as a continuous data stream but as discrete records. The basic idea is to rebuild constructs from the (Catmandu) Fix language like functions, selectors and binds in Java and combine with additional functionalities from the Metamorph toolbox.

See also Fix Interest Group for an initiative towards an implementation-independent specification for the Fix Language.

This repo contains the actual implementation of the Fix language as a Metafacture module and related components. It started as an Xtext web project with a Fix grammar, from which a parser, a web editor, and a language server are generated. The repo also contains an extension for VS code/codium based on that language server. (The web editor has effectively been replaced by the Metafacture Playground, but remains here for its integration into the language server, which we want to move over to the playground.)

Setup

Note: If you're using Windows, configure Git option core.autocrlf before cloning: git config --global core.autocrlf false.

Clone the Git repository:

git clone https://github.com/metafacture/metafacture-fix.git

Go to the Git repository root:

cd metafacture-fix/

Run the tests (in metafix/src/test/java) and checks (.editorconfig, config/checkstyle/checkstyle.xml):

./gradlew clean check

To execute a Fix (embedded in a Flux) via CLI:

./gradlew :metafix-runner:run --args="$PWD/path/to.flux"

(To import the projects in Eclipse, choose File > Import > Existing Gradle Project and select the metafacture-fix directory.)

Usage

The repo contains and uses a new Metafix stream module for Metafacture which plays the role of the Metamorph module in Fix-based Metafacture workflows. For the current implementation of the Metafix stream module see the tests in metafix/src/test/java. To play around with some examples, check out the Metafacture Playground. For real-world usage samples see openRub.fix and duepublico.fix. For reference documentation, see Functions and cookbook.

Extension

The project metafix-vsc provides an extension for Visual Studio Code / Codium for fix via the language server protocol (LSP). In the current state the extension supports auto completion, simple syntax highlighting and auto closing brackets and quotes. This project was created using this tutorial and the corresponding example.

Build extension:

[!IMPORTANT] There is a problem when building the extension on Windows and installing the extension on a Linux system afterwards. In some cases the Xtext Server won't start. So if you want to use the extension not only on Windows, build the extension on a Linux system or on a Linux Subsystem on Windows.

1. Install Visual Studio Code / alternative: VS Codium
2. Install Node.js (including npm)
3. In metafacture-fix execute: Unix: ./gradlew installServer Windows: .\gradlew.bat installServer
4. In metafix-vsc/ execute (tip: if you use windows, install cygwin to execute npm commands): npm install

To start the extension in development mode (starting a second code/codium instance), follow A. To create a vsix file to install the extension permanently follow B.

A) Run in dev mode:

1. Open metafix-vsc/ in Visual Studio Code / Codium
2. Launch vscode extension by pressing F5 (opens new window of Visual Studio Code)
3. Open new file (file-ending .fix) or open existing fix-file (see sample below)

B) Install vsix file:

1. Install vsce: npm install -g vsce
2. In metafix-vsc/ execute: vsce package vsce will create a vsix file in the vsc directory which can be used for installation:
3. Open VS Code / Codium
4. Click 'Extensions' section
5. Click menu bar and choose 'Install from VSIX...'

Web editor

Start the web server:

./gradlew jettyRun

Visit http://localhost:8080/, and paste this into the editor:

# Fix is a macro-language for data transformations

# Simple fixes

add_field("hello", "world")
remove_field("my.deep.nested.junk")
copy_field("stats", "output.$append")

# Conditionals

if exists("error")
  set_field("is_valid", "no")
  log("error")
elsif exists("warning")
  set_field("is_valid", "yes")
  log("warning")
else
  set_field("is_valid", "yes")
end

# Loops

do list(path: "foo", "var": "$i")
  add_field("$i.bar", "baz")
end

Content assist is triggered with Ctrl-Space. The input above is also used in FixParsingTest.java.

Run workflows on the web server, passing data, flux, and fix:

http://localhost:8080/xtext-service/run?data='1'{'a': '5', 'z': 10}&flux=as-lines|decode-formeta|fix|encode-formeta(style="multiline")&fix=map(a,b) map(_else)

Functions and cookbook

Best practices and guidelines for working with Metafacture Fix

• We recommend to use double quotation marks for arguments and values in functions, binds and conditionals.
• If using a list bind with a variable, the var option requires quotation marks (do list(path: "<sourceField>", "var": "<variableName>")).
• Fix turns repeated fields into arrays internally but only marked arrays (with [] at the end of the field name) are also emitted as "arrays" (entities with indexed literals), all other arrays are emitted as repeated fields.
• Every Fix file should end with a final newline.

Glossary

Array wildcards

Array wildcards resemble Catmandu's concept of wildcards.

When working with arrays and repeated fields you can use wildcards instead of an index number to select elements of an array.

Wildcard	Meaning
*	Selects all elements of an array.
$first	Selects only the first element of an array.
$last	Selects only the last element of an array.
$prepend	Selects the position before the first element of an array. Can only be used when adding new elements to an array.
$append	Selects the position after the last element of an array. Can only be used when adding new elements to an array.

Path wildcards

Path wildcards resemble Metamorph's concept of wildcards. They are not supported in Catmandu (it has specialized Fix functions instead).

You can use path wildcards to select fields matching a pattern. They only match path segments (field names), though, not whole paths of nested fields. These wildcards cannot be used to add new elements.

Wildcard	Meaning
*	Placeholder for zero or more characters.
?	Placeholder for exactly one character.
\|	Alternation of multiple patterns.
[...]	Enumeration of characters.

Functions

Selectors

reject

Ignores records that match a condition.

if <condition>
  reject()
end

Example in Playground

Java Code

Binds

do list

Iterates over each element of an array. In contrast to Catmandu, it can also iterate over a single object or string.

Java Code

do list(path: "<sourceField>")
  ...
end

Example in Playground

Only the current element is accessible in this case (as the root element).

When specifying a variable name for the current element, the record remains accessible as the root element and the current element is accessible through the variable name:

do list(path: "<sourceField>", "var": "<variableName>")
  ...
end

Example in Playground

do list_as

Iterates over each named element of an array (like do list with a variable name). If multiple arrays are given, iterates over the corresponding elements from each array (i.e., all elements with the same array index, skipping elements whose arrays have already been exhausted).

Example in Playground

Java Code

do list_as(element_1: "<sourceField_1>"[, ...])
  ...
end

E.g.:

# "ccm:university":["https://ror.org/0304hq317"]
# "ccm:university_DISPLAYNAME":["Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Universität Hannover"]
set_array("sourceOrga[]")
do list_as(orgId: "ccm:university[]", orgName: "ccm:university_DISPLAYNAME[]")
  copy_field(orgId, "sourceOrga[].$append.id")
  copy_field(orgName, "sourceOrga[].$last.name")
end
# {"sourceOrga":[{"id":"https://ror.org/0304hq317","name":"Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Universität Hannover"}]}

do once

Executes the statements only once (when the bind is first encountered), not repeatedly for each record.

do once()
  ...
end

Example in Playground

Java Code

In order to execute multiple blocks only once, tag them with unique identifiers:

do once("maps setup")
  ...
end
do once("vars setup")
  ...
end

do put_macro

Defines a named macro, i.e. a list of statements that can be executed later with the call_macro function.

Variables can be referenced with $[<variableName>], in the following order of precedence:

1. "dynamic" local variables, passed as options to the call_macro function;
2. "static" local variables, passed as options to the do put_macro bind;
3. global variables, defined via put_var/put_vars.

Parameters:

• name (required): Unique name of the macro.

Options:

• All options are made available as "static" local variables in the macro.

do put_macro("<macroName>"[, <staticLocalVariables>...])
  ...
end
call_macro("<macroName>"[, <dynamicLocalVariables>...])

Example in Playground

Java Code

Conditionals

Conditionals start with if in case of affirming the condition or unless rejecting the condition.

Conditionals require a final end.

Additional conditionals can be set with elsif and else.

  ...
end

unless <condition(params, ...)>
  ...
end

if <condition(params, ...)>
  ...
elsif
  ...
