Implement a connector with utility functions #1989

Open Asitha opened 3 years ago

Asitha commented 3 years ago

Description:

There are some utility functions that are mostly used within Synapse that require a lot of manual effort. With this connector, we need to address the following identified utility functions

[ ] String operations
- [ ] split
- [ ] merge
- [ ] to lowercase
- [ ] to uppercase
- [ ] regex matching
- [ ] length
- [ ] get hash value
[ ] Email validation
[ ] pgp
- [ ] encrypt and sign
- [ ] decrypt
- [ ] sign
- [ ] validate
[ ] Generate UUID
[ ] Date Time Operations (Similar to Java API)

Affected Products:

Micro Integrator
Integration Studio

Maybe we need to split these functionalities into multiple connectors. Let's discuss...

I would like to see Strings operations out of the box in the product. Generate a UUID is another useful thing.

Have we started any work on this?

Asitha commented 3 years ago

@abeykoon idea is to have these connectors pre-installed in integration studio, including CSV connector. Added UUID functionality to the list.

@tishan89 Not yet.

tishan89 commented 3 years ago

We will need time based ones as well. i think we need to provide this as functions. Ex: <property value="fn:toLowercase($ctx:another_property)" name="new_property" scope="default" type="STRING"/>
