regarding csv format content for value mapping artifact

[TonyTong502]

Hi @engswee

This is a really good component for integration suite cicd pipeline and I have an idea for value mapping artifact,

If the value mapping artifact container a large amount of entries for example 50+, it is not easy to read & maintain in XML format so I created a python script convert_vm_zip_to_csv_from.py.txt.

to convert the value mapping from xml to csv, there are 2 benefits from my understanding, 1) easier to use diff tool to find difference, and 2) easier to inject / update environmental values for specific entry

manual import csv method is here: https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-blog-posts-by-sap/sap-cloud-integration-csv-import-in-value-mapping/ba-p/13384229

Is it possible to introduce a transform handler for value mapping artifact? post handler from xml to csv after sync or get, and before pre handler from csv to xml before upload?

Regards,
Tony

Hi Tony,

Thanks for your suggestion. It is a good idea to provide maintainability for the value mappings. The handlers could be executed through optional parameters.

Would you be interested to work on this and contribute it to the project? Personally, I'd prefer if the handlers are also written in Go so that we don't run into cross compilation issues.

Thanks for the response, currently I don't have Go skill, please allow me sometime, I will manage to gain this skill and catch up with you. :)
