openHandwerk-jsonata-transform-component

Dedicated openHandwerk data transformation component for elastic.io platform based on JSONata

Authentication

This component requires no authentication.

How it works

The component supports two actions - Transform to OIH and Transform from OIH. This means that the component takes the incoming message body from the previous step and creates a new expression in a JSON format. The new generated JSON object has specific properties which represent the input/output for the next/previous component in the flow. It uses a fact that JSONata expression is a superset of JSON document so that by default any valid JSON document is a valid JSONata expression.

Let's see how the action Transform from OIH works. For example let's take this sample incoming message body and transform it to a valid openHandwerk object:

{
    firstName: msg.body.data.firstName,
    lastName: msg.body.data.lastName,
    email: msg.body.data.email
}

The result of that transformation will be the following JSON document:

{
  "firstName": "John",
  "lastName": "Doe",
  "email": "email@me.com"
}

The action Transform to OIH works the same way. Let's take this incoming message body from openHandwerk component:

{
    firstName: msg.body.data.firstName,
    lastName: msg.body.data.lastName,
    email: msg.body.data.email
}

The result of that transofrmation will be the following JSON document:

{
  "firstName": "John",
  "lastName": "Doe",
  "email": "email"
}
