Publish in Azure

To Publish in Azure:

  1. Specify the default Azure publishing configuration in dynamic/pyrules/custom/env.py as a get_default_azure_def() function. For example:

    Azure Connection Configuration

    Code Block
    languagepy
    def get_default_azure_def():
        return """{"account":"eagleaccount","key":"BASE64ENCODEDAPPKEY=="}"""
    
    
  2. Add a get_default_azure_container_name() function to dynamic/pyrules/custom/env.py to define the default container name.

    Default Azure Container Name Definition

    Code Block
    languagepy
    def get_default_azure_container_name():
        return 'eagleml'
    
    
  3. Optional.  Add a get_default_azure_target_dir() function to dynamic/pyrules/custom/env.py to define the target virtual directory in the container. The directory should be without trailing and leading back slashes:

    Default Azure Container virtual directory Path Definition

    Code Block
    languagepy
    def get_default_azure_target_dir():
        return 'dropdir/eagleml'
    
    
  4. Optional.  Add get_azure_timeout() function to dynamic/pyrules/custom/env.py.to define timeout for publishing to Azure.The timeout parameter is expressed in seconds.
    Timeout Definition

    Code Block
    languagepy
    def get_azure_timeout():
        return 600

    In order for the result of the extract to be delivered, define to Azure the following parameter in the RTR:

    Task Parameter - Azure Delivery

    Code Block
    languagexml
    <taskParameter>
        <name>TargetSinkType</name>
        <value>azureblob</value>
    </taskParameter>

Azure Oauth Authentication

Specify the default Azure publishing configuration in dynamic/pyrules/custom/env.py as a get_default_azure_def() function. For example:

Azure Connection Configuration
Code Block
languagepy
def get_default_azure_def():
    return """{"account":"eagleaccount","application_id":"application-id","application_secret":"BASE64ENCODEDAPPSECRET==","tenant_id":"tenant-id"}"""

Distribution to multiple accounts/containers

You can distribute to multiple accounts/containers.
To distribute to multiple accounts/containers:

  1. To distribute to multiple accounts, the configuration string should be an array.In the example below the target_dir is optional.

    Configuration Example - Push To Multiple Containers

    Code Block
    languagejs
    [
        {"account":"eagleaccount1","application_id":"application-id1","application_secret":"BASE64ENCODEDAPPSECRET==","tenant_id":"tenant-id", "container_name": "container1", "target_dir": "mydropbox"},
        {"account":"eagleaccount2","application_id":"application-id2","application_secret":"BASE64ENCODEDAPPSECRET==","tenant_id":"tenant-id", "container_name": "container2", "target_dir": "mydropbox"}
    ]
  2. If the extract has to be distributed to more than one container within same account, you can specify an array of containers.

    Configuration Example - Push To Several Containers, Same Account

    Code Block
    languagejs
    [
        {"account":"eagleaccount1","application_id":"application-id1","application_secret":"BASE64ENCODEDAPPSECRET==","tenant_id":"tenant-id", 
                 "containers" : [
                       {"container_name": "container1", "target_dir": "mydropbox1"},
                       {"container_name": "container2", "target_dir": "mydropbox2"},
                 ]
         }
    ]
