File component

1. File Component In Mule Demo

2. Abstract
• The main motto of this PPT is how to use File
component in our applications.

3. Introduction
• The File connector allows your Mule
application to exchange files with a file
system. You can implement the File connector
as an inbound endpoint (such as, a message
source), or as an outbound endpoint. This
endpoint implements a one-way exchange
pattern only.

4. Example

5. • .mflow
• <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
• <mule xmlns:file="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/file"
xmlns="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/core"

• <flow name="FileFlow1" doc:name="FileFlow1">

responseTimeout="10000" doc:name="File"/>
• <logger message="--file is successfully picked" level="INFO" doc:name="Logger"/>
• </flow>
• </mule>

6. • Output:

7. • Flow of execution:
1. Service will pole the file for every 1sec”
2. It will pick the file from source folder and will
move to destination location
3. Service will display a message called “file is
successfully picked”
