Codecs

Turn files into records and records into files. The CSV decoder and encoder handle delimited text; the ASN.1 decoder and encoder handle binary BER files such as telecom call detail records, with flow types generated from the ASN.1 module.

Read file → CSV decoder → Table writer
Sql query → CSV encoder → Write file

Encoders write the records of one batch, such as one query result, into one file.

Plugins

Plugin	What it does	Pins
ASN.1 decoder	Decodes a binary ASN.1 stream (for example telecom CDR files) into typed records. Flow types are generated from an ASN.1 module definition; every top-level record found in the stream is emitted on Output.	Input, Output, Header, Continue
ASN.1 encoder	Encodes typed records into an ASN.1 BER file (for example telecom CDR files). Flow types are generated from an ASN.1 module definition, the same way the ASN.1 decoder does it; every record received on Input is encoded and appended to the current file, which is emitted on Output.	Input, Output
CSV decoder	Splits CSV text into records: every line becomes one record of a flow type generated from the configured header names, all properties being strings. Input is a text record or a file stream.	Input, Output, Continue
CSV encoder	Encodes records into CSV: one line per record, one column per configured property. The records of a batch (e.g. one Sql query execution, one file read) go into one CSV file, emitted as an in-memory file stream when the batch completes, ready for a file or blob writer.	Input, Output
