This documentation page describes a feature of version 3.3 of Iguana. For information on how to configure the From Database source component in version 4.0 or later of Iguana, see From Database. | ||
 |
In order to configure the From Database source component described in the Channel Source Components section of the manual, you must specify the properties described in the table below:
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Full generator VMD path* | Absolute path to the message definition file that you have created to map data from your database table(s) to each outgoing HL7 message. For more information on how to create a VMD file that maps data from a database to an HL7 message, see the Step 1 - Setting Up the VMD File section of the Database to HL7 tutorial. |
| Poll time* | Number of milliseconds between subsequent queries to the database for the next outgoing message with "waiting" status (i.e. the message's STATUS value is 'W'). If no messages are found to be "waiting", Iguana waits for another "Poll Time" interval before querying the database again. |
| Order messages by column | No: Means that the messages are ordered in an arbitrary order (not necessarily the order they were added). Yes: Indicates that the messages are ordered in the order of the Message ID, which is usually the order the outgoing tables get populated. The messages can be ordered in ascending and descending order. |
| Automatically purge error logs older than | Specify when error logs are stale and can be deleted. If this value is 0, then error logs will never be automatically purged. |
