Artifact Item

An Artifact represents a single file produced by a Rule or Transformer.

For example, if a rule produces three files, it needs to contain three Artifact items.

Artifact Properties

PropertyTypeDefaultDescription
alwaysUpdatedbooltrueSetting this to false means the file is not necessarily always written to by any command run by the rule. The timestamps of such artifacts are therefore not checked to find out whether they are up to date. Consequently, if all artifacts of a rule have this property set to false, the commands of the rule are always executed.
filePathstringundefinedThe file path of the target artifact.
fileTagslistempty listThe tags to attach to the target file. These can then be matched by a rule.
