Pentaho Data Integrator DOC Plugins

This project allows you to manage documents in Pentaho's Data Integration.

Works with PDI 6.1,7.1 and 8.2.

Building the plugins

Check out the project if you have not already done so :

    git clone git://github.com/atolcd/pentaho-doc-plugins.git
    cd pentaho-doc-plugins

Install Java 8+, Maven and PDI.

To package the plugins, run the following commands from the base project directory :

    # Create the package
    mvn clean package

The built package is target/pentaho-gis-plugins-1.0.0-bin.zip (version can differ)

Integration with Eclipse

If you want to use the Eclipse IDE, you can easily create projects with maven. From the root directory of the project :

    mvn eclipse:eclipse

Assume that the M2Eclipse plugin is installed and import the project from Eclipse :

  1. From the "Import" item of the "File" menu, select "Existing Projects into Workspace"
  2. Next, select the root directory of the project
  3. Eclipse suggests 1 projects : select it and Finish
  4. You can start working

It has been tested with Eclipse Luna and Mars.

Installing/upgrading the module

Method 1 : Pentaho's Marketplace installation

In PDI, open the Marketplace from the help menu. Select "PDI DOC Plugins" and click "Install this plugin". After the installation, you need to restart PDI.

When a newer version will be available, you will see an "Upgrade to XXX" button at the right of "Uninstall this plugin" button. Don't use it. Proceed in two steps : first use "Uninstall this plugin" then start a fresh installation.

Method 2 : Manual installation

Extract the content of pentaho-doc-plugins-VERSION-bin.zip in ${PENTAHO_HOME}/plugins. Example of extraction from the root directory of the project :

    wget https://github.com/atolcd/pentaho-doc-plugins/releases/download/v1.0.0/pentaho-doc-plugins-1.0.0-bin.zip
    unzip pentaho-doc-plugins-1.0.0-bin.zip -d ${PENTAHO_HOME}/plugins

To upgrade the plugin, delete files you added before and start a fresh installation.

Using the plugins

You will find new elements in "Document management"'s directory :

  • Metadata writer
  • PDF Merge
  • Text report
  • PDF Conversion

Find how to use them in the examples in the samples folder.
