Documents library

Documents library

The documents section in the Library of InterformNG2 contains the input documents (xml files and loaded spooled files), that can be used in the designer.

Two input file types are covered in the sections below:

  1. Load an xml (or other input) file in the documents library
  2. Load a spooled file in the documents library

The document folder of the library is only meant for input files with the extensions .xml and .splf. If you manage to save files with other file extensions in this folder (or subfolders to this), then these files are not shown in InterformNG2. If you want to upload other files than .xml and .splf to InterformNG2, then you should first consider if the file falls into the category of other resources (and use that) and if not, you should consider to upload the file into the others library instead.

 

Also please notice that some files in the document library may be hidden if you are running InterformNG2 with a license, which does not cover the specific input file type. If you e.g. only have a license code, which includes the xml file type and not .splf, then all files with extension .splf in the document library are not shown.

Load a file in the documents library :

You need to select the Library tab in the top of the InterformNG2 interface, in order to load a file into the documents library:


Now you click the Documents icon:


Now you can click into the sub-folder you want, if you want to load the file into a specific sub-folder. In this example I choose to load the file into the Demo folder:

 


You click the Upload icon on the left, after you have selected the folder, that you want to load the file into. Now you are asked for what file(s) to upload. Simply select them and click Open:


After uploading you should see this:


If the file(s) already exist in the Library folder, then you will see this:



The files listed have not been loaded, but you can force an overwrite of the existing resource, if you click the black arrow on the right. If you do, then you get a new pop up window to confirm, that the file(s) really was uploaded like shown on the previous image.

If multiple resources already exists, then you can consider to click the option, Overwrite all existing resources. If you do so, then the upload icon on the bottom right is enabled. If you then click Upload all the remaining resources will be uploaded to the library and they will all overwrite the existing resource with the same name:
