Smooks-Is it possible to add dynamic date to the file name under file:fileNamePattern element?

Is it possible to add dynamic date to the file name under file:fileNamePattern element?

 <file:outputStream openOnElement="orders Order" resourceName="orderItemSplitStream">
        <file:fileNamePattern>order${order.orderId}.xml</file:fileNamePattern>
        <file:destinationDirectoryPattern>C:\\Users\\rocky\\workspace\\transformCSV2XMLFile\\</file:destinationDirectoryPattern>
        <file:listFileNamePattern>order.lst</file:listFileNamePattern>
 
        <file:highWaterMark mark="3"/>
    </file:outputStream>

Hi,

you could create a new Date instance in your smooks configuration and then referens it in the fileNamePattern element.

For example:

<smooks-resource-list>
 
    <jb:bean beanId="myDate" createOnElement="order-item"/>
 
    ...
    <file:outputStream resourceName="orderItemSplitStream" openOnElement="order-item">
        <file:fileNamePattern>order-${order.orderItem.itemId}-${myDate?date}.xml</file:fileNamePattern>
    ...

</smooks-resource-list>
 

The format that Freemarker uses, above specified as '?date', can be configured. You can find more information about the formatting here
