NAME

    Datahub::Factory - A conveyor belt which transports data from a data
    source to a data sink.

SYNOPSIS

    dhconveyor \[ARGUMENTS\] \[OPTIONS\]

DESCRIPTION

    Datahub::Factory is a command line conveyor belt which automates three
    tasks:

    Data is fetched automatically from a local or remote data source.

    Data is converted to an exchange format.

    The output is pushed to a data sink.

    Datahub::Factory fetches data from several sources as specified by the
    _Importer_ settings, executes a Catmandu::Fix and sends it to a data
    sink, set by _Exporter_. Several importer and exporter modules are
    supported.

    Datahub::Factory contains Log4perl support to monitor conveyor belt
    operations.

    Note: This toolset is not a generic tool. It has been tailored towards
    the functional requirements of the Flemish Art Collection use case.

CONFIGURATION

 Command line options

    All commands share the following switches:

    --log_level

      Set the log_level. Takes a numeric parameter. Supported levels are: 1
      (WARN), 2 (INFO), 3 (DEBUG). WARN (1) is the default.

    --log_output

      Selects an output for the log messages. By default, it will send them
      to STDERR (pass STDERR as parameter), but STDOUT (STDOUT) and a log
      file (logs/import_-date-.log) (STATISTICS) are also supported.

    --verbose

      Set verbosity. Invoking the command with the --verbose, -v flag will
      render verbose output to the terminal.

COMMANDS

 help COMMAND

    Documentation about command line options.

    It is possible to provide either all importer and/or exporter options
    on the command line, or to create a _pipeline configuration file_ that
    sets those options.

 transport [OPTIONS]
 <https://metacpan.org/pod/Datahub::Factory::Command::transport>

    Fetch data from a local or remote source, convert it to an exchange
    format and export the data.

PLUGINS

    _Datahub::Factory_ uses a plugin-based architecture, making it easy to
    extend with new functionality.

    New commands can be added by creating a Perl module that contains a
    `command_name.pm` file in the `lib/Datahub/Factory/Command` path.
    _Datahub::Factory_ uses the Datahub::Factory::Command namespace and
    App::Cmd internally.

    New Datahub::Factory::Importer, Datahub::Factory::Exporter and
    Datahub::Factory::Fixer plugins can be added in the same way, in the
    lib/Datahub/Factory/Importer, lib/Datahub/Factory/Exporter or
    lib/Datahub/Factory/Fixer path. All plugins use the
    Datahub::Factory::Importer Datahub::Factoryy::Exporter or
    Datahub::Factory::Fixer namespace and the namespace package as a
    Moose::Role.
