Splash Flat Connector
=====================

[](#splash-flat-connector)

Base Connector for parsing flat files from remote locations:

What's done for ?
=================

[](#whats-done-for-)

This connector may be used to connect flat data sources as Splash Objects.

A flat source could be one or multiple csv|xml files, located on a remote server, that have to be connected and used bay Splash Sync as generic objects.

How it works
============

[](#how-it-works)

Reading data from source always follow the same process:

1. **The File Reader** read raw file from a predefined location.
2. **The File Parser** convert file contents into an associative array of objects raw data.
3. **The Formater** (Optional) decode, treat and convert objects raw data
4. **The Hydrator** convert objects raw data into Object Models

Once list of all objects is collected, Flat connector uses models data to read, compare & export data to Splash Sync server.

For a better performance, parsed objects list is stored on cache.

The Adapter
===========

[](#the-adapter)

The Adapter only used to read file contents from a given location

- Local files via full path
- Remote files via url
- FTP / SFTP files via a connection string

The Parser
==========

[](#the-parser)

- **The Adapter** read static file & parse it onto an array of objects data
- **The Adapter** read static file & parse it onto an array of objects data
- **The Formater** (Optional) Decode, convert, parse objects data
