File Copy Writer Parameters

Specifies the operation that will be performed on the input files.

Specifies whether to automatically replace files in the destination folder if they already exist.

If the source file location is a folder, this parameter indicates whether to only copy the contents of the source folder to the destination folder, or whether to copy the folder name in addition to the contents.

Leaving the default parameter set to No will copy only the contents of the source folder.

If the source file location is a folder, this parameter specifies whether to additionally copy any subfolders and their contents to the destination folder.

Specifies whether FME should issue an error and terminate the translation when the specified source file/folder does not exist.

When set to No and the source file/folder does not exist, FME logs a warning (WARN) to the log file and proceeds.

If the file cannot be copied for any reason:

• Yes – FME will log an error message (ERROR) to the log file and terminate the translation.
• No – FME will log a warning message (WARN) to the log file, and the translation will continue.

This parameter is only valid for users who are authoring for FME Server's streaming service, and would like to be able to create HTML files on the fly for streaming into the browser (as opposed to streaming plain text back to the browser).

By adjusting this setting, the user is communicating to and storing in the workspace information on how the text file will be streamed back if it is used in the streaming service.

The valid values for this parameter include all valid MIME types. Several common types are listed and others can be entered as text strings.
