- class FMEUniversalWriter
FME Universal Writer Class
init(writerName, cacheFeatures, directives)
Create a FME writer to write data to a format or system. Only the writer’s type mneumonic, as found in the FME Reference Manual Part II, need be passed in. Any parameters needed for the writer will be passed to it via its ‘open’ call.
- Parameters:
writerName (str) – Writer’s type mneumonic
directives (dict or list[str]) – Specify one or more additional directives to the writer. All elements in this collection must be
str
. A list should be used if one key is to be set to multiple values. If a list is passed in, key-value pairs such as those in a dict must be placed side by side. For example, the key should be placed in the first list element, followed by the value for the key. All the directives applicable to the reader are allowed for the writer. However, the writer will ignore the IDLIST directive. It also interprets the user pipeline directive in a slightly different way – for the writer, features are sent through the user pipeline BEFORE being sent to the output writer.
