Configuration and Performance
=============================
The DataFile Collector (DFC) gets fileReady messages from the Message Router (MR) sent from xNFs, via the VES Collector.
These messages contains data about files ready to get from the xNF. DFC then collects these files from the xNF and
publishes them to the DataRouter (DR) on a feed. Consumers can subscribe to the feed from DR and process the file for
its specific purpose. The connection between a file type and the feed it will be published to is the
**changeIdentifier**. DFC can handle multiple **changeIdentifier**/feed combinations, see picture below.

Configuration
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
By default, DFC handles the "PM_MEAS_FILES" change identifier and publishes these files on the "bulk_pm_feed" feed.
But it can also be configured to handle more/other change identifiers and publish them to more/other feeds. The
configuration of DFC is controlled via a blueprint.

Blueprint Configuration Explained
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

For the communication with the Message Router, the user must provide the **host name**, **port**, and **protocol** of
the DMaaP Message router.

.. code-block:: yaml
  :emphasize-lines: 2,6,10

    inputs:
      dmaap_mr_host:
        type: string
        description: dmaap messagerouter host
        default: message-router.onap.svc.cluster.local
      dmaap_mr_port:
        type: integer
        description: dmaap messagerouter port
        default: 3904
      dmaap_mr_protocol:
        type: string
        description: dmaap messagerouter protocol
        default: "http"

The user can also specify which version of DFC to use.

.. code-block:: yaml
  :emphasize-lines: 2

    inputs:
      tag_version:
        type: string
        description: DFC image tag/version
        default: "nexus3.onap.org:10001/onap/org.onap.dcaegen2.collectors.datafile.datafile-app-server:1.2.0"

The user can also enable secure communication with the DMaaP Message Router.

.. code-block:: yaml
  :emphasize-lines: 2

    inputs:
      secureEnableCert:
        type: boolean
        description: enable certificate based connection with DMaap
        default: false

DFC can handle multiple change identifiers. For each change identifier/feed combination the user must provide the
**change identifier**, **feed name**, and **feed location**.

**Note!** The **feed name** provided should be used by the consumer/s to set up the subscription to the feed.

The **feed name** and **feed location** are defined as inputs for the user to provide.

.. code-block:: yaml
  :emphasize-lines: 2,6

    inputs:
      feed0_name:
        type: string
        description: The name of the feed the files will be published to. Should be used by the subscriber.
        default: "bulk_pm_feed"
      feed0_location:
        type: string
        description: The location of the feed.
        default: "loc00"

The **feed name** shall be used in the definition of the feed for the DMaaP plugin under the "**node_templates**"
section under a tag for the  internal "**feed identifier**" for the feed (feed0 in the example).

.. code-block:: yaml
  :emphasize-lines: 1,5

    feed0:
      type: ccsdk.nodes.Feed
      properties:
        feed_name:
          get_input: feed0_name
        useExisting: true

The **feed location** shall be used under the **streams_publishes** section under a tag for the internal
"**feed identifier**" for the feed.

.. code-block:: yaml
  :emphasize-lines: 2,4

      streams_publishes:
      - name: feed0
        location:
          get_input: feed0_location
        type: data_router

The **change identifier** shall be defined as an item under the **streams_publishes** tag in the "**application_config**"
section. Under this tag the internal "**feed identifier**" for the feed shall also be added to get the
info about the feed substituted in by CBS (that's what the <<>> tags are for).

.. code-block:: yaml
  :emphasize-lines: 4,5

      application_config:
        service_calls: []
        streams_publishes:
          PM_MEAS_FILES:
            dmaap_info: <<feed0>>
            type: data_router

And, lastly, to set up the publication relationship for the feed, the "**feed identifier**" must be added to the
"**relationships**" section of the blueprint.

.. code-block:: yaml
  :emphasize-lines: 3

   relationships:
    - type: ccsdk.relationships.publish_files
      target: feed0

Sample blueprint configuration

The format of the blueprint configuration that drives all behavior of DFC is probably best described using an example.
The blueprint below configures DFC to handle the two feeds shown in the picture above.
