 Architecture
 ============

 Introduction
 """"""""""""
 DataFile Collector (DFC) is a part of DCAEGEN2. Some information about DFC and the reasons of its implementation can be
 found here: `5G bulk PM wiki page`_.

 .. _5G bulk PM wiki page: https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/5G+-+Bulk+PM

 DFC will handle the collection of bulk PM data flow:
     1. Subscribes to fileReady DMaaP topic
     2. Collects the file from the xNF
     3. Sends new event to DataRouter with file.


 DFC is delivered as one **Docker container** which hosts application server and can be started by `docker-compose`.
 See `Delivery`_ for more information about the docker container.

 .. _Delivery: ./delivery.html

 Functionality
 """""""""""""
 .. image:: ../../images/DFC.png

 Interaction
 """""""""""
 DFC will interact with the DMaaP Message Router and with the Data Router via secured protocol, using json files.
 So far, the implemented protocols are sftp and ftp(e)s.

 Retry mechanism
 """""""""""""""
 DFC is designed to retry downloading and publishing of files in order to recover from temporary faults.
 Each time an event is received, DFC will try to download and and publish each previously unpublished file in the event.
 The event is received from the Message Router (MR), the files are fetched from a PNF and are published to Data Router
 (DR).
 Both fetching of a file and publishing is retried a number of times with an increasing delay between each attempt.
 After a number of attempts, the DFC will log an error message and give up. Failing of processing of one file does not
 affect the handling of others.
