Read external file and import data

[harikumar_marya]

Hi,

Could you please help me to understand options to read text file from one of configured network drive location and import data into CRX ?

Thanks,

Hari

Hi,

Here are examples for uploading files: http://www.wemblog.com/2011/10/how-to-read-external-file-in-cq.html

The Filesystem Resource Provider can access your file system and then you can watch this folder and upload files and process them when they copied in.

Or you could write a script that watches your file system folder, then when a new file is copied, it uploads the file to the server via a servlet.

Hi,

You can use the FileReader API in Java to read the file and store to crx using JCR API
