Files accepted

To import data from spreadsheets, enable "Merge CSV Files" and select the folder containing the files.

The spreadsheets must have exactly these names (not all are required, but existing ones must match):

• UnsTags
• DevicesChannels
• DevicesNodes
• DevicesPoints
• DevicesAccesstypes
• UnstagProviders

The CSV file names and formats are equivalent when exporting tables in Designer. The CSV file name can optionally start with new solution name. Ex: Solution2_UnsTags.csv

You can download all spreadsheet templates above by exporting your existing solution or creating a new one. To export the spreadsheets, open your solution and click "Export Document" on the Top Main Toolbar. This will generate a .csv file that can be imported using this Solution Creator. You can find information about the Top Main Toolbar in: Designer (IDE Overview).

Batch Execution

You have the option to don’t use the user interface to create the projects, follow how to use it:

1 - Create a .bat file with the content from step 2

2 - Content:

CD "<ProductPath>\fx-10" "<ProductPath>\fx-10\SolutionCreator.exe" /logfile:"<logPath>\outputLog.log" /outputFileLocation:"<outputPath>" /solutionName:<projectName> /newFolder:<bool> /platform:<platform> /productFamily:<productFamily> /productModel:<productModel> /MergeCsvFiles:<bool> /pathCSVFiles:"<spreadsheetsPath>" /templateName:<projectTemplate>

Example tested and working:

CD "C:\Program Files (x86)\Tatsoft\00 - v10\FrameworX\fx-10" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Tatsoft\00 - v10\FrameworX\fx-10\SolutionCreator.exe" /logfile:"C:\Users\eduar\Downloads\log1.log" /outputFileLocation:"C:\Users\eduar\Downloads" /solutionName:test1 /newFolder:true /platform:Multiplatform /productFamily:EdgeGateway /productModel:_1500_tags /MergeCsvFiles:true /pathCSVFiles:"C:\Users\eduar\Documents\03 - Tatsoft\05 - SolutionCreatorSpreadSheet\Folder1" /templateName:blank
