Overview

The service manages file path translation across systems. Command and event parameters are encoded as zero terminated JSON strings.

The service uses standard format for error reports, see Error Report Format.

Commands

Get


C • <token> • PathMap • get •

The command retrieves file path mapping rules.

Reply:


R • <token><error report><array of path map rules><array of path map rules>
    ⇒ null
    ⇒ [ <path map rules list> ]

<path map rules list><object: path map rule><path map rules list> , <object: path map rule>

Predefined path map rule properties are:

Set


C • <token> • PathMap • set • [ <path map rules list> ] •

<path map rules list><object: path map rule><path map rules list> , <object: path map rule>

The command set file path mapping rules.

Reply:


R • <token><error report>

Events

PathMap service broadcasts notification events when path mappings are changed.


E • PathMap • changed •
