Non-Dataflow Workers
A non-dataflow (a.k.a. control flow) worker has no input or output ports.
Also see the dataflow workers:
Note
There is no fundamental difference between dataflow and non-dataflow workers; they can be mixed and matched as needed.
ActionWorker
Run an Action or Func callback, optionally creating child workers.
- Worker: ActionWorker
- Examples:
ActionWorkerBase
Run an Action or Func callback, optionally creating child workers. Must be inherited.
- Worker: ActionWorkerBase<TDerived>
- Example: Custom Workers
AdbExecuteNonQueryWorker
Execute a query on an SQL database (e.g. INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE and DML statements) without
returning any result set. RecordsAffected is returned.
- Worker: AdbExecuteNonQueryWorker
- Examples:
AdbExecuteScalarWorker
Execute a query on an SQL database and return a single result value.
- Worker: AdbExecuteScalarWorker<TResult>
- Examples for the similar
AdbExecuteNonQueryWorker:
AdbTableNonQueryWorker
Generate and execute a provider-specific query on a table-like object in an
SQL database:
DELETE all rows (with RecordsAffected), IF EXISTS, DROP, or TRUNCATE.
- Worker: AdbTableNonQueryWorker
- Examples:
AdbTransactionActionWorker
Creates an AdbKeepOpenConnection and a local AdbTransaction, runs a user supplied callback inside the transaction, and commits/rolls back and disposes the transaction and connection. The callback typically creates Adb child database workers that automatically participates in the transaction, which will be rolled back if any of these child workers (or the callback) fails.
- Worker: AdbTransactionActionWorker
- Example: Adb Keep Open Connection
CopyFileWorker
Copy a file.
- Worker: CopyFileWorker
- Examples:
CreateFileWorker
Create a file.
- Worker: CreateFileWorker
- Examples for the similar
CopyFileWorker:
DeleteFileWorker
Delete a file.
- Worker: DeleteFileWorker
- Examples for the similar
CopyFileWorker:
ExecuteProcessWorker
Launch an external process, e.g. an executable, a batch script, or a document.
- Worker: ExecuteProcessWorker
- Examples:
FileExistsWorker
Check if a file exists.
- Worker: FileExistsWorker
- Examples:
ForEachActionWorker
Execute an Action or Func callback once (optionally creating child workers) for each item
in an enumerable.
- Worker: ForEachActionWorker<TItem>
- Example for the similar
WhileActionWorker: Worker Error Handling
MoveFileWorker
Move a file.
- Worker: MoveFileWorker
- Example: actionETL Overview
UsingActionWorker
Mimics the using statement in C#/VB to create an arbitrary disposable object,
run a callback with the disposable object, and automatically dispose the object.
- Worker: UsingActionWorker<TDisposable>
- Examples:
WhileActionWorker
Execute an Action or Func callback (optionally creating child workers) for each
iteration in a while-loop.
- Worker: WhileActionWorker<T>
- Example: Worker Error Handling
Worker
Bare-bones worker with only the intrinsic functionality inherited from WorkerBase<TDerived> and WorkerBase, such as start constraints and grouping children.
- Worker: Worker
WorkerBase and WorkerBase<TDerived>
WorkerBase is a base class that all other workers inherit from indirectly, via
WorkerBase<TDerived>.
Specify WorkerBase when referring to workers without knowing the final derived
worker type. It has many useful members, such as the worker Name, Parent, etc.
WorkerBase<TDerived> is a base class that all other workers inherit from directly
or indirectly. It contains members that use the type of the final derived worker
(TDerived).
