2.26. Configuring Smooks to Consume a UN/EDIFACT Interchange

  1. To programmatically configure Smooks to consume a UN/EDIFACT interchange (via, for instance, an UNEdifactReaderConfigurator), use the code below: 
    Smooks smooks = new Smooks();
 
smooks.setReaderConfig(new UNEdifactReaderConfigurator("urn:org.milyn.edi.unedifact:d03b-mapping:v1.4"));
  2. Insert the following on the containing application's classpath:
    • the requisite EDI mapping models
    • the Smooks EDI cartridge
  3. There may be some Maven dependancies your configuration will require. See the example below: 
    <dependency>
    <groupId>org.milyn</groupId>
    <artifactId>milyn-smooks-edi</artifactId>
    <version>1.4</version>
</dependency>
 
<!-- Required Mapping Models -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.milyn.edi.unedifact</groupId>
    <artifactId>d93a-mapping</artifactId>
    <version>v1.4</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.milyn.edi.unedifact</groupId>
    <artifactId>d03b-mapping</artifactId>
    <version>v1.4</version>
</dependency>
  4. Once an application has added an EDI mapping model ZIP set to its classpath, you can configure Smooks to use this model by simply referencing the Maven artifact using a URN as the unedifact:reader configuration's mappingModel attribute value: 
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
<smooks-resource-list xmlns="http://www.milyn.org/xsd/smooks-1.1.xsd" xmlns:unedifact="http://www.milyn.org/xsd/smooks/unedifact-1.4.xsd">
 
    <unedifact:reader mappingModel="urn:org.milyn.edi.unedifact:d03b-mapping:v1.4" ignoreNewLines="true" />
 
</smooks-resource-list>
