Component Flow Editor Guide
The heart of a ChainBuilder ESB configuration is performed in the Component Flow Editor. This guide describes the various options and settings, and provides introductory how-to help for a user starting to use the IDE.
IDE Guide
The ChainBuilder ESB IDE provides the ability to configure ChainBuilder ESB projects in an intuitive graphical environment. The IDE is based on Eclipse, and includes the ability to configure three different types of projects: ESB, Service Assembly (SA), and Custom Component. This document focuses on configuration done within an ESB or SA project. The third project type is discussed in the Custom Component Guide listed below.
Custom Component Guide
Use ChainBuilder ESB to create custom Binding Components and Service Engines. Learn how to use the project wizard to build the framework for a new component. The wizard gathers information about the components setup and generates a new Java project. Most of the "plumbing" for the component is generated, leaving the developer to concentrate on the core logic. The project also creates a configuration jar file allowing the new component to be manipulated in the Component Flow Editor.
Certificate Manager Guide
ChainBuilder ESB’s Certificate Manager allows the user to configure security certificates for use in connections such as HTTPS. Learn how to use the wizard to perform the necessary configurations.
Map Editor Guide
Data transformation in ChainBuilder ESB is configured through the Map Editor. The Map Editor performs mappings of data between a variety of different data formats, and includes advanced logic capabilities, such as conditional and looping structures.
Message Format Editor Guide
ChainBuilder ESB’s Message Format Editor allows for the creation and modification of fixed, delimited, and hierarchical message formats. This document provides an easy reference to the construction of these various message formats.
X12 and HL7 Editor Guide
ChainBuilder ESB comes pre-loaded with many standard X12 and HL7 formats. The X12 Editor and the HL7 Editor allow for the modification of existing message formats or the creation of new formats. This guide demonstrates the creation of an X12 and HL7 variant (modification to an existing format).
ETL User Guide
ETL is an acronym for Extract, Transform and Load, such that there is data extraction and/or loading to a relational database. The ChainBuilder ESB ETL Component allows the user to define connections to a particular database and generate an XML schema that can be used to extract data from a database or to load data into a database.
Admin Console Guide
This web interface provides remote access to perform management tasks, like install components, deploy applications and view server runtime log files, to monitor and control run-time JBI components and other ChainBuilder ESB server modules.
Reference Guidef
The reference guide includes a top-to-bottom discussion of ChainBuilder ESB Installation (Windows and Linux), Configuration, Command Line Interface, the service layer (CCSL), Transformation, Binding Components, and Service Engines material.
Use Case Files
ChainBuilder ESB Use Cases provide the user with step-by-step instructions to perform some common tasks within the IDE. These examples consist of instructions and any needed sample files. It is suggested for the user to read the Getting Started Guide prior to attempting one of the Use Cases.
