== Basics ==
A Document Proxy object contains the logic of a basic [[Proxy]] object combined with the capability to handle file documents from an interface.
One Document Proxy object can handle both import and export of the same Ubik FileDocument instance via one interface.
{{Hint|A Document Proxy object '''MUST HAVE''' Proxies are instances of PX_DOCUMENT or a derivative of it defined as its [[MetaClass]]!}}The TargetType for DocumentMetaProxy has to should be a FileDocument MetaClass. [[Category:Document|DocumentProxy]][[Category:Interfacing|DocumentProxy]] == DocumentMetaProxy Setup ==UBIK provides a DocumentMetaProxy called '''PX_DOCUMENT''' (UID: 58c1a444-3867-41e7-84a2-bd655fb04755) that is derived from PROXYROOT.The TargetType of DocumentMetaProxies needs to be set to a FileDocumentMetaClass (e.g. a MetaClass derived from FILEDOCUMENT).The following methods need to be overridden for the InterfaceAdministration MetaClasses that are related to DocumentMetaProxies via their SYSREL_INTERFACE_ADMIN_METAPROXY relation:* GetExternalDataReader()<source lang="csharp">protected override UBIK.Interface.IInterfaceExecutor GetExternalDataReader(){ return new UBIK.Interface.FileDocumentReadFromExternalExecutor(this.Environment);}</source> * GetExternalDataWriter()<source lang="csharp">protected override UBIK.Interface.IInterfaceExecutor GetExternalDataWriter(){ return new UBIK.Interface.FileDocumentWriteToExternalExecutor(this.Environment);}</source> [[Category:Document|DocumentProxy]][[Category:Interfacing|DocumentProxy]]
== Properties ==
Besides the properties known from the basic [[Proxy]], a DocumentProxy provides the following properties:
ProxyMetaProperties:
{| class="wikitable" | width = "50%"
! Property!! Description
|-
| Key|| External primary key. Can be the The '''file path ''' to the external document or a byte stream(ubik needs to have access to it). External primary key.
|-
| File name|| The name of the external file (including its extension).
|}
MetaProperties:
{| class="wikitable" | width = "50%"
|-
! Property!! Description
== DocumentBatchProxyCreator BatchDocumentProxyCreator ==The DocumentBatchProxyCreator BatchDocumentProxyCreator class provides the possibility to create multiple Document Proxies with the import status set to QuedForReadFromExternal.
The following two methods can be executed by e.g. using Who-Bert:
'''Example: Asking a DocumentBatchProxyCreator BatchDocumentProxyCreator to create Document Proxies for all documents in a folder(top level only) without filters. The import status will be set to QuedForReadFromExternal for all of them.'''
