Data Management Editor

Overview

DMEEditor (Data Management Enterprize Editor) is a central class encapsulating the functionalities of data management in a multi-tenant application environment. It acts as an orchestrator for various components involved in data handling, transformation, and storage.

Features

  • Multi-Tenant Support: Handles data operations in a multi-tenant setup with ContainerMode.
  • Data Source Management: Manages a collection of data sources for various types of data operations.
  • ETL Processing: Integrated support for Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) processes.
  • Configuration Management: Manages configurations related to data sources and application settings.
  • Data Type and Conversion Support: Handles data type conversions and mappings between different sources.
  • Dynamic Class Handling: Provides dynamic handling and loading of classes for data sources, add-ins, etc.
  • Error Handling and Logging: Centralized error handling and logging mechanisms.
  • Workflow Management: Supports the management of data workflows.
  • Entity Structure Creation: Facilitates creating and managing entity structures based on data objects.

Properties

  • ContainerMode: Indicates if the application is running in a containerized environment.
  • DataSources: A list of data sources used in the application.
  • ETL: An instance for handling ETL processes.
  • ConfigEditor: Manages loading and saving configuration settings.
  • TypesHelper: Assists in type management and mapping.
  • Utilfunction: A utility class for various helper functions.
  • AssemblyHandler: Manages loading of classes and assemblies.
