Asset Validation

The "Asset Validation" plugin allows to validate assets and marks them if they do not pass the validation.

Properties

To be configured in {home}/appserver/conf/custom.properties

assetValidation.license

type: String, required: yes, default: -

License key (delivered by brix IT Solutions)

assetValidation.validators

type: List of String (comma-separated), required: yes, default: -

This property takes a list of all validators that are enabled.

Validators

Every Validator has its own properties. For every validator, the following properties are the same. Replace validatorName with the name of the validator specified in the section for the validator further down.

assetValidation.validatorName.nodeIdValid

type: long, required: no, default: -

If this property is set, the valid assets are collected in the configured node. This can help to find the valid assets and get an overview. Initially, all the assets can be validated and added to the node by running the "Revalidate Assets"-Task in "General"-Tab in System Tasks.

assetValidation.validatorName.nodeIdInvalid

type: long, required: no, default: -

If this property is set, the invalid assets are collected in the configured node. This can help to find the valid assets and get an overview. Initially, all the assets can be validated and added to the node by running the "Revalidate Assets"-Task in "General"-Tab in System Tasks.

assetValidation.validatorName.imagePath

type: String, required: no, default: -

This property takes a 16x16 px image which is shown on invalid assetes. NOTE: to show the bullet, the validatorName needs to be added to the list of bullets in the property "guiPlugin.bullets.asset=". This property is global and maybe also used by other plugins. If not, the celum bullets need to be added to the list, e.g. guiPlugin.bullets.asset=noAssetType,invalidInformationFields,unlinked,unreleased,availability,locked,duplicate,conversionStatus,fileTypeWhitelistValdiator
