iplookup

iplookup

This program is used to add FipHdr fields matched against a key field in a
lookup file. The original header and text are left untouched.

The format of the lookup file is :
    (Search String) (separator) (NewField1) [optional sep] [opt new2]...(eoln)
    One item per line.
    Lines starting with a semicolon ';' are considered comments and are ignored.

Examples - a tab delimited file
    ICI     ICI.EU  CHEMICALS   "Imperial Chemical Industries"
    ATT     ATT.US  TELECOMS    "A.T. & T."
or a CSV file as Lotus or Excel might generate :
    "Maserati","Italian","Brillo"
    "TVR","British","Knockout"
or a file of your own making - such as one with pipes as separators :
    747|Boeing|long distance|4 engines|commercial
    300|Airbus|short distance|2 engines|commercial

In each of these cases the program will attempt to match the content of a
specified FipHdr field with the FIRST field on the line.

Note that if you have a very big lookup file, processing is vastly speeded up
by sorting it beforehand in ascending order and letting the program hash this
sorted file.
For Unix Sort :             sort -b -o sorted.file orig.file
or if the separator is a Pipe '|' : sort -b -t\| -o sorted.file orig.file

If you change the Lookup file, pls kill and reactive the program to get it to
read the new version as it reads the lookup file once only and uses the copy in
memory for processing.

The parameter file describing where the lookup file is for the data is held in
tables/setup and defaults to 'LOOKUP'. This can be overridden by the DY: fipHdr
field. As per normal the name of the parameter file is forced uppercase.

There is also a question of where to send the output file as this, by default,
is put in spool/2go for IPWHEEL to distribute. So it needs a Destination(s) or
DU FipHdr field. This is added by either :
    - It there is a DX FipHdr field in the input file, that is used.
    - If not, the keyword 'dest' is used in the parameter file.
    - If that is not specified either, it is sent to 'woops' the Intercept queue.
    - You may also specify it from the incoming data or attribute-data using the
'fixhdr' keyword.
        In this case the contents of DX, 'dest' or 'woops' will be the default if
there is no data.

If using the Reuters MetaData Repository switch, the lookup (but NOT template)
files are ignored and the data is added to the output file directly (minus the
Newsml tags).

Keywords for LOOKUP parameter file are :
Mandatory:
    ; comment line
    lookup: file containing codes to match and any additional fields.
        eg lookup:/data1/MATCHCODES
    match:(existing FipHdr field)   Match FipHdr field with lookup table entry
        Optional subKeywords
            newfld:(Fip1, Fip2, Fip3)   one or more 2 letter FipHdr Codes
                    The additional fields on the lookup lines will be allocated to these
FipHdr names.
                    By default thes are L0 for the first field, L1 the second etc
                    eg if the lookup file has 5 fields - the first being the match.
                        newfld:AB,FF,AC,L6
                        will stuff field 2 in AB, 3 in FF, 4 in AC and 5 into L6
            default:    Default value if NOT found (in FipSeq)
                    There is NO default default - the field is ignored.
        Up to 50 hdr fields may be matched.
    There is also a 'repeat-match' keyword which allows a single field containing
    multiple items to be broken automatically into zones and EACH zone is matched
in turn.
    (see below)

Optional:
    sorted  The match field (first field) of the Lookup File
            is in the correct sort order.
            default:no
    sep:    single chr Field separator in the Lookup file
                This is defaults to any run of Tabs/Spcs
    casesens:y  Match Fields are Case sensitive - normally NOT.
    fmt:csv     Comma separated lookup file - ie strip double quotes.
            This does NOT affect the Separator which should be set if NOT tab/spcs.
            default is Space/Tab separated
    outque: output queue for the new file.
    dest:   Destination (as in sys/USERS)
    extra-fiphdr:
or  fixhdr: more fixed Fip Hdr fields to add to the file (before any new matched
additions)
    script: script to run against the New file.     default: none
    newname: name of the output file.
    template: Use the template and fill in with the new FipHdr values.
    repeat-sep: Separator for repeat-match fields   default: '+'
    log-line: Substitute log line.

    REUTERS-HEADLINE:KK,M9
    REUTERS-SLUGLINE:MD,M8
    REUTERS-LANGUAGE:KF
    REUTERS-PRIORITY:KH
    REUTERS-GET-XML:yes for XXnews

    reuters-topic-lookup:\\R8
    reuters-ccs-lookup:\\R6
    REUTERS-iso-LC-file:mrm.language.fip
    This is read once on startup and should be in the default
    parameter file only.
        syntax is   LANG-VARIANT-Duid (NL)
            eg  en-GB-T0024959592

    The Genre processing uses FipHdr fields J0 to J9
    plus    R9 for the Genre Duid
            R8 for Language Duid
            R0 for Language Variant
            R6 list of paths/topics

    For Reuters PNAC processing, the relevant FipHdr fields needs :
    reuters-sq-topics:KB
    reuters-sq-priority:KF
    reuters-sq-filed:WK
    reuters-sq-source:QR
    combie:QR   M3|KZ|KV,RTRS

    ;move these from Topic to Products
    reuters-rnp:DF XRNP

    ; NTM teXt or Table Fiphdr to add a <PRE>
    reuters-TX-fiphdr:KE

Where sections of FipHdr fields are required or changes to the output style,
use keywords : fixed, partial, combie, optional, repeat, newdate and/or style.
(see The SysAdmin manual for more information).

    They are normally specified :
        fixed:QZ    1234543
        partial:QT  ST,3,2,U,<,>
        combie:QY   ep|na,(0000000)a
        option:QE   ep,11,7,s
        repeat:QK   XK,-,3
    or  repeat:QP   PK,,4,#X
        style:QS    XN,%.03d
        unique:QT   XT

------------------------------------------------------
Example LOOKUP file :
; Codes file is in MATCHCODES
lookup:/fip/tables/setup/MATCHCODES
; field sep in MATCHCODES is a pipe
sep:|
; incoming FipHdr field is in the format :
;SH::LP:N0297:VZ:H-----:PU:CF:TFXJ.AU-PBL.AU-BRY.NZ:KHeavy Selling in
Australian Publishing
; Breakup the XT Fip Source Header field into 3 fields called Q1,Q2,Q3 divided
by a hyphen
; note that Q1,Q2,Q3 are for internal use only - they do NOT get created in the
output file.
repeat:Q1   XT,-,1
repeat:Q2   XT,-,2
repeat:Q3   XT,-,3
; match each one of these against the MATCHCODE table and create (up to) 4 new
header fields.
match:Q1    newfld:A1,A2,A3,A4
match:Q2    newfld:B1,B2,B3,B4
match:Q3    newfld:C1,C2,C3,C4

-- The MATCHCODES file in this case could look like :
; with a sep of PIPE, first field is the key, a newline finishes each line
; the file should be sorted on the first field.

------------------------------------------------------
Notes
-----
Use the repeat-match for cases where the input field looks something like :
    WT:ASIA EMRG IN IND AUT MAC RES

To use :

; make sure the codes are unique and separated by a single plus sign
unique:AT   WT
; go get a match for each one ! - rptfld holds the FipHdr contining just this
single search.
repeat-match:AT     newfld:W2,W3,W4     rptfld:W1

You then have to define what to do with the output.
 - If you do nothing, then there will be multiple 'W1,W2 etc' etc in the FipHdr
   BUT only the last one will be accessible!
 - If you are using templates, then a new template is generated for each
   match. Each template will be appended to the last for the output file.

------------------------------
Normally 'iplookup' only adds new FipHdrs and the data or text of the file is
not changed at all.

There are times however when you wish to use the new lookup headers immediately

The 
    V1 is the index to our table - which provides uniqueness inside the file for
Duids and other ids
    V2 is the original search key
    V3... is the first new field
    if there are any more fields, they are V4, V5 etc

text-template: (file in table/setup)

<rn2wEntity><Category Type="COMPANY" Resolve="tf_entity" Alias="\V1"
SearchCount="1"><SearchResult IdRef="\V3"/></Category>\V2</Entity>

newV1: (FipHdr to use inplace of V1, V2 and V3 if they are used elsewhere)

------------------------------
In the current version only ONE lookup file can be searched per file. To search
more, you need to run the file through the program twice, hopefully against
different parameter files!

In the first parameter file, use 'outque' and 'extra-fiphdr' to loop :
    ; stuff it back into 2lookup afterwards
    outque:2lookup
    ; use the 2nd parameter file /fip/tables/setup/PARAM2
    extra-fiphdr:#DY:param2

OR if there are two very big lookups, you will not want to read and hash each
lookup for every file coming though - so if sub-second speed is importnat, use
two 'iplookups' in the SYSTEM file and use either input switch '-o' or 'outque'
to get the files from one to the other.
    look1   local   iplookup -i 2lookup -o 2lookup2 -z param1
    look2   local   iplookup -i 2lookup2  -z param2

------------------------------
The Parameter file is read every time a file is processed. The lookup file is
first checked to see if it is the same as the last request or if it has changed
before reloading.

Note this is a change from version 04c, before which a change to the lookup
needed a stop and restart of iplookup to load the new version.

------------------------------
There are extra parameters for the MRM v2 :
    reuters-check-headline:K5
This will also check the FipHdr K5 and replace any RICs with Entity tags. Any
'<' and '>' tags are mapped to 036 and 037 for mapping back in a subsequent
xchg. 
    reuters-RICs-in-text:U9
Split CompanyIds/Rics into the original FipHdr field plus U9 for any that
appear in Text
    reuters-ignore-RICS-in-text:B9
If this FipHdr field is NON-blank, do NOT look for Rics in the text.

------------------------------

Input Parameters are (all optional) :
Either
    -1 : path/filename for single shot      default: spooled
        The input file is NOT deleted
        If this does NOT start with a '/', it is assumed relative to the current
path.
Or
    -i : input queue            default: spool/2lookup
        If this does NOT start with a '/', it is assumed under spool.

    -D : time in seconds to sweep the queue     default: not enabled
        Use this to batch and delay copy for 20 mins -D 1200
    -h : Show results from Reuters MRM          default: no
    -H : display ONLY the new FipHdr fields
        The default is a complete file with FipHdr and data
        This is of most use with the '-1' single file switch.
    -l : do NOT log files in        default: log
    -o : output queue           default: spool/2go
        If this does NOT start with a '/', it is assumed under spool.
        This is overridden by the 'outque' or 'outdest' parameters if they exist.
    -r : Reuters Duid checking for internal NewsML feed         default: no
    -R : use the Reuters Metadata Repository for the Lookup.    default: no
    -C : do NOT use Reuters CCS codes (ie old variants)         default: CCS
    -w : file wait for files arriving across a network. def: 8 secs
    -z : default parameter file in tables/setup default: tables/setup/LOOKUP
    -v : print version number and exit
