BO Data Services Dataflow Generator

This python based program can generate BO Data Services dataflows using CSV as input. The current version only supports generating separat jobs, workflows and dataflows.

Instructions:

• Create a CSV according to the sample.csv format. Provide type (job, workflow or dataflow), name and subobjects (optional) Make sure objects are given hierarchical with the lowest object first - if they are dependent. E.g. workflow that is involved in job: first line in the csv is the workflow, second line is the job
• Run the program with parameters:
  1. input csv file (with directory if in another directory)
  2. output xml file (with directory if in another directory)
• Load the output xml file into data services

Example: python codeGenerator.py sample.csv output.xml

Tested against BODS version: 14.2.10.1748 In theory it should work with other versions of BODS
