MIME type: application/dw

ID: dw

The DataWeave (dw) format is the canonical format for all transformations. This format can help you understand how input data is interpreted before it is transformed to a new format.

Note

This format is intended to help you debug the results of DataWeave transformations. It is significantly slower than other formats. It is not recommended to be used in production applications because it can impact the performance.

Example: Express XML in the DataWeave (dw) Format

The following example shows how to transform XML input to the DataWeave (dw) format.

Input

The example uses the following XML snippet as input.

<employees>

<employee>

<firstname>Mariano</firstname>

<lastname>DeAchaval</lastname>

</employee>

<employee>

<firstname>Leandro</firstname>

<lastname>Shokida</lastname>

</employee>

</employees>

Output

Output: in DataWeave Format

{

employees: {

employee: {

firstname: “Mariano”,

lastname: “DeAchaval”

},

employee: {

firstname: “Leandro”,

lastname: “Shokida”

}

}

} as Object {encoding: “UTF-8”, mimeType: “text/xml”}

Configuration Properties

deferred	Boolean	false	Generates the output as a data stream when set to true, and defers the script’s execution until consumed.Valid values are true or false.
ignoreSchema	Boolean	false	Ignores the schema when set to true.Valid values are true or false.
indent	String	‘ ‘	String to use for indenting.
maxCollectionSize	Number	-1	Maximum number of elements allowed in an array or an object. -1 indicates no limitation.
onlyData	Boolean	true	Handles only data and not other types of content, such as functions, when set to true. The DataWeave parser runs faster in the onlyData mode.Valid values are true or false.
