 | aspects:</p><ul><li><strong>Implementing the concrete migration</strong>: Developers need to craft the specific migration logic that facilitates the | 
 | seamless transition of configuration options.</li><li><strong>Registering the migration</strong>: Developers should register their migration procedures at the extensions service, | 
 | allowing StreamPipes to identify and apply the necessary updates to affected instances.</li></ul><p>By adhering to these two essential tasks, developers can ensure a hassle-free evolution of pipeline elements while | 
 | StreamPipes handles the orchestration of the migration process.</p><p>The following gives a concrete example of creating a migration for | 
 | the <a href="/docs/next/pe/org.apache.streampipes.connect.iiot.adapters.plc4x.s7/">S7 adapter</a>. | 
 | Thereby, we assume this adapter has received a new input element which determines whether the connection should be made | 
 | authenticated or not. | 
 | This is represented by a simple boolean that is visualized as a toggle button in the UI.</p><h3 class="anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_LWe7" id="implementing-a-concrete-migration">Implementing a Concrete Migration<a href="#implementing-a-concrete-migration" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to Implementing a Concrete Migration" title="Direct link to Implementing a Concrete Migration"></a></h3><p>StreamPipes offers three distinct migration mechanisms tailored to specific types of pipeline | 
 | elements: <code>IAdapterMigrator</code>, <code>IDataProcessorMigrator</code>, and <code>IDataSinkMigrator</code>. | 
 | These migration mechanisms are presented as interfaces and require the implementation of two fundamental methods:</p><ul><li><code>config()</code>: This method defines the configuration for the migration, encompassing all essential metadata related to | 
 | the migration process.</li><li><code>migrate()</code>: Within this method, the actual migration logic is to be implemented. It serves as the operational core | 
 | for facilitating the migration for the respective pipeline element.</li></ul><p>In accordance with the example described above, we will implement the <code>Plc4xS7AdapterMigrationV1</code> in the following.</p><div class="theme-admonition theme-admonition-note alert alert--secondary admonition_LlT9"><div class="admonitionHeading_tbUL"><span class="admonitionIcon_kALy"><svg viewBox="0 0 14 16"><path fill-rule="evenodd" d="M6.3 5.69a.942.942 0 0 1-.28-.7c0-.28.09-.52.28-.7.19-.18.42-.28.7-.28.28 0 .52.09.7.28.18.19.28.42.28.7 0 .28-.09.52-.28.7a1 1 0 0 1-.7.3c-.28 0-.52-.11-.7-.3zM8 7.99c-.02-.25-.11-.48-.31-.69-.2-.19-.42-.3-.69-.31H6c-.27.02-.48.13-.69.31-.2.2-.3.44-.31.69h1v3c.02.27.11.5.31.69.2.2.42.31.69.31h1c.27 0 .48-.11.69-.31.2-.19.3-.42.31-.69H8V7.98v.01zM7 2.3c-3.14 0-5.7 2.54-5.7 5.68 0 3.14 2.56 5.7 5.7 5.7s5.7-2.55 5.7-5.7c0-3.15-2.56-5.69-5.7-5.69v.01zM7 .98c3.86 0 7 3.14 7 7s-3.14 7-7 7-7-3.12-7-7 3.14-7 7-7z"></path></svg></span>note</div><div class="admonitionContent_S0QG"><p>Before we begin, it's important to familiarize ourselves with two key conventions that guide our approach to migrations:</p><ul><li>To maintain clarity and organization, all migration classes associated with a specific pipeline element are located |

to How Migrations are Handled Internally" title="Direct link to How Migrations are Handled Internally"></a></h2><p>Migrations are handled by an interplay between the Extension Service, which provides the migrations, | 
 | and the StreamPipes Core Service, which manages the migrations, as shown in the figure below:</p><img loading="lazy" src="/img/06_sdk_migrations/migration-flow.png" alt="Interplay of extensions service and core to handle migrations" class="img_ev3q"><p>When an extensions service is initiated and has successfully registered itself with the core, it proceeds to send a | 
 | request to the core. This request includes a comprehensive list of all available migrations that have been registered | 
 | for it. Since this collection of migrations may encompass multiple migrations that affect the same pipeline element, | 
 | the migrations are first de-duplicated and then sorted based on their version range before being transmitted.</p><p>Upon receiving these migrations, the core's actions can be categorized into two distinct parts:</p><ul><li>Update descriptions for new elements</li><li>Update descriptions for existing elements</li></ul><h3 class="anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_LWe7" id="update-descriptions-for-new-elements">Update Descriptions for New Elements<a href="#update-descriptions-for-new-elements" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to Update Descriptions for New Elements" title="Direct link to Update Descriptions for New Elements"></a></h3><p>Each migration transmitted from the extensions service to the core triggers the core to update the description of the | 
 | corresponding element stored in CouchDB. This is achieved by requesting the current configuration from the extensions | 
 | service and subsequently overwriting the existing configuration in the storage.</p><h3 class="anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_LWe7" id="update-descriptions-for-existing-elements">Update Descriptions for Existing Elements<a href="#update-descriptions-for-existing-elements" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to Update Descriptions for Existing Elements" title="Direct link to Update Descriptions for Existing Elements"></a></h3><p>For each migration sent from the extensions service to the core, the core conducts a thorough check to determine if any | 
 | existing elements are affected by this migration. If such elements are identified, the extensions service is tasked with | 
 | requesting and subsequently executing the migration on behalf of the core.</p><p>In scenarios where multiple applicable migrations exist for a single pipeline element, they are sequentially applied. | 
 | Success in this process allows the core to seamlessly update the configuration. However, if any issues arise, the | 
 | corresponding pipeline element is halted. In the case of processors and sinks, the associated pipeline is even marked | 
 | with a <code>needs attention</code> label, which comes apparent in the UI.</p></div><footer class="theme-doc-footer docusaurus-mt-lg"><div class="theme-doc-footer-edit-meta-row row"><div class="col"></div><div class="col lastUpdated_vwxv"><span class="theme-last-updated">Last updated<!-- --> on <b><time datetime="2023-11-08T22:20:09.000Z">Nov 8, 2023</time></b> by <b>Tim</b></span></div></div></footer></article><nav class="pagination-nav docusaurus-mt-lg" aria-label="Docs pages"><a class="pagination-nav__link pagination-nav__link--prev" href="/docs/next/extend-sdk-event-model/"><div class="pagination-nav__sublabel">Previous</div><div class="pagination-nav__label">SDK: Event Model</div></a><a class="pagination-nav__link pagination-nav__link--next" href="/docs/next/extend-sdk-stream-requirements/"><div class="pagination-nav__sublabel">Next</div><div class="pagination-nav__label">SDK: Stream Requirements</div></a></nav></div></div><div class="col col--3"><div class="tableOfContents_bqdL thin-scrollbar theme-doc-toc-desktop"><ul class="table-of-contents table-of-contents__left-border"><li><a href="#define-migrations" class="table-of-contents__link toc-highlight">Define Migrations</a><ul><li><a href="#implementing-a-concrete-migration" class="table-of-contents__link toc-highlight">Implementing a Concrete Migration</a></li><li><a href="#registering-the-migration" class="table-of-contents__link toc-highlight">Registering the Migration</a></li></ul></li><li><a href="#how-migrations-are-handled-internally" class="table-of-contents__link toc-highlight">How Migrations are Handled Internally</a><ul><li><a href="#update-descriptions-for-new-elements" class="table-of-contents__link toc-highlight">Update Descriptions for New Elements</a></li><li><a href="#update-descriptions-for-existing-elements" class="table-of-contents__link toc-highlight">Update Descriptions for Existing Elements</a></li></ul></li></ul></div></div></div></div></main></div></div><footer class="container_yWIM"><div class="linksRow_XFIr"><div class="linksCol_rFJL"><div>ASF</div><ul><li class="footer__item"><a href="https://www.apache.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><span></span><span>Foundation</span></a></li><li class="footer__item"><a href="https://www.apache.org/licenses/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><span></span><span>License</span></a></li><li class="footer__item"><a href="https://www.apache.org/events/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><span></span><span>Events</span></a></li><li class="footer__item"><a href="https://www.apache.org/security/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><span></span><span>Security</span></a></li><li class="footer__item"><a href="https://www.apache.org/foundation/sponsorship.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><span></span><span>Sponsorship</span></a></li><li class="footer__item"><a href="https://www.apache.org/foundation/thanks.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><span></span><span>Thanks</span></a></li></ul></div><div class="linksCol_rFJL"><div>Community</div><ul><li class="footer__item"><a href="https://github.com/apache/streampipes/issues" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><span></span><span>GitHub Issues</span></a></li><li class="footer__item"><a href="https://github.com/apache/streampipes/discussions" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><span></span><span>Github Discussions</span></a></li><li class="footer__item"><a href="https://twitter.com/StreamPipes" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><span></span><span>Twitter</span></a></li><li class="footer__item"><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/apache-streampipes" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><span></span><span>LinkedIn</span></a></li></ul></div><div class="linksCol_rFJL"><div>More</div><ul><li class="footer__item"><a target="_parent" href="/blog/"><span></span><span>Blog</span></a></li><li class="footer__item"><a href="https://privacy.apache.org/policies/privacy-policy-public.html" target="_parent" rel="noopener noreferrer"><span></span><span>Privacy</span></a></li></ul></div></div><div class="copyright_AoBa"><a href="https://www.apache.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><span style="display:inline-block;width:231.25px;height:40px"></span></a><div>Copyright © 2019-2025 The Apache Software Foundation.
