ID: 15088 Title: Views: Regex in 'Joined column' is now possible Component: Multisite Level: 1 Class: New feature Version: 2.2.0i1 Now you can use regexes in {{Joined column}}s. If multiple entries are found the first one of the sorted entries will be used. These regexes can be combined with macros in inventory based views and are evaluated {{AFTER}} the macro replacements. These macros don't need to be escaped, all other special characters have to be escaped: {{ORA $SID$\.SYSTEM Tablespace}} Example: <ul> <li>Choose {{Oracle instances}} as the data source</li> <li>Choose {{SID}} with {{$SID$}} below macros</li> <li>Now you can connect {{Services: Summary}} of the services {{ORA $SID$.(SYSAUX|TEMP) Tablespace}} below {{Joined column}}</li> </ul> Note: These regexes are basically case sensitive. If you need case insensitive regexes you have to add the global flag {{(?i)}} at the beginning of this regex. Example: <ul> <li>From the data source {{Oracle instances}} we get the SIDs in upper case format</li> <li>Items in filesystem service description are in lower case format</li> <li>Use the regex {{(?i)Filesystem /path/to/$SID$}} below {{Joined services}} in order to join the related service column</li> </ul>
