I am delighted to announce BizTalk Mapper Extensions UtilityPack. This is my first contribution to CodePlex with a BizTalk Open Source project.
📝 One-Minute Brief
The BizTalk Mapper Extensions UtilityPack is a collection of essential tools for BizTalk developers that extends the out-of-the-box mapping capabilities. It includes specialized functoids for string manipulation, date-time conversions, and advanced logic that are otherwise difficult to achieve without custom XSLT. Originally released on CodePlex, it is designed to accelerate development by providing tested, reusable assets that integrate directly into the Visual Studio Toolbox.
Project Description
BizTalk Mapper Extensions UtilityPack is a set of libraries with several useful functoids to include and use it in a map, which will provide an extension of BizTalk Mapper capabilities.
Conversion Functoids
- Convert from human-readable to epoch date Functoid: This functoid allows you to convert a traditional date (Human Readable Date) into a Unix date (Epoch Date).
- Convert from epoch to human readable date Functoid: This functoid allows you to convert a Unix date (Epoch Date) into a traditional date (Human Readable Date).
Dynamic Generators Functoids
- Password Generator Functoid: Use this functoid to build a random password.
- Guid Generator Functoid: This functoid allows you to generate a new Guid.
Encoder Functoids
- Base64 Encoder Functoid: This functoid allows you to decode Base64-encoded text strings.
- Base64 Decoder Functoid: This functoid allows you to convert a string object into base64 encoded string.
These libraries were made for BizTalk Server 2006/2006 R2, but they should work in BizTalk Server 2009 and 2010.
“In the future, I will optimize this project to BizTalk Server 2010/Visual Studio 2010.”
