             Summary: File transfer management with communicationEvent and new contactMech FTP_ADDRESS
                 Key: OFBIZ-10245
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-10245
             Project: OFBiz
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: content, party
            Reporter: Gil Portenseigne
            Assignee: Gil Portenseigne


This Jira introduce a new way to manage file transfer in OFBiz.

Inspired by mailing communication event management, a new communicationEventTypeId is created ('FILE_TRANSFER_COMM').

Such commEvent with classics : partyIdFrom/partyIdTo/contactMechIdTo/entryDate etc. are analysed by a job (like sendEmailDated), to send associated contents to a configured FTP/SFTP/FTPS server. If failure happens, it is catched and stored in communicationEvent, waiting for a new try.

For this purpose :
 # A new contactMechTypeId is introduced (FtpAddress), with its corresponding table. This contactMech store needed information for basic user/password authentication (server url and protocol, port, username, password, etc.)
 # A new service sendFileTransferDated (wip) that will look for pending file transfer and call following service.
 # A new service sendCommEventAsFtp that take a selected commEvent, check its structure and manage its status after trying the associated content file transfers
 # A new service sendContentToFtp, that take a content and transfer it to a given FtpAddress
 # A seca createCommEventFromFtpTransfer on sendContentToFtp to manage plural content file transfer, creating children communicationEvent to follow each content transfer separately (only for several content transfers).
 # A new Interface FtpClientInterface, with the 3 implementations of FTP, FTPS (To be Done), SFTP clients to manage Ftp connection and transfer
 # A new property file to enable and manage redirection for testing purpose


With this implementation, creating a communicationEvent, with a FtpAddress contactMechIdTo, and sendFileTransferDated job planned :
 * The file is transfered to the ftp : communication event status set to COM_COMPLETE
 * Error occured : communication event status set to COM_BOUNCED with error message on communicationEvent note

The POC is working nicely for our customer, i adapted and tested it on trunk here : https://labs.nereide.fr/10031/Communautaire/compare/trunk...SendCommEventToFtp (some more job to be done, but in a working state)

I can provide the current patch on demand but i will propose more polished work in some days.

Looking forward reading you !
