Connect the Treeresolver¶

The Treeresolver connector, which is the seal-operator-treeresolver service, is used for traversing a directory structure and creating a document list from the found items. From the document list, a task can be created for a PLOSSYS 5, DPF or PLOSSYS netdome system for example and then also be started. Any directory structure is possible that is provided by the Fileupload (scratch), the PLOSSYS@rchive or the SharePoint connector.

For connecting the Treeresolver, execute the following steps:

Activate the Connector and Specify the Keys for the Connection¶

In SEAL Operator, activate the connector and specify the keys for the connection:

Export the complete configuration of SEAL Operator from Consul to a YAML file in order to ensure that the current configuration settings are used.
```
operator config export <filename>.yml --insecure
```

In the section of the Treeresolver connector, set cstatus to on.

operator:
  connectors:
  ...
    treeresolver:
      cstatus: 'on'
      serviceName: operator-treeresolver
      url: 'https://localhost:3018'
  ...

In the env section, specify the following optional keys for the seal-operator-treeresolver service unless the defaults fit:
- ITEM_TYPE: Type of items to be collected
- SORT_COLLECTIONS_FIRST: Directories are listed before the other items
- SORT_METADATA: Metadata keys used for sorting the items
- SORT_OVERALL: Sorting over all items or in each directory
Literature - keys

For further information about the available keys, refer to the description of the Keys.
Save the <filename>.yml file and re-import it to Consul.
```
operator config import <filename>.yml --insecure
```
