TextFile

The TextFile output module allows you to write data to a simple text file.

Note that this text file will contain only the live values currently being read - it doesn't maintain a log of events or values (see LogFile if you want that).

This is often used with older systems reading data through FTP.

ParameterDefaultMeaning
filenameThe full path to the file to write

Example

[
   {
       "method": "textfile",
       "filename": "c:\tmp\myfile.txt"
   }
]

The above example would send values to a plain text file at c:\tmp\myfile.txt on Windows systems.
