What is the maximum file size that can be downloaded via API request and stored in the /tmp folder?
The maximum amount of available space you have in the /tmp directory to save any file is 512MB. This is the limit for the size of files you can download via API request and store in the /tmp folder on Pipedream. For more details, you can refer to the Pipedream documentation on working with files: Working with files in Node.js.
Will the /tmp folder be automatically cleaned up or it is manually done?
The /tmp directory on Pipedream is a temporary file storage location that is cleaned up after each workflow execution. You do not need to manually clean up files in /tmp; they are automatically removed when the workflow completes. This ensures that each workflow run starts with a clean state. For more information on working with files in Python steps, you can refer to the Pipedream documentation on File storage.

how to convert a .docx file into a .pdf file?
To convert a .docx file to a .pdf file using Pipedream, you would typically use an API that provides this functionality, as Pipedream itself does not have a built-in component specifically for converting document formats. Here’s a general approach using Node.js code within a Pipedream workflow: 1. Upload the .docx file to a storage service that can be accessed via HTTP (e.g., AWS S3, Google Drive). 2. Use an API that converts .docx to .pdf. There are several third-party services like CloudConvert, Zamzar, or API2PDF that you can use. 3. Make an HTTP request from your Pipedream workflow to this API, sending the .docx file and specifying that you want a .pdf in return. 4. The API will return the .pdf file, which you can then download or send to another service as needed. Here’s a hypothetical example of how you might write the Node.js code in a Pipedream step to perform this conversion using an API (note that you will need to replace API_ENDPOINT and API_KEY with the actual values provided by the conversion service you choose): ```
import { axios } from “@pipedream/platform”; export default defineComponent({ async run({ steps, $ }) { const docxFileUrl = ‘URL_TO_YOUR_DOCX_FILE’; // Replace with your .docx file URL const apiEndpoint = ‘API_ENDPOINT’; // Replace with the actual API endpoint const apiKey = ‘API_KEY’; // Replace with your API key const response = await axios($, { method: ‘POST’, url: apiEndpoint, headers: { ‘Authorization’: Bearer ${apiKey}, ‘Content-Type’: ‘application/json’, }, data: { // API-specific payload structure input_format: ‘docx’, output_format: ‘pdf’, file: docxFileUrl, }, }); // The API should return a URL or binary data for the converted PDF // You can then use this data to download the PDF or send it to another service const pdfFile = response.data; // This will depend on the API’s response structure return pdfFile; }, });
is it impossible to achieve in a pipedream workflow>
It seems like your question may have been cut off. Could you please provide more details or clarify what you’re trying to achieve in a Pipedream workflow?
how to convert google docs document into HTML using mammoth
To convert a Google Docs document into HTML using Mammoth, you would need to follow these steps: 1. Download the Google Docs document as a .docx file using the Google Drive API. 2. Use Mammoth to convert the .docx file to HTML. Below is an example of how you might write a Pipedream component to accomplish this: ```
import { axios } from “@pipedream/platform”; import mammoth from “mammoth”; export default defineComponent({ props: { google: { type: “app”, app: “google”, }, }, async run({ steps, $ }) { // Replace ‘DOCUMENT_ID’ with the actual ID of your Google Docs document const documentId = “DOCUMENT_ID”; const response = await axios($, { method: “GET”, url: https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/${documentId}/export, headers: { Authorization: Bearer ${this.google.$auth.oauth_access_token}, }, params: { mimeType: “application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document”, }, responseType: “arraybuffer”, }); // Convert the downloaded .docx file to HTML using Mammoth const buffer = response.data; const result = await mammoth.convertToHtml({ arrayBuffer: buffer }); const html = result.value; // The generated HTML // Output the HTML return html; }, });
how to use Mommoth.js in pipedream workflow
To use Mammoth.js or any other npm package in a Pipedream workflow, you’ll need to write a Node.js code step that imports the package and uses it to perform the desired operation. Since Mammoth.js is typically used to convert .docx documents to HTML or plain text, I’ll provide an example of how you might use it within a Pipedream workflow. First, ensure that you have a .docx file available in your workflow context, either by uploading it to Pipedream or by receiving it as part of a trigger event. Here’s an example of how you might write a Pipedream component code step to use Mammoth.js: import mammoth from "mammoth"; import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"; export default defineComponent({ async run({ steps, $ }) { // Assuming you have a `docx` file URL from a previous step or trigger const docxFileUrl = steps.previousStep.file_url; // Download the `.docx` file using axios const response = await axios($, { method: "GET", url: docxFileUrl, responseType: "arraybuffer", }); // Convert the `.docx` file to HTML using Mammoth.js const result = await mammoth.convertToHtml({ arrayBuffer: response.data }); // The `value` property of the result contains the HTML const html = result.value; // Optionally, you can handle any warnings const messages = result.messages; // Return the HTML content return html; }, }); In this example, we’re using axios to download the .docx file from a URL, which might be provided by a previous step in your workflow. Then, we use Mammoth.js to convert the file to HTML. Please note that the actual implementation may vary depending on how you receive or access the .docx file within your workflow. If you need to handle files uploaded directly to Pipedream, you might use the $send.http function to receive the file and then process it with Mammoth.js.
