Merge Assets

Purpose

Merges two assets and marks the merged asset as fulfilled. Assets already marked as fulfilled are skipped. Uses the same matching mechanism as register assets BLidget to match assets.

 

Usage

This BLidget should be used on assets already in BLAM which require matching to placeholders or an already existing asset in BLAM using the assets original filename and (optional) match pattern.

The top pin outputs merged assets. The bottom pin outputs assets which were unmodified. The result of the merge attempt can be (optionally) saved to a metadata field on the successfully merged asset or the unmodified original.

Hint: To strip out the file extension, use (.+?)\.[^.]*$|$ as the Filename Match Pattern.
