event component name

[pa...@fielding.ca]

So I'm trying to write a transform that (among other things) stuffs the component name of an OS Process into the Summary.  However, the resulting name I'm getting differs from the readable name.  In the event in the UI I see:

Component: PC7_DC.exe

However, evt.component gives me "zport_dmd_Processes_PowerSpring_osProcessClasses_PC7_DC_b2c1db346f9a88fd56a4c8fdf5e76118"

I seem to recall that I could get the short name using SOMETHING along the lines of 'evt.componentString' or 'evt.componentName' or even 'evt.component.name'.   Something along those lines.  Anyone know what I'm looking for?

thanks, 

Paul

You could use the component object if it exists. This object gets created if the component exists on the device at the time of event enrichment (zeneventd).

You could also do some janky loops on the dev object or simply take the evt.component and pull out the Process Class from the string.

if component and hasattr(component, 'osProcessClass'):

    componentName = component.osProcessClass().titleOrId()

Also worth noting that if you wanted the component title you could use "component.titleOrId()". But component titles are the path + exe (usually).

Yeah I ended up using component.titleOrId(), it did the job nicely…….
