URL to File Path (Variable)

Converts the url strings of the specified string flow variable into file path strings. Four string flow variables will be set. The first contains the complete file path, the second the parent folder of the file, the third contains the file name (without extension), and the last contains the file extension.
It can be specified whether the node will fail if an invalid url string occurs or a file location does not exist. If failing is switched off (default) empty strings will set as values for each output variable.
