The three ELT Oracle components are closely related, in terms of their operating
conditions. These components should be used to handle Oracle database schemas to
generate Insert, Update or Delete statements, including clauses, which are to be
executed in the database output table defined.

Usage |
tELTOracleOutput is to be used NoteNote that the ELT components do not handle actual data flow |
|
Log4j |
The activity of this component can be logged using the log4j feature. For more information on this feature, see Talend Studio User For more information on the log4j logging levels, see the Apache documentation at http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/apidocs/org/apache/log4j/Level.html. |
This scenario describes a Job that allows you to add new customer information and
update existing customer information in a database table using the Oracle MERGE command.
-
Drop the following components from the Palette to the design workspace: tELTOracleInput, tELTOracleMap, and tELTOracleOutput.
-
Label tELTOracleInput as new_customer, tELTOracleMap as ELT
Mapper, and tELTOracleOutput as
merge_data. -
Link tELTOracleInput to tELTOracleMap using a Row > New Output (table)
connection.In the pop-up box, enter NEW_CUSTOMERS
as the table name, which should be the actual database table name. -
Link tELTOracleMap to tELTOracleOutput using a Row > New Output (table)
connection.In the pop-up box, enter customers_merge as the name of the database table, which
holds the merge results.
-
Double-click the tELTOracleInput
component to display its Basic settings
view. -
Select Repository from the Schema list, click the […] button preceding Edit
schema, and select your database connection and the desired
schema from the [Repository Content] dialog
box.The selected schema name appears in the Default
Table Name field automatically.In this use case, the database connection is Talend_Oracle and the schema is
new_customers.Note
In this use case, the input schema is stored in the Metadata node of the Repository tree view for easy retrieval. For further
information concerning metadata, see Talend Studio User Guide.You can also select the input component by dropping the relevant
schema from the Metadata area onto the
design workspace and double-clicking tELTOracleInput from the [Components] dialog box. Doing so allows you to skip the
steps of labeling the input component and defining its schema manually. -
Click the tELTOracleMap component to
display its Basic settings view. -
Select Repository from the Property Type list, and select the same database
connection that you use for the input components.All the database details are automatically retrieved.
Leave the other settings as they are.
-
Double-click the tELTOracleMap component
to launch the ELT Map editor to set up the data transformation flow.Display the input table by clicking the green plus button at the upper
left corner of the ELT Map editor and selecting the relevant table name in
the [Add a new alias] dialog box.In this use case, the only input table is
new_customers. -
Select all the columns in the input table and drop them to the output
table. -
Click the Generated SQL Select query tab
to display the query statement to be executed.Click OK to validate the ELT Map settings
and close the ELT Map editor. -
Double-click the tELTOracleOutput
component to display its Basic settings
view.From the Action on data list, select
MERGE.Click the Sync columns button to retrieve
the schema from the preceding component.Select the Use Merge Update check box to
update the data using Oracle’s MERGE function. -
In the table that appears, select the check boxes for the columns you want
to update.In this use case, we want to update all the data according to the
customer ID. Therefore, select all the check boxes except the one for the
ID column.Warning
The columns defined as the primary key cannot and must not be
made subject to updates. -
Select the Use Merge Insert check box to
insert new data while updating the existing data by leveraging Oracle’s
MERGE function.In the table that appears, select the check boxes for the columns into
which you want to insert new data.In this use case, we want to insert all the new customer data. Therefore,
select all the check boxes by clicking the Check
All check box. -
Fill the Default Table Name field with
the name of the target table already existing in your database. In this
example, fill in customers_merge. -
Leave the other parameters as they are.
