tAddCRCRow

Provides a unique ID which helps improving the quality of processed
data. CRC stands for Cyclical Redundancy Checking.

tAddCRCRow calculates a surrogate key based on one or
several columns and adds it to the defined schema.

tAddCRCRow Standard properties

These properties are used to configure tAddCRCRow running in the Standard Job framework.

The Standard
tAddCRCRow component belongs to the Data Quality family.

The component in this framework is available in all Talend
products.

Basic settings

Schema and Edit Schema	A schema is a row description. it defines the number of fields to be processed and passed on to the next component. The schema is either Built-in or stored remotely in the Repository. In this component, a new CRC column is automatically added.
	Built-in: The schema will be created and stored locally for this component only. Related topic: see Talend Studio User Guide.
	Repository: The schema already exists and is stored in the Repository, hence can be reused in various projects and Job designs. Related topic: see Talend Studio User Guide.
Implication	Select the check box facing the relevant columns to be used for the surrogate key checksum.

Advanced Settings

CRC type	Select a CRC type in the list. The longer the CRC, the least overlap you will have.
tStat Catcher Statistics	Select this check box to collect log data at the component level.

Global Variables

Global Variables	NB_LINE: the number of rows read by an input component or transferred to an output component. This is an After variable and it returns an integer. ERROR_MESSAGE: the error message generated by the component when an error occurs. This is an After variable and it returns a string. This variable functions only if the Die on error check box is cleared, if the component has this check box. A Flow variable functions during the execution of a component while an After variable functions after the execution of the component. To fill up a field or expression with a variable, press Ctrl + Space to access the variable list and choose the variable to use from it. For further information about variables, see Talend Studio User Guide.

Adding a surrogate key to a file

This scenario describes a Job adding a surrogate key to a delimited file
schema.

Setting up the Job

Drop the following components: tFileInputDelimited, tAddCRCRow and tLogRow.
Connect them using a Main row
connection.

Configuring the input component

In the tFileInputDelimited
Component view, set the File Name path and all related properties in case
these are not stored in the Repository.
Create the schema through the Edit Schema
button, if the schema is not stored already in the Repository
. Remember to set the data
type column and for more information on the Date pattern to be filled in,
visit
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/index.html
.

Configuring the tAddCRCRow component

In the tAddCRCRow
Component view, select the check boxes of
the input flow columns to be used to calculate the CRC.

Notice that a CRC column (read-only) has been added at the end of the
schema.
Select CRC32 as CRC
Type to get a longer surrogate key.
In the Basic settings view of tLogRow, select the Print
values in cells of a table option to display the output data
in a table on the Console.

Job execution

Then save your Job and press F6 to execute
it.

An additional CRC Column has been added to the schema calculated on all previously
selected columns (in this case all columns of the schema).
