tDenormalizeSortedRow – Docs for ESB 7.x

tDenormalizeSortedRow

Synthesizes sorted input flow to save memory.

tDenormalizeSortedRow combines in
a group all input sorted rows. Distinct values of the denormalized
sorted row are joined with item separators.

tDenormalizeSortedRow Standard properties

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

The Standard
tDenormalizeSortedRow component belongs to the Processing 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.

Click Edit
schema
to make changes to the schema. If the current schema is of the Repository type, three options are available:

  • View schema: choose this
    option to view the schema only.

  • Change to built-in property:
    choose this option to change the schema to Built-in for local changes.

  • Update repository connection:
    choose this option to change the schema stored in the repository and decide whether
    to propagate the changes to all the Jobs upon completion. If you just want to
    propagate the changes to the current Job, you can select No upon completion and choose this schema metadata
    again in the Repository Content
    window.

Click Sync columns to retrieve
the schema from the previous component in the Job.

 

Built-in: You create the schema
and store it locally for the relevant component. 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 flowcharts. Related topic: see

Talend Studio User
Guide
.

Input rows count

Enter the number of input rows.

To denormalize

Enter the name of the column to denormalize.

Advanced settings

tStatCatcher Statistics

Select this ckeck box to collect the log data at component
level.

Global Variables

Global Variables

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.

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.

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.

Usage

Usage rule

This component handles flows of data therefore it requires input
and output components.

Regrouping sorted rows

This Java scenario describes a four-component Job. It aims at reading a
given delimited file row by row, sorting input data by sort type and order,
denormalizing all input sorted rows and displaying the output on the Run log console.

  • Drop the following components from the Palette onto the design workspace: tFileInputDelimited, tSortRow, tDenormalizeSortedRow, and tLogRow.

  • Connect the four components using Row
    Main
    links.

  • In the design workspace, select tFileInputDelimited.

  • Click the Component tab to
    define the basic settings for tFileInputDelimited.

tDenormalizeSortedRow_2.png
  • Set Property Type to
    Built-In.

  • Fill in a path to the processed file in the File Name field. The name_list file used in this example holds two columns, id and first
    name.

  • If needed, define row and field separators, header and footer,
    and the number of processed rows.

  • Set Schema to Built in and click the three-dot button next to
    Edit Schema to define the data to
    pass on to the next component. The schema in this example consists of two
    columns, id and name.

tDenormalizeSortedRow_4.png
  • In the design workspace, select tSortRow.

  • Click the Component tab
    to define the basic settings for tSortRow.

tDenormalizeSortedRow_5.png
  • Set the Schema Type to
    Built-In and click Sync columns to retrieve the schema from the
    tFileInputDelimited component.

  • In the Criteria panel,
    use the plus button to add a line and set the sorting parameters for the schema
    column to be processed. In this example we want to sort the id columns in ascending order.

  • In the design workspace, select tDenormalizeSortedRow.

  • Click the Component tab
    to define the basic settings for tDenormalizeSortedRow.

tDenormalizeSortedRow_6.png
  • Set the Schema Type to
    Built-In and click Sync columns to retrieve the schema from the
    tSortRow component.

  • In the Input rows
    count
    field, enter the number of the input rows to be processed or
    press Ctrl+Space to access the context
    variable list and select the variable: tFileInputDelimited_1_NB_LINE.

  • In the To denormalize
    panel, use the plus button to add a line and set the parameters to the column to
    be denormalize. In this example we want to denormalize the name column.

  • In the design workspace, select tLogRow and click the Component tab to define its basic settings. For more
    information about tLogRow, see tLogRow.

  • Save your Job and press F6 to execute it.

The result displayed on the console shows how the name column was denormalize.
