tMysqlOutputBulkExec – Docs for ESB 7.x

tMysqlOutputBulkExec

Executes the Insert action in the specified MySQL or Aurora database.

As a dedicated component, tMysqlBulkExec improves performance when
performing Insert operations to a MySQL or Aurora database.

The tMysqlOutputBulk and
tMysqlBulkExec components are used together in a two step
process. In the first step, an output file is generated. In the second step, this file
is used in the INSERT statement used to feed a database. These two steps are fused
together in the tMysqlOutputBulkExec component.

tMysqlOutputBulkExec Standard properties

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

The Standard
tMysqlOutputBulkExec component belongs to the Databases family.

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

Note: This component is a specific version of a dynamic database
connector. The properties related to database settings vary depending on your database
type selection. For more information about dynamic database connectors, see Dynamic database components.

Basic settings

Database

Select a type of database from the list and click
Apply.

Property type

Either Built-in or
Repository
.

 

Built-in: No property data stored
centrally.

 

Repository: Select the repository
file in which the properties are stored. The fields that follow are
completed automatically using the data retrieved.

DB Version

Select the version of the database that you are using.

Host

Database server IP address

Port

Listening port number of DB server.

Database

Name of the database

Username and
Password

DB user authentication data.

To enter the password, click the […] button next to the
password field, and then in the pop-up dialog box enter the password between double quotes
and click OK to save the settings.

Action on table

On the table defined, you can perform one of the following
operations:

None: No operation is carried
out.

Drop and create table: The table is
removed and created again.

Create table: The table does not
exist and gets created.

Create table if not exists: The
table is created if it does not already exist.

Drop table if exists and create:
The table is removed if it already exists and created again.

Clear table: The table content is
deleted.

Table

Name of the table to be written.

Note:

Note that only one table can be written at a time and that the
table must already exist for the insert operation to
succeed

Local FileName

Name of the file to be generated and loaded.

This file is generated on the same machine where the Studio is
installed or where the Job using tMysqlOutputBulkExec is deployed. Then it is loaded
to the database specified by Host
field.

Append

Select the check box for this option to append new rows to the end
of the file.

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.

 

Built-In: You create and store the schema locally for this component
only.

 

Repository: You have already created the schema and stored it in the
Repository. You can reuse it in various projects and Job designs.

When the schema to be reused has default values that are
integers or functions, ensure that these default values are not enclosed within
quotation marks. If they are, you must remove the quotation marks manually.

You can find more details about how to
verify default values in retrieved schema in Talend Help Center (https://help.talend.com).

Advanced settings

Additional JDBC parameters

Specify additional connection properties for the DB connection you
are creating. This option is not available if you have selected the
Use an existing connection
check box in the Basic
settings
.

Note:

You can press Ctrl+Space to
access a list of predefined global variables.

Row separator

String (ex: ”
“on Unix) to distinguish rows.

Field separator

Character, string or regular expression to separate fields.

Escape char

Character of the row to be escaped

Text enclosure

Character used to enclose the text.

Create directory if does not exist

This check box is selected by default. It creates a directory to
hold the output table if required.

Custom the flush buffer size

Customize the amount of memory used to temporarily store output
data. In the Row number field,
enter the number of rows after which the memory is to be freed
again.

Action on data

On the data of the table defined, you can carry out the following
opertaions:

Insert records in table: Add new
records to the table.

Update records in table: Make
changes to existing records.

Replace records in table: Replace
existing records with new one. Ignore records
in table:
Ignore existing records or insert the new
ones.

Records contain NULL value

This check box is selected by default. It allows you to take
account of NULL value fields. If you clear the check box, the NULL
values will automatically be replaced with empty values.

Encoding

Select the encoding from the list or select Custom and define it manually. This field is
compulsory for DB data handling.

tStatCatcher Statistics

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

Enable parallel execution

Select this check box to perform high-speed data processing, by treating
multiple data flows simultaneously. Note that this feature depends on the database or
the application ability to handle multiple inserts in parallel as well as the number of
CPU affected. In the Number of parallel executions
field, either:

  • Enter the number of parallel executions desired.
  • Press Ctrl + Space and select the
    appropriate context variable from the list. For further information, see
    Talend Studio User Guide
    .
  • The Action on
    table
    field is not available with the
    parallelization function. Therefore, you must use a tCreateTable component if you
    want to create a table.
  • When parallel execution is enabled, it is not
    possible to use global variables to retrieve return values in a
    subjob.

Usage

Usage rule

This component is mainly used when no particular transformation is
required on the data to be loaded onto the database.

Inserting data in bulk in MySQL database

This scenario describes a two-component Job which carries out the same
operation as the one described for tMysqlOutputBulk Standard properties
and tMysqlBulkExec Standard Properties, although no data is
transformed.

tMysqlOutputBulkExec_1.png
  • Drop a tRowGenerator and a
    tMysqlOutputBulkExec component from
    the Palette to the design workspace.

  • Connect the components using a link such as Row > Main.

  • Set the tRowGenerator
    parameters the same way as in Inserting transformed data in MySQL database. The schema is made of four columns including: ID, First Name, Last Name, Address and City.

  • In the workspace, double-click the tMysqlOutputBulkExec to display the Component view and set the properties.

tMysqlOutputBulkExec_2.png
  • Define the database connection details in the corresponding
    fields, if necessary. Consult the recommendations detailed in Inserting transformed data in MySQL database, concerning the conservation of connection details in the Repository, under the Metadata node. In the component view, select Repository in the Property Type field and then select the appropriate connection
    in the adjacent field. The following fields will be filled in automatically.

For further information, see
Talend Studio

User Guide.

  • In the Action on table
    field, select the None option as you want
    to insert the data into a table which already exists.

  • In the Table field, enter
    the name of the table you want to populate, the name being clients in this example.

  • In the Local filename
    field, indicate the access path and the name of the file which contains the data
    to be added to the table. In this example, the file is clients.txt.

  • Click on the Advanced
    settings
    tab to define the component’s advanced parameters.

tMysqlOutputBulkExec_3.png
  • In the Action on data
    list, select the Insert records in table
    to insert the new data in the table.

  • Press F6 to run the
    Job.

The result should be pretty much the same as in Inserting transformed data in MySQL database, but the data might differ as these are regenerated randomly everytime the Job is
run.
