tSybaseOutput – Docs for ESB 7.x

tSybaseOutput

Executes the action defined on the table and/or on the data contained in the table,
based on the flow incoming from the preceding component in the job.

tSybaseOutput writes, updates, makes
changes or suppresses entries in a database.

tSybaseOutput Standard properties

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

The Standard
tSybaseOutput 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.

Use an existing connection

Select this check box and in the Component List click the relevant connection component to
reuse the connection details you already defined.

Note: When a Job contains the parent Job and the child Job, if you
need to share an existing connection between the two levels, for example, to share the
connection created by the parent Job with the child Job, you have to:

  1. In the parent level, register the database connection
    to be shared in the Basic
    settings
    view of the connection component which creates that very database
    connection.

  2. In the child level, use a dedicated connection
    component to read that registered database connection.

For an example about how to share a database connection
across Job levels, see

Talend Studio
User Guide
.

Click this icon to open a database connection wizard and
store the database connection parameters you set in the component
Basic settings view.

For more information about setting up and storing
database connection parameters, see
Talend Studio User Guide
.

DB Version

Select the version of the Sybase database to be used from the
drop-down list.

Server

Database server IP address

Port

Listening port number of DB server.

Database

Name of the database

Sybase Schema

Exact name of the Sybase schema.

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.

Table

Name of the table to be written. Note that only one table
can be written at a time

Action on table

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

Default: 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 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.

Truncate table: The table content
is deleted. You do not have the possibility to rollback the
operation.

Turn on identity insert

Select this check box to use your own sequence for the
identity value of the inserted records (instead of having the SQL Server
pick the next sequential value).

Action on data

On the data of the table defined, you can perform:

Insert: Add new entries to the
table. If duplicates are found, job stops.

Update: Make changes to existing
entries

Insert or update: Insert a new record. If
the record with the given reference already exists, an update would be made.

Update or insert: Update the record with the
given reference. If the record does not exist, a new record would be inserted.

Delete: Remove entries
corresponding to the input flow.

Warning:

It is necessary to specify at least one column
as a primary key on which the Update and Delete operations are based. You can do that by
clicking Edit Schema and
selecting the check box(es) next to the column(s) you want to
set as primary key(s). For an advanced use, click the Advanced settings view where you
can simultaneously define primary keys for the Update and Delete operations. To do that:
Select the Use field
options
check box and then in the Key in update column, select the
check boxes next to the column names you want to use as a base
for the Update operation. Do the same in the Key in delete column for the
Delete operation.

Note:

The dynamic schema feature can be used in the
following modes: Insert;
Update; Insert or update; Update or insert; Delete.

Schema and Edit schema

A schema is a row description. It defines the number of fields
(columns) to be processed and passed on to the next component. When you create a Spark
Job, avoid the reserved word line when naming the
fields.

This
component offers the advantage of the dynamic schema feature. This allows you to
retrieve unknown columns from source files or to copy batches of columns from a source
without mapping each column individually. For further information about dynamic schemas,
see
Talend Studio

User Guide.

This
dynamic schema feature is designed for the purpose of retrieving unknown columns of a
table and is recommended to be used for this purpose only; it is not recommended for the
use of creating tables.

 

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).

 

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.

Die on error

This check box is selected by default. Clear the check
box to skip the row on error and complete the process for error-free
rows. If needed, you can retrieve the rows on error via a Row > Rejects link.

Advanced settings

Use alternate
schema

Select this option to use a schema other than
the one specified by the component that establishes the database connection (that is,
the component selected from the Component list
drop-down list in Basic settings view). After
selecting this option, provide the name of the desired schema in the Schema field.

This option is available when Use an
existing connection
is selected in Basic
settings
view.

Commit every

Enter the number of rows to be completed before committing batches
of rows together into the DB. This option ensures transaction
quality (but not rollback) and, above all, better performance at
execution.

Additional Columns

This option is not offered if you create (with or without drop)
the DB table. This option allows you to call SQL functions to
perform actions on columns, which are not insert, nor update or
delete actions, or action that require particular preprocessing.

 

Name: Type in the name of the
schema column to be altered or inserted as new column

 

SQL expression: Type in the SQL
statement to be executed in order to alter or insert the relevant
column data.

 

Position: Select Before, Replace or After
following the action to be performed on the reference column.

 

Reference column: Type in a
column of reference that the tDBOutput can use to place or replace the new or
altered column.

Use field options

Select this check box to customize a request, especially when
there is double action on data.

Debug query mode

Select this check box to display each step during processing entries
in a database.

Use Batch

Select this check box to activate the batch mode for data processing.

Note:

This check box is available only when you have selected the
Insert, the Update or the Delete option in the Action on data field.

Batch Size

Specify the number of records to be processed in each batch.

This field appears only when the Use batch mode
check box is selected.

tStatCatcher Statistics

Select this check box to collect 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
    .

Note that when parallel execution is enabled, it is not possible to use global
variables to retrieve return values in a subjob.

  • 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.

Global Variables

Global Variables

NB_LINE: the number of rows processed. This is an After
variable and it returns an integer.

NB_LINE_UPDATED: the number of rows updated. This is an
After variable and it returns an integer.

NB_LINE_INSERTED: the number of rows inserted. This is an
After variable and it returns an integer.

NB_LINE_DELETED: the number of rows deleted. This is an
After variable and it returns an integer.

NB_LINE_REJECTED: the number of rows rejected. This is an
After variable and it returns an integer.

QUERY: the query statement processed. This is an After
variable and it returns a string.

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.

A Flow variable functions during the execution of a component while an After variable
functions after the execution of the component.

Usage

Usage rule

This component offers the flexibility benefit of the DB query and
covers all of the SQL queries possible.

This component must be used as an output component. It allows you
to carry out actions on a table or on the data of a table in a
Sybase database. It also allows you to create a reject flow using a
Row > Rejects link to filter
data in error. For an example of tMySqlOutput in use, see Retrieving data in error with a Reject link.

Dynamic settings

Click the [+] button to add a row in the table
and fill the Code field with a context
variable to choose your database connection dynamically from multiple
connections planned in your Job. This feature is useful when you need to
access database tables having the same data structure but in different
databases, especially when you are working in an environment where you
cannot change your Job settings, for example, when your Job has to be
deployed and executed independent of Talend Studio.

The Dynamic settings table is
available only when the Use an existing
connection
check box is selected in the Basic settings view. Once a dynamic parameter is
defined, the Component List box in the
Basic settings view becomes unusable.

For examples on using dynamic parameters, see Reading data from databases through context-based dynamic connections and Reading data from different MySQL databases using dynamically loaded connection parameters. For more information on Dynamic
settings
and context variables, see Talend Studio
User Guide.

Limitation

This component requires installation of its related jar files.
