Output type

Select the type of the data to be outputted into the target file. The data is
byte arrays if you select byte.

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.

The schema of this component is read-only. You can click
Edit schema to view the schema.

When the output type is String, the read-only single column is messageContent. This column is used to provide strings to the output components
such as tJMSOutput.

When the output type is byte, the read-only single column is serializedValue. This column is used to provide byte arrays to the output
components such as tKafkaOutput.

The output schema and its read-only column can be seen by
clicking the Row > Output link to the
component that follows in the same Job. The schema is displayed in the Basic settings tab of the Component view

Row tag

Specify the tag that will wrap data and structure per row.

Custom encoding

You may encounter encoding issues when you process the stored data. In that
situation, select this check box to display the Encoding list.

Select the encoding from the list or select Custom
and define it manually. This field is compulsory for database data handling. The
supported encodings depend on the JVM that you are using. For more information, see
https://docs.oracle.com.

Root tags

Select this check box to change the separator used for numbers. By default, the thousands separator is a comma (,) and the decimal separator is a period (.).

Define the output format.

• Column: The columns retrieved
  from the input schema.

• As attribute: select check box
  for the column(s) you want to use as attribute(s) of the parent
  element in the XML output.

Use schema column name: By
default, this check box is selected for all columns so that the
column labels from the input schema are used as data wrapping tags.
If you want to use a different tag than from the input schema for
any column, clear this check box for that column and specify a tag
label between quotation marks in the Label field.

Use dynamic grouping

Select this check box if you want to dynamically group the output
columns. Click the plus button to add one ore more grouping criteria
in the Group by table.

Column: Select a column you want
to use as a wrapping element for the grouped output rows.

Attribute label: Enter an
attribute label for the group wrapping element, between quotation
marks.

Usage rule

This component is used as an intermediate step.

This component, along with the Spark Streaming component Palette it belongs to, appears
only when you are creating a Spark Streaming Job.

Note that in this documentation, unless otherwise explicitly stated, a scenario presents
only Standard Jobs, that is to say traditional
Talend
data
integration Jobs.

Spark Connection

This connection is effective on a per-Job basis.
