# tExtractRegexFields properties for Apache Spark Streaming

These properties are used to configure tExtractRegexFields running in the Spark Streaming Job framework.

The Spark Streaming tExtractRegexFields component belongs to the Processing family.

This component is available in Talend Real Time Big Data Platform and Talend Data Fabric.

## Basic settings

| Prev.Comp.Column list | Select the column you need to extract data from. |
| --- | --- |
| Regex | Enter a regular expression according to the programming language you<br>are using. |
| Schema and Edit<br>Schema | A schema is a row description. It defines the number of fields<br>(columns) to be processed and passed on to the next component. When you create a Spark<br>Job, avoid the reserved word line when naming the<br>fields.<br><br>Click Edit<br>schema to make changes to the schema. If the current schema is of the Repository type, three options are available:<br><br><ul> <li> <p> <span>View schema</span>: choose this                option to view the schema only.</p> </li> <li> <p> <span>Change to built-in property</span>:                choose this option to change the schema to <span>Built-in</span> for local changes.</p> </li> <li> <p> <span>Update repository connection</span>:                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 <span>No</span> upon completion and choose this schema metadata                again in the <span>Repository Content</span>                window.</p> </li> </ul><br><br>Click Sync columns to retrieve the<br>schema from the previous component connected in the Job.<br><br>Information noteWarning:<br><br>Make sure that the output schema does not contain any column with<br>the same name as the input column to be split. Otherwise, the<br>regular expression will not work as expected. |
|  | Built-In: You create and store the schema locally for this component<br>only. |
|  | Repository: You have already created the schema and stored it in the<br>Repository. You can reuse it in various projects and Job designs. |
| Die on error | Select the check box to stop the execution of the Job when an error<br>occurs. |

## Advanced settings

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

## Usage

| **Usage rule** | This component is used as an intermediate step.<br><br>This component, along with the Spark Streaming component Palette it belongs to, appears<br>only when you are creating a Spark Streaming Job.<br><br>Note that in this documentation, unless otherwise explicitly stated, a scenario presents<br>only Standard Jobs, that is to say traditional<br>Talend<br>data<br>integration Jobs. |
| --- | --- |
| Spark Connection | In the Spark<br>Configuration tab in the Run<br>view, define the connection to a given Spark cluster for the whole Job. In<br>addition, since the Job expects its dependent jar files for execution, you must<br>specify the directory in the file system to which these jar files are<br>transferred so that Spark can access these files:<br><br><ul> <li> <div> <span>Yarn mode</span> (Yarn client or Yarn cluster):<ul> <li> <p>When using Google Dataproc, specify a bucket in the                                            <span>Google Storage staging bucket</span>                                        field in the <span>Spark configuration</span>                                        tab.</p> </li> <li> <p>When using HDInsight, specify the blob to be used for Job                                        deployment in the <span>Windows Azure Storage                                            configuration</span> area in the <span>Spark                                            configuration</span> tab.</p> </li> <li>When using Altus, specify the S3 bucket or the Azure                                    Data Lake Storage for Job deployment in the <span>Spark                                        configuration</span> tab.</li> <li>When using Qubole, add a                                        <span>tS3Configuration</span> to your Job to write                                    your actual business data in the S3 system with Qubole. Without                                        <span>tS3Configuration</span>, this business data is                                    written in the Qubole HDFS system and destroyed once you shut                                    down your cluster.</li> <li> <p>When using on-premise distributions, use the configuration component                                        corresponding to the file system your cluster is using.                                        Typically, this system is HDFS and so use <a href="https://help.qlik.com/talend/r/en-US/7.2/components/hdfs/thdfsconfiguration">https://help.talend.com/r/en-US/7.2/hdfs/thdfsconfiguration</a>.</p> </li> </ul> </div> </li> <li> <p> <span>Standalone mode</span>: use the                            configuration component corresponding to the file system your cluster is                            using, such as <span>tHDFSConfiguration</span> or <span>tS3Configuration</span>.</p> <p>If you are using Databricks without any configuration component present                            in your Job, your business data is written directly in DBFS (Databricks                            Filesystem).</p> </li> </ul><br><br>This connection is effective on a per-Job basis. |
