tELTVerticaOutput Standard properties

Action on data

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

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

• Update: Updates entries in the table.

• Delete: Deletes entries which correspond to the entry flow.

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.

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.

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.

Sync columns

Click this button to retrieve the schema from the previous component connected in the Job.

Where clauses (for UPDATE and DELETE only)

Enter a clause to filter the data to be updated or deleted during the update or delete operations.

This field is available when Update or Delete is selected from the Action on data drop-down list and Use WHERE conditions table is not selected.

Use WHERE conditions table

Select this option to invoke the Where conditions table table, where you can set filter conditions by providing values in the Column, Function, and Value fields of the Where conditions table.

This option is available when Update or Delete is selected from the Action on data drop-down list.

Where conditions table

Add rows and enter conditions as prompted to filter the data to be updated or deleted during the update or delete operation. A data record is selected for the update or delete operation only when it matches all the conditions set in this table.

This option is available when the Use WHERE conditions table option is selected.

Select this check box to gather the Job processing metadata at the Job level as well as at each component level.

Global Variables

NB_LINE: the number of rows processed. 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.

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.

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 more information about variables, see Using contexts and variables.

Usage rule

tELTVerticaOutput is used along with the tELTVerticaMap. Note that the Output link to be used with these components must correspond strictly to the syntax of the table name.
