tSambaGet Standard properties

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

The Standard tSambaGet component belongs to the Internet family.

The component in this framework is available in all subscription-based Talend products.

Information noteNote: This component is available only when you have installed the 8.0 R2022-02 Talend Studio Monthly update or a later one delivered by Talend. For more information, check with your administrator.

Basic settings

Property Type

Select the way the connection details will be set.

  • Built-In: The connection details will be set locally for this component. You need to specify the values for all related connection properties manually.

  • Repository: The connection details stored centrally in Repository > Metadata will be reused by this component.

    You need to click the [...] button next to it and in the pop-up Repository Content dialog box, select the connection details to be reused, and all related connection properties will be automatically filled in.

This option is not available when you select the Use an existing connection option and select a component from the Component List drop-down list.

Use an existing connection

Select this check box and in the Component List drop-down list, select the desired connection component to reuse the connection details you already defined.

Information noteNote: When a Job contains the parent Job and the child Job, do the following if you want to share an existing connection between the parent Job and the child Job (for example, to share the connection created by the parent Job with the child Job).
  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 Sharing a database connection.

Host

The IP address or hostname of the Samba host.

This field is not available if you select the Use an existing connection option.

Username and Password

Enter the authentication information required to access the Samba host.

To enter the password, click the [...] button next to the Password field to bring out the Enter a new password dialog box, enter the password in the text field, and click OK. Note that you can enter the password either in a JSON string in the pure password mode or as a Java expression in the Java mode. You can toggle between the two modes by clicking switch to Java mode or switch to pure password mode on the top of the text field.
Information noteNote:
  • The two password modes are available only when you have installed the 8.0.1-R2022-05 Talend Studio Monthly update or a later one delivered by Talend. For more information, check with your administrator.
  • If the 8.0.1-R2022-05 Talend Studio Monthly update or a later one delivered by Talend is not installed, you can enter passwords in the Java mode only.

These two fields are not available if you select the Use an existing connection option.

This field is not available if you select the Use an existing connection option.
