The last step shows the Delimited File schema generated. You can customize the schema
using the toolbar underneath the table.
Procedure
If the Delimited file which the schema is based on has been changed, use the
Guess button to generate again the schema. Note that if you
customized the schema, the Guess feature does not retain these
changes.
Modify the schemas if needed.
Information noteWarning: Avoid using any Java
reserved keyword as a schema column name.
Make sure the data type in the Type column is correctly defined.
For more information regarding Java data types,
including date pattern, see Java API Specification.
Below are the commonly used Talend data types:
Object: a generic Talend data type that allows
processing data without regard to its content, for example, a data
file not otherwise supported can be processed with a tFileInputRaw
component by specifying that it has a data type of Object.
List: a space-separated list of
primitive type elements in an XML Schema definition, defined using
the xsd:list element.
Dynamic: a data type that can be set
for a single column at the end of a schema to allow processing
fields as VARCHAR(100) columns named either as ‘Column<X>’ or,
if the input includes a header, from the column names appearing in
the header. For more information, see Dynamic schema.
Document: a data type that allows
processing an entire XML document without regarding to its content.
Click Finish. The new schema is displayed under the relevant
File Delimited connection node in the
Repository tree view.
