The tMap component allows you to configure different types of joins between the main input and the lookup tables, such as inner join, left outer join, right outer join, etc. An inner join returns only the matching rows from both tables based on a join condition. If a row from the main input does not match any row from the lookup table, it is considered as an inner join reject. You can configure an output to collect these rejects by setting the Catch inner join reject option to true. The name of the output row that delivers the join rejects is determined by the output table you create to catch the rejects. You can name the output table as you wish, such as Rejects, Errors, etc. References: Talend Open Studio: Open-source ETL and Free Data Integration | Talend,

The design workspace in Talend Studio allows the user to graphically connect components in a Job to run a dataflow process. The design workspace is the main area where the user can design the data integration logic by dragging and dropping components from the palette and linking them with connectors. The design workspace also shows the schema of each component, which defines the structure and type of the data.

The tables on the left side of the Map Editor window represent the schemas of the input rows. The schemas define the structure and type of the data that is coming from the input components connected to the tMap component. You can drag and drop columns from the input tables to the output tables on the right side of the Map Editor window to create mappings and transformations.

The generic Input component used for in a Joblet design is the tJobletInput component. This component is used to carry data into a Joblet from another component in the job that contains the Joblet. A Joblet is a reusable piece of a job that can be used in multiple jobs as a single component. A Joblet can have one or more input and output flows that connect it with other components in a job. To create these flows, you need to use generic input and output components, such as tJobletInput, tJobletOutput, tJobletTriggerInput, and tJobletTriggerOutput. These components allow you to define schemas and triggers for your Joblet without depending on specific components.

The tJobletInput component is not used for triggering a Joblet, triggering a subjob, or carrying data into a subjob. These are different concepts and functionalities in Talend Studio. A trigger is a link that activates a subjob or a component based on a condition or an event. A subjob is a part of a job that consists of one or more components connected by data flows or triggers. A subjob can be triggered by another subjob using triggers such as OnSubjobOk, OnSubjobError, Run if, etc. A subjob can also carry data into another subjob using data flows such as main, lookup, reject, etc. References: Talend Open Studio: Open-source ETL and Free Data Integration | Talend, [tJobletInput properties - 7.3], [Joblets - 7.3], [Triggers - 7.3]

The methods that you can use to specify the schema in a tFileInputDelimited component are:

• Add the component then drag and drop a generic schema metadata item onto the component. This method allows you to reuse an existing schema that is stored in the Metadata section of the Repository. A generic schema is a schema that is not associated with any specific file format or connection type. You can create a generic schema by right-clicking on Generic Schema in the Repository and selecting Create Generic Schema.
• Drag a File delimited metadata item from the Repository onto the design workspace. This method allows you to create a new tFileInputDelimited component with a predefined schema that is based on a specific delimited file. A File delimited metadata item is a metadata item that contains information about a delimited file, such as its path, format, encoding, field separator, etc. You can create a File delimited metadata item by right-clicking on File delimited in the Repository and selecting Create File delimited.
• Add the component, open the Component view, select the Built-in schema type, then click the Edit schema button. This method allows you to create a custom schema for the tFileInputDelimited component within the Component view. A built-in schema is a schema that is defined locally for a specific component and cannot be reused by other components. You can edit a built-in schema by clicking on the Edit schema button in the Basic settings tab of the Component view.

You need to use the following code in a tJava component to write a nb_line variable:

int nb_line = (Integer)globalMap.get(“tFileInputDelimited_1_NB_LINE”);

This code retrieves the value of the global variable tFileInputDelimited_1_NB_LINE, which stores the number of rows processed by the tFileInputDelimited component, and assigns it to an integer variable named nb_line. You can then use this variable to print or manipulate the number of rows in your Job. Note that you need to use globalMap.get, not globalMap.put, to access the value of a global variable.

Talend Studio provides two types of SQL templates: system SQL templates and user-defined SQL templates. SQL templates are predefined SQL queries that can be used in various components that execute SQL statements, such as tDBInput, tDBRow, tDBOutput, etc. System SQL templates are provided by Talend Studio and cover common SQL operations, such as creating, dropping, or altering tables, inserting, updating, or deleting data, etc. User-defined SQL templates are created by the user and can be customized according to specific needs. User-defined SQL templates can be created by using the SQL Templates view in Talend Studio and can be organized into categories and subcategories. There are no custom SQL templates orsystem-defined SQL templates in Talend Studio. References: Talend Open Studio: Open-source ETL and Free Data Integration | Talend, [SQL Templates - 7.3]

A row is an element that carries data between two components in a Job. A row is also called a link or a connector. A row can be of different types, such as Main, Lookup, Reject, Iterate, etc. A subjob is a group of components that are connected together and executed as a single unit. A trigger is an element that controls the execution flow of a Job or a subjob. A trigger can be of different types, such as OnSubjobOk, OnComponentOk, RunIf, etc.

The tMap component allows you to perform data transformations and joins between multiple input sources and output targets. You can configure different types of joins between the main input and the lookup tables, such as inner join, left outer join, right outer join, etc. An inner join returns only the matching rows from both tables based on a join condition. If a row from the main input does not match any row from the lookup table, it is considered as an inner join reject. You can configure an output to collect these rejects by setting the Catch inner join reject option to true. If you do so, the data will flow only to that output and not to the main output. If you do not configure an output to collect the rejects, the data will be ignored and no error will be raised. References: Talend Open Studio: Open-source ETL and Free Data Integration | Talend, [tMap properties - 7.3]

To execute the compiled job outside Talend Studio, you need to right-click on the job in the Repository tree view and select Build Job option. This option allows you to export your job as an executable file that can be run independently from Talend Studio on any platform that supports Java. You can access this option by right-clicking on your job in the Repository tree view and selecting Build Job. This will open a dialog box where you can configure the build settings, such as destination folder, archive name, context, etc.

You do not need to click the Export button in the Edit Properties window, right-click on the job in the Repository and select Export items, or select Save As on the main File menu. These options are not used to execute the compiled job outside Talend Studio. The Export button in the Edit Properties window is used to export your job properties as an XML file. The Export items option is used to export your items (such as jobs, metadata, routines, etc.) as an archive file that can be imported into another project or workspace. The Save As option is used to save a copy of your job with a different name or location. References: Talend Open Studio: Open-source ETL and Free Data Integration | Talend, [Build Job - 7.3]
