Talend component development kit

Hi all,

I find the Talend component development kit very interesting for developing user components.

It is certainly more complicated than the old method but from what I have seen and read in the documentation, it can be very efficient.

But it seems to me that we lack examples and development tutorials .

I managed to develop a "Process component" and to deploy it in Talend studio. But things get a bit tricky with my attempt to create an input component.

In fact as part of my training work in order to gain skills. I have not found a complete example in order to create scenarios that may seem simple at first glance but which ultimately gave me a hard time.

The scenario is very "simple" and (It has no business value but it is a training task):

An input component that reads the location of a file, reads it's rows, and capitalizes it's columns values for the output stream. It's like the tFileInputDelimeted but with a with a "logic" behind

--> InputFilePath --> Capitalizes columns --> MainOutput

Do you know where I can find videos..., documentation..., blog article ... that will help me achieve my goal?

I went through the official guide but I find it insufficient (in my opinion of course) : https://talend.github.io/component-runtime/main/1.30.0/index.html

Thank you

Hi @safouane BEN MANSOUR

You've already found the main documentation resource! 😉

I encourage you to check and have a look at our official Open source Talend Component Kit (TCK) connectors repository : https://github.com/Talend/connectors-se

You'll find many connector implementations and some inspiration over there.

Best regards.

Emmanuel
