Talend Component Kit: Component naming

Schrauber — Fri, 02 Jan 2026 14:45:42 GMT

Hi,

I develop a new Talend component with Talend Component Kit.

This works fine so far, but I have a question for the component name.

Component Kit bulds the name of the Component from the Family and the Name from the PartitionMapper.

In my case it is an component for accessing Akeneo PIM system.

So I have defined Group "Business", Family "Akeneo" and PartitionMapper Name "Input".

In Studio this results in the palette in:

--> Business --> Akeneo --> AkeneoInput

I would like to have a name like this:

--> Business --> Akeneo --> tAkeneoInput

Is this possible?

Because if I change the Familiy to "tAkeneo" this results in:

--> Business --> tAkeneo --> tAkeneoInput

Is it possible to have another name part in the component name as the family is?

Best Regards

Hello, I have almost the same issue: I am Creating a component with Name="tMonitor", Group="Business" and Family "Graduateinstitute" and in the Palette area of Talend Studio, i see Business>Graduate>GraduateinstitutetMonitor. What I want to see is Business>Graduateinstitute>tMonitor.

Furthermore, if I use this component in a job, its uniquename will become by defaut something like GraduateinstitutetMonitor_1.
An other option that would also be OK for me would be to totally get rif of the Family.

Please can someone help? I see many other components whose family name is not the prefix of the name.
I am using the latest versions of Talend and component kit.
