Hi,

I am using Talend Open Studio for Data Integration and I need to do transformation of Excel Input Data and could help some hints.

From an Excel Input File I have Values like this

43892_High Tower Company ABC LTD.

5281_Base Boring & Co. XY

I want to Insert / Update an MySQL Database > Table "Companies" with

----------

ID:43892
CompanyName: High Tower Company ABC LTD.

----------

ID:5281
CompanyName:Base Boring & Co. XY

Can I do that with tmap?

Thank you so much for your help.

A tMap is what the names says, a mapping tool. A tMap does not insert anything, it maps data from an input to an output.

You need for your use simply a regex function. The component tExtractRegexFields.

The component expects a field (from the incoming flow containing the data and a regex expression to split the data into regex groups. Every regex group will be automatically assigned to a field of the outgoing schema which does not exists in the incoming schema.

I have added an example job doing the work you have ask for.

The magic is the regex expression: "^([0-9]{1,})_(.*)$" which separates the incoming combined id+name into id and name separate.
