Hi, I need to create multiple output rows based on my input, here an example:
my input is as follow:
From------------- To------------ cod
2016-01-01 | 2016-05-31 | 1
2016-06-01 | 2016-09-30 | 1
2016-10-01 | 2016-11-30 | 1
2016-01-01 | null | 2
2016-01-01 | 2016-06-30 | 3
and my ouput should be composed from two tables:
one with only unique cod
out1:
cod
1
2
3
and a second table with all rows + 1 if there are a To field populated, as follow:
out2:
From------------- To------------ cod
2016-01-01 | 2016-05-31 | 1
2016-06-01 | 2016-09-30 | 1
2016-10-01 | 2016-11-30 | 1
2016-12-01 | null | 1
2016-01-01 | null | 2
2016-01-01 | 2016-06-30 | 3
2016-07-01 | null | 3
is there a way to achieve this?
Thanks in advance
I'd load the whole dataset into HsqlDB and write 2 queries that give you the needed output.
Using tMap you can split the dataflow.
But then you'd need to check if all the unique ID-s have a null value and if they don't then those should be appended.
So purely inside talend studio it would be really complicated and likely require a couple intermediate steps as well.
I'd choose the SQL approach in this case.
Since I start with an sql table, I thought the same. Wuold be easier to recreate che ideal output via query, than having all the job done in Talend.
Asked this just to know if there was a way.
Thanks anyway
