We had a requirement today about splitting CSV which as you can see from
http://thinkinginsoftware.blogspot.com/2012/10/the-data-team-was-in-need-of.html we resolved with a tJavaFlex component but ideally I think it should be either a new component in Talend or added as a future in existing ones.
The need is to parse an $inputFile using a $delimiter, and output only the lines where the $lookupColumn has a specific $lookupValue (four parameters).
Will this make sense to be added as a feature request? Or the recommended way to go would be to build an in house component? Probably Talend should open a project to host contributions as "talend custom components library"? A google search reveals tutorials on how to build custom components but I believe an open project to host the additional components will only help.
Thanks!

tMap can certainly return matching rows only as that is one of the basic functionality of the application. On the fly schema is a different matter. Did you do a search at all and/or read the documentation?
Yes. I did the research. We have been using talend for a while. The only reason you see me as a guest is that I cannot longer login in http://www.talendforge.org When I login I land in talend.com and when I try to get back to http://www.talendforge.org I look like logged off and I can only post as guest. I know what a tmap can do but that cannot provide the solution we need. I searched on the web and this forum, I looked into the manual, I tool a look at all possibly related components before going the tJavaFlex route.
Please correct me if I am wrong but all I see about "Dynamic Schema" refers to TalendIntegartionSuite_Studio_UG.pdf which is only available with a paid subscription meaning is not open source. So you must be a user of Talend Integration Suite to read the chapter from that book called "dynamic schema" .
So given the fact that as I posted in my tutorial it is fairly simple to build a CSV Splitter or Filter do you think it makes sense to request the addition of this component (or similar) to the open source version?
Thanks!

Talend Exchange is the best place for all community users to share custom components, you can always find some useful components developed by community users.

Yes, the dynamic schema feature is only available in commercial subscription version.
Hi nestoru Great job! Thanks for your sharing to Talend community! Why don't you upload an example job to github? It help the users who want to use this component to learn the component quickly.
