How to shift a column header names into row values

[Anonymous]

Hi,
I have a scenario to be processed as below:
1. An Input "|"delimited file to be processed which is of the below mentioned schema (with sample data):
CARDID|CARDNAME|SLOTNAME|SHELFNAME|NODENAME|LOCATIONNAME|NODETYPE
661813|DD|Slot 4|Shelf 1|T-T080176 _C01_R01|T-T080176|SDH
661821|DD|Slot 4|Shelf 1|T-T080178_C01_R01|T-T080178|PDH
661878|UU|Slot 1|Shelf 1|T-T090002_C01_R01|T-T090002|SDH
661900|DU|Slot 3|Shelf 1|T-T050049_C01_R01|T-T050049|PDH
661914|UU|Slot 1|Shelf 1|T-T050065_C01_R01|T-T050065|MSC
3. The expected is to arrive at two output files where the first one is straight mapping as shown below(OUTPUT1):
CARDID|CARDNAME|SLOTNAME|SHELFNAME|LOCATIONNAME
661813|DD|Slot 4|Shelf 1|T-T080176
661821|DD|Slot 4|Shelf 1|T-T080178
661878|UU|Slot 1|Shelf 1|T-T090002
661900|DU|Slot 3|Shelf 1|T-T050049
661914|UU|Slot 1|Shelf 1|T-T050065

The second file should be in the below mentioned format(OUTPUT2):
CARDID|UDA_NAME|UDA_VALUE
661813|NODENAME|T-T080176 _C01_R01
661821|NODENAME|T-T080178_C01_R01
661878|NODENAME|T-T090002_C01_R01
661900|NODENAME|T-T050049_C01_R01
661914|NODENAME|T-T050065_C01_R01
661813|NODETYPE|SDH
661821|NODETYPE|PDH
661878|NODETYPE|SDH
661900|NODETYPE|PDH
661914|NODETYPE|MSC
In the above output you can see that the Input Header columns became the row values. I understand that this shall be achieved through using multiple tFileInputDelimited and tmap components for each of the column headers and atlast merging all the files to form a single output.
The problem is there could be more number of columns which has to be processed in this fashion. So I am seeking help to achieve this in an easy manner.

Hi,
The component tMap can achieve your goal.
The workflow should be: tfileinputdelimited-->tMap-->tfileoutputdelimited(output1)
-->tfileoutoutdelimited2(output2)
-->tfileoutoutdelimited3(output2)
Please see my screenshots for detail.

Hi Sabrina,
Thanks for providing the solution. I tried the same and got three output files in total,
tfileoutputdelimited(output1)
tfileoutoutdelimited2(output2)
tfileoutoutdelimited3(output3)
whereas I am expecting only two files
Is there any simple way to merge both the Output 2 & 3 files.

Hi Sabrina,
I got the solution. I used tUnite to merge both the Output2 &3 files to make it as a single file.
Thanks for your support.

Hi,

tfileoutputdelimited(output1)
tfileoutoutdelimited2(output2)
tfileoutoutdelimited3(output3)

Actually, you should use a same output file path when setting tfileoutoutdelimited2 and tfileoutoutdelimited3.

The workflow should be: tfileinputdelimited-->tMap-->tfileoutputdelimited(output1)
-->tfileoutoutdelimited2(output2)
-->tfileoutoutdelimited3(output2)

Please check out the option "Append" both in tFileoutputdelimited2 and tFileoutoutdelimited3 component.
