[resolved] tReplace : how to code to replace a null/blank values?

Tags: [date, delimited file, java, null, string, tis2.4.1, tReplace]

Do I need to change the default value in the schema (specifically the one used in tFilterColumns) to anything in particular?
Should I use the simple or advanced mode in tReplace - if the values I want to replace with are context variables?

I want to replace null values in String and Date type fields.


When I try to use tReplace for a String column, this is the error I get in the output (pic 6):

Exception in component tReplace_1

and this is the entire output: (tLogRow_2 does print out the first row of information from tFileInputDelimited, the header

When I try to use tReplace for a Date column (pic 1), I get this output:

Re: [resolved] tReplace : how to code to replace a null/blank values?

After looking at the code used in tReplace (pic 1), I tried using a tJavaRow (pic 2).  But only the two columns I designated in tJavaRow printed out with values, the rest were nulls

Re: [resolved] tReplace : how to code to replace a null/blank values?

That is normal of the tJavaRow... if you are going to use that component instead of the tReplace you need to specify all of the columns that you want to pass through it.

output_row.id = input_row.id;
output_row.name = input_row.name;
etc.

For the tReplace you need to set the Date column to a String.  The replaceAll function in java requires 2 string parameters, the first being a regex expression that finds the value you are looking to replace and the second is the value that you want to use to replace the value in the regex.  If this is the course you choose you can always parse the date from the string later if you need to use it for some other reason.

Re: [resolved] tReplace : how to code to replace a null/blank values?

I won't use tJavaRow then.

I'll convert the Date to a String, but how do I match on a null string?

Re: [resolved] tReplace : how to code to replace a null/blank values?

Ok, I changed all of the fields I want to replace to Strings, but I still don't know how to replace the Null values

error:

Re: [resolved] tReplace : how to code to replace a null/blank values?

Well, according to me the answer is simple : to replace null values you have to use a tJavaRow. And indeed you have to write the code for every field (except if you feel like modifying lightly the component's code).

Re: [resolved] tReplace : how to code to replace a null/blank values?

well, obviously this isn't turning out to be simple

the problem is that I do not want to list out the 300+ columns in tJavaRow
and I know how to do what I want in tMap, but its not as clean as I would like (because you can't designate the output schema by referencing a schema in the repository: http://www.talendforge.org/bugs/view.php?id=4923)

so, thats why I want to know how to replace null values with tReplace
and I don't see why I shouldn't be able to replace null values with tReplace, it seems kind of dumb that that functionality wouldn't be available

Re: [resolved] tReplace : how to code to replace a null/blank values?

Because tReplace uses the java "replaceAll" function, which throws a nullPointerException for null values.

I advice you to download TOS 3.0.0 and fetch the tJavaRow component from this version, because it is said to generate automatically the code for your 300+ columns. (like a "guess" button)

You can also modify your tJavaRow component. There is a parameter to change to copy all the rows from the input flow to the output flow. You then just have to write the code for the columns you want to modify.

Re: [resolved] tReplace : how to code to replace a null/blank values?

I would DL the newest TOS version, but I am using TIS, so I'll have to wait until the new version of that comes out.
But if the new tJavaRow can do all that, it sounds very promising for what I want/need to do.

Thanks!

Re: [resolved] tReplace : how to code to replace a null/blank values?

ok so I DLed TOS 3.0.0M3 to check this out, and you are totally correct, there is a "generate code" button that passes all the columns through automatically!

should be able to replace blanks and nulls in 2.4.3:  [Bugtracker, bug 5109, fixed] [tReplace] add ability to use tReplace to replace null and blank values
