Class RulesMeta

java.lang.Object
  org.pentaho.di.trans.step.BaseStepMeta
      org.pentaho.di.trans.steps.rules.RulesMeta

All Implemented Interfaces:

Cloneable, StepAttributesInterface, StepMetaInterface

public class RulesMeta
extends BaseStepMeta
implements StepMetaInterface

This Transformation Step allows a user to execute a rule set against an individual rule or a collection of rules. Additional columns can be added to the output from the rules and these (of course) can be used for routing if desired.

                             Trans trans)

Description copied from interface: StepMetaInterface

Get the executing step, needed by Trans to launch a step.

Specified by:

getStep in interface StepMetaInterface

Parameters:

stepMeta - The step info

stepDataInterface - the step data interface linked to this step. Here the step can store temporary data, database connections, etc.

copyNr - The copy nr to get

transMeta - The transformation info

trans - The launching transformation

getStepData

public StepDataInterface getStepData()

Description copied from interface: StepMetaInterface

Get a new instance of the appropriate data class. This data class implements the StepDataInterface. It basically contains the persisting data that needs to live on, even if a worker thread is terminated.

Specified by:

getStepData in interface StepMetaInterface

Returns:

The appropriate StepDataInterface class.

check

public void check(List<CheckResultInterface> remarks,
                  TransMeta transMeta,
                  StepMeta stepMeta,
                  RowMetaInterface prev,
                  String[] input,
                  String[] output,
                  RowMetaInterface info)

Description copied from interface: StepMetaInterface

Checks the settings of this step and puts the findings in a remarks List.

Specified by:

check in interface StepMetaInterface

Parameters:

remarks - The list to put the remarks in @see org.pentaho.di.core.CheckResult

stepMeta - The stepMeta to help checking

prev - The fields coming from the previous step

input - The input step names

output - The output step names

info - The fields that are used as information by the step

loadXML

public void loadXML(Node stepnode,
                    List<DatabaseMeta> databases,
                    Map<String,Counter> counters)
             throws KettleXMLException

Description copied from interface: StepMetaInterface

Load the values for this step from an XML Node

Specified by:

loadXML in interface StepMetaInterface

Parameters:

stepnode - the Node to get the info from

databases - The available list of databases to reference to

counters - Counters to reference.

Throws:

KettleXMLException - When an unexpected XML error occurred. (malformed etc.)

getXML

public String getXML()

Description copied from class: BaseStepMeta

Produces the XML string that describes this step's information.

Specified by:

Overrides:

getXML in class BaseStepMeta

Returns:

String containing the XML describing this step.

readRep

public void readRep(Repository rep,
                    ObjectId idStep,
                    List<DatabaseMeta> databases,
                    Map<String,Counter> counters)
             throws KettleException

Description copied from interface: StepMetaInterface

Read the steps information from a Kettle repository

Specified by:

readRep in interface StepMetaInterface

Parameters:

rep - The repository to read from

idStep - The step ID

databases - The databases to reference

counters - The counters to reference

Throws:

Get the fields that are emitted by this step

Specified by:

getFields in interface StepMetaInterface

Overrides:

getFields in class BaseStepMeta

Parameters:

row - The fields that are entering the step. These are changed to reflect the output metadata.

origin - The name of the step to be used as origin

info - The input rows metadata that enters the step through the specified channels in the same order as in method getInfoSteps(). The step metadata can then choose what to do with it: ignore it or not. Interesting is also that in case of database lookups, the layout of the target database table is put in info[0]

nextStep - if this is a non-null value, it's the next step in the transformation. The one who's asking, the step where the data is targetted towards.

space - TODO

Throws:

KettleStepException - when an error occurred searching for the fields.
