LocalFile

Local file source connector

Description

Read data from local file system.

Key features

Read all the data in a split in a pollNext call. What splits are read will be saved in snapshot.

Options

name type required default value
path string yes -
type string yes -
delimiter string no \001
parse_partition_from_path boolean no true
date_format string no yyyy-MM-dd
datetime_format string no yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss
time_format string no HH:mm:ss
schema config no -
common-options no -

path [string]

The source file path.

delimiter [string]

Field delimiter, used to tell connector how to slice and dice fields when reading text files

default \001, the same as hive's default delimiter

parse_partition_from_path [boolean]

Control whether parse the partition keys and values from file path

For example if you read a file from path file://hadoop-cluster/tmp/seatunnel/parquet/name=tyrantlucifer/age=26

Every record data from file will be added these two fields:

name age
tyrantlucifer 26

Tips: Do not define partition fields in schema option

date_format [string]

Date type format, used to tell connector how to convert string to date, supported as the following formats:

yyyy-MM-dd yyyy.MM.dd yyyy/MM/dd

default yyyy-MM-dd

datetime_format [string]

Datetime type format, used to tell connector how to convert string to datetime, supported as the following formats:

yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss yyyy.MM.dd HH:mm:ss yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm:ss yyyyMMddHHmmss

default yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss

time_format [string]

Time type format, used to tell connector how to convert string to time, supported as the following formats:

HH:mm:ss HH:mm:ss.SSS

default HH:mm:ss

type [string]

File type, supported as the following file types:

text csv parquet orc json

If you assign file type to json, you should also assign schema option to tell connector how to parse data to the row you want.

For example:

upstream data is the following:

{"code":  200, "data":  "get success", "success":  true}

You can also save multiple pieces of data in one file and split them by newline:

{"code":  200, "data":  "get success", "success":  true}
{"code":  300, "data":  "get failed", "success":  false}

you should assign schema as the following:

schema {
    fields {
        code = int
        data = string
        success = boolean
    }
}

connector will generate data as the following:

code data success
200 get success true

If you assign file type to parquet orc, schema option not required, connector can find the schema of upstream data automatically.

If you assign file type to text csv, you can choose to specify the schema information or not.

For example, upstream data is the following:


tyrantlucifer#26#male

If you do not assign data schema connector will treat the upstream data as the following:

content
tyrantlucifer#26#male

If you assign data schema, you should also assign the option delimiter too except CSV file type

you should assign schema and delimiter as the following:

delimiter = "#"
schema {
    fields {
        name = string
        age = int
        gender = string 
    }
}

connector will generate data as the following:

name age gender
tyrantlucifer 26 male

schema [config]

fields [Config]

The schema information of upstream data.

common options

Source plugin common parameters, please refer to Source Common Options for details

Example

LocalFile {
  path = "/apps/hive/demo/student"
  type = "parquet"
}

LocalFile {
  schema {
    fields {
      name = string
      age = int
    }
  }
  path = "/apps/hive/demo/student"
  type = "json"
}
