S3File

S3 file sink connector

Description

Output data to aws s3 file system.

Tips: We made some trade-offs in order to support more file types, so we used the HDFS protocol for internal access to S3 and this connector need some hadoop dependencies. It's only support hadoop version 2.6.5+. Use this connector, you need add hadoop-aws.jar and hadoop-client.jar to the plugin directory.

Key features

• exactly-once

By default, we use 2PC commit to ensure exactly-once

• schema projection
• file format
  • text
  • csv
  • parquet
  • orc
  • json

path [string]

The target dir path is required.

bucket [string]

The bucket address of s3 file system, for example: s3n://seatunnel-test, if you use s3a protocol, this parameter should be s3a://seatunnel-test.

access_key [string]

The access key of s3 file system. If this parameter is not set, please confirm that the credential provider chain can be authenticated correctly, you could check this hadoop-aws

access_secret [string]

The access secret of s3 file system. If this parameter is not set, please confirm that the credential provider chain can be authenticated correctly, you could check this hadoop-aws

hadoop_s3_properties [map]

If you need to add a other option, you could add it here and refer to this link

     hadoop_s3_properties {
       "fs.s3a.aws.credentials.provider" = "org.apache.hadoop.fs.s3a.SimpleAWSCredentialsProvider"
      }

file_name_expression [string]

file_name_expression describes the file expression which will be created into the path. We can add the variable ${now} or ${uuid} in the file_name_expression, like test_${uuid}_${now}, ${now} represents the current time, and its format can be defined by specifying the option filename_time_format.

Please note that, If is_enable_transaction is true, we will auto add ${transactionId}_ in the head of the file.

file_format [string]

We supported as the following file types:

text csv parquet orc json

Please note that, The final file name will end with the file_format's suffix, the suffix of the text file is txt.

filename_time_format [string]

When the format in the file_name_expression parameter is xxxx-${now} , filename_time_format can specify the time format of the path, and the default value is yyyy.MM.dd . The commonly used time formats are listed as follows:

Symbol	Description
y	Year
M	Month
d	Day of month
H	Hour in day (0-23)
m	Minute in hour
s	Second in minute

See Java SimpleDateFormat for detailed time format syntax.

field_delimiter [string]

The separator between columns in a row of data. Only needed by text and csv file format.

row_delimiter [string]

The separator between rows in a file. Only needed by text and csv file format.

partition_by [array]

Partition data based on selected fields

partition_dir_expression [string]

If the partition_by is specified, we will generate the corresponding partition directory based on the partition information, and the final file will be placed in the partition directory.

Default partition_dir_expression is ${k0}=${v0}/${k1}=${v1}/.../${kn}=${vn}/. k0 is the first partition field and v0 is the value of the first partition field.

is_partition_field_write_in_file [boolean]

If is_partition_field_write_in_file is true, the partition field and the value of it will be written into data file.

For example, if you want to write a Hive Data File, Its value should be false.

sink_columns [array]

Which columns need be written to file, default value is all the columns get from Transform or Source. The order of the fields determines the order in which the file is actually written.

is_enable_transaction [boolean]

If is_enable_transaction is true, we will ensure that data will not be lost or duplicated when it is written to the target directory.

Please note that, If is_enable_transaction is true, we will auto add ${transactionId}_ in the head of the file.

Only support true now.

batch_size [int]

The maximum number of rows in a file. For SeaTunnel Engine, the number of lines in the file is determined by batch_size and checkpoint.interval jointly decide. If the value of checkpoint.interval is large enough, sink writer will write rows in a file until the rows in the file larger than batch_size. If checkpoint.interval is small, the sink writer will create a new file when a new checkpoint trigger.

common options

Sink plugin common parameters, please refer to Sink Common Options for details.

Example

For text file format

  S3File {
    access_key = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
    secret_key = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
    bucket = "s3a://seatunnel-test"
    tmp_path = "/tmp/seatunnel"
    path="/seatunnel/text"
    row_delimiter="\n"
    partition_dir_expression="${k0}=${v0}"
    is_partition_field_write_in_file=true
    file_name_expression="${transactionId}_${now}"
    file_format="text"
    filename_time_format="yyyy.MM.dd"

    access_key = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
    secret_key = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

  S3File {
    access_key = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
