Task Example
Simple:
This example Randomly generates data of a specified type. If you want to learn how to declare field types, click here.
schema = {
fields {
c_map = "map<string, array<int>>"
c_map_nest = "map<string, {c_int = int, c_string = string}>"
c_array = "array<int>"
c_string = string
c_boolean = boolean
c_tinyint = tinyint
c_smallint = smallint
c_int = int
c_bigint = bigint
c_float = float
c_double = double
c_decimal = "decimal(30, 8)"
c_null = "null"
c_bytes = bytes
c_date = date
c_timestamp = timestamp
c_row = {
c_map = "map<string, map<string, string>>"
c_array = "array<int>"
c_string = string
c_boolean = boolean
c_tinyint = tinyint
c_smallint = smallint
c_int = int
c_bigint = bigint
c_float = float
c_double = double
c_decimal = "decimal(30, 8)"
c_null = "null"
c_bytes = bytes
c_date = date
c_timestamp = timestamp
}
}
}
Random Generation
16 data matching the type are randomly generated
source {
# This is a example input plugin **only for test and demonstrate the feature input plugin**
FakeSource {
row.num = 16
schema = {
fields {
c_map = "map<string, string>"
c_array = "array<int>"
c_string = string
c_boolean = boolean
c_tinyint = tinyint
c_smallint = smallint
c_int = int
c_bigint = bigint
c_float = float
c_double = double
c_decimal = "decimal(30, 8)"
c_null = "null"
c_bytes = bytes
c_date = date
c_timestamp = timestamp
}
}
plugin_output = "fake"
}
}
Customize the data content Simple:
This is a self-defining data source information, defining whether each piece of data is an add or delete modification operation, and defining what each field stores
source {
FakeSource {
schema = {
fields {
c_map = "map<string, string>"
c_array = "array<int>"
c_string = string
c_boolean = boolean
c_tinyint = tinyint
c_smallint = smallint
c_int = int
c_bigint = bigint
c_float = float
c_double = double
c_decimal = "decimal(30, 8)"
c_null = "null"
c_bytes = bytes
c_date = date
c_timestamp = timestamp
}
}
rows = [
{
kind = INSERT
fields = [{"a": "b"}, [101], "c_string", true, 117, 15987, 56387395, 7084913402530365000, 1.23, 1.23, "2924137191386439303744.39292216", null, "bWlJWmo=", "2023-04-22", "2023-04-22T23:20:58"]
}
{
kind = UPDATE_BEFORE
fields = [{"a": "c"}, [102], "c_string", true, 117, 15987, 56387395, 7084913402530365000, 1.23, 1.23, "2924137191386439303744.39292216", null, "bWlJWmo=", "2023-04-22", "2023-04-22T23:20:58"]
}
{
kind = UPDATE_AFTER
fields = [{"a": "e"}, [103], "c_string", true, 117, 15987, 56387395, 7084913402530365000, 1.23, 1.23, "2924137191386439303744.39292216", null, "bWlJWmo=", "2023-04-22", "2023-04-22T23:20:58"]
}
{
kind = DELETE
fields = [{"a": "f"}, [104], "c_string", true, 117, 15987, 56387395, 7084913402530365000, 1.23, 1.23, "2924137191386439303744.39292216", null, "bWlJWmo=", "2023-04-22", "2023-04-22T23:20:58"]
}
]
}
}
Due to the constraints of the HOCON specification, users cannot directly create byte sequence objects. FakeSource uses strings to assign
bytes
type values. In the example above, thebytes
type field is assigned"bWlJWmo="
, which is encoded from "miIZj" with base64. Hence, when assigning values tobytes
type fields, please use strings encoded with base64.
Specified Data number Simple:
This case specifies the number of data generated and the length of the generated value
FakeSource {
row.num = 10
map.size = 10
array.size = 10
bytes.length = 10
string.length = 10
schema = {
fields {
c_map = "map<string, array<int>>"
c_array = "array<int>"
c_string = string
c_boolean = boolean
c_tinyint = tinyint
c_smallint = smallint
c_int = int
c_bigint = bigint
c_float = float
c_double = double
c_decimal = "decimal(30, 8)"
c_null = "null"
c_bytes = bytes
c_date = date
c_timestamp = timestamp
c_row = {
c_map = "map<string, map<string, string>>"
c_array = "array<int>"
c_string = string
c_boolean = boolean
c_tinyint = tinyint
c_smallint = smallint
c_int = int
c_bigint = bigint
c_float = float
c_double = double
c_decimal = "decimal(30, 8)"
c_null = "null"
c_bytes = bytes
c_date = date
c_timestamp = timestamp
}
}
}
}
Template data Simple:
Randomly generated according to the specified template
Using template
FakeSource {
row.num = 5
string.fake.mode = "template"
string.template = ["tyrantlucifer", "hailin", "kris", "fanjia", "zongwen", "gaojun"]
tinyint.fake.mode = "template"
tinyint.template = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
smalling.fake.mode = "template"
smallint.template = [10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19]
