To run a job that has been exported by a colleague to run outside Talend Studio, you need to extract the content of the archive and run the batch file or the shell script. The archive file contains all the files and libraries required to run the job independently from Talend Studio on any platform that supports Java. The archive file also contains two executable files: a batch file (.bat) for Windows platforms and a shell script (.sh) for Linux platforms. You need to run the appropriate file for your platform by double-clicking on it or using a command line tool. This will launch the job and display its output in a console window.

You do not need to extract the contents of the archive and run both the batch file and shell script, install the job and start the resulting service, or extract the files from the archive and run the JAR file. These methods are not correct or available in Talend Studio and may cause errors or unexpected results. References: Talend Open Studio: Open-source ETL and Free Data Integration | Talend, [Build Job - 7.3]

To debug a job using Trace Debug mode and pause the execution when it encounters any records for customers residing in the state of California, you need to right-click on the trace on the output of the input component and select Show Breakpoint Setup option. Trace Debug mode is a feature that allows you to trace each row processed by your job components and see the values of each column in each row. You can access this mode by opening the Debug Run tab of the Run view and clicking on Trace Debug button. A trace is a link that shows the data flow between components in your job design workspace.

The Show Breakpoint Setup option allows you to set a breakpoint on a trace based on a condition or an expression. A breakpoint is a point where the execution of your job pauses and waits for your action. You can use breakpoints to inspect your data or debug your logic at specific points of your job execution. You can access this option by right-clicking on a trace on your job design workspace and selecting Show Breakpoint Setup. This will open a dialog box where you can enter a condition or an expression for your breakpoint.

For example, if you want to pause your job execution when it encounters any records for customers residing in the state of California, you can enter this condition for your breakpoint:

row1.state == “CA”

This will make your job stop at the trace where this condition is met and show you the values of each column for that row.

You do not need to add a breakpoint in Advanced settings tab of Run view, open Debug Run tab of Run view and click Trace Debug button, or right-click on trace on output of input component and select Add Breakpoint option. These options are not used to set breakpoints based on conditions or expressions. The Advanced settings tab of Run view is used to configure advanced settings for your job execution, such as JVM arguments, statistics parameters, implicit context load parameters, etc. The Debug Run tab of Runview is used to access Trace Debug mode, but not to set breakpoints. The Add Breakpoint option is used to add a simple breakpoint on a trace without any condition or expression. References: Talend Open Studio: Open-source ETL and Free Data Integration | Talend, [Trace Debug mode - 7.3], [Breakpoints - 7.3]

The methods that you can use to specify the schema in a tFileInputDelimited component are:

• Add the component then drag and drop a generic schema metadata item onto the component. This method allows you to reuse an existing schema that is stored in the Metadata section of the Repository. A generic schema is a schema that is not associated with any specific file format or connection type. You can create a generic schema by right-clicking on Generic Schema in the Repository and selecting Create Generic Schema.
• Drag a File delimited metadata item from the Repository onto the design workspace. This method allows you to create a new tFileInputDelimited component with a predefined schema that is based on a specific delimited file. A File delimited metadata item is a metadata item that contains information about a delimited file, such as its path, format, encoding, field separator, etc. You can create a File delimited metadata item by right-clicking on File delimited in the Repository and selecting Create File delimited.
• Add the component, open the Component view, select the Built-in schema type, then click the Edit schema button. This method allows you to create a custom schema for the tFileInputDelimited component within the Component view. A built-in schema is a schema that is defined locally for a specific component and cannot be reused by other components. You can edit a built-in schema by clicking on the Edit schema button in the Basic settings tab of the Component view.

Contexts are a way of defining different sets of values for variables that are used in a job. For example, you can define a context for testing and another context for production, with different values for the database connection parameters, file paths, etc. You can then switch between the contexts easily without modifying the job design. Contexts are not automatically defined by the types of components used in the job, nor by Talend Studio. You must define the contexts yourself in the Contexts tab of your job. You can also create context groups in the Repository and reuse them in multiple jobs. References: Talend Data Integration — Software to Connect, Access, and Transform Data | Talend,

The tMap component allows you to configure multiple outputs for your data transformation and mapping. You can apply filter expressions on each output to filter out the rows that meet certain criteria. For example, if you want to send only the rows that have CA as the state value to one output, you can use CA.equals(row1.state) as the filter expression for that output. The filter expression evaluates to true or false for each row, and only the rows that evaluate to true are sent to the output. In this case, only Thomas Coolidge and Andrew Taylor have CA as their state value, so they are sent to the CA output. Similarly, only Calvin Adams has NY as his state value, so he is sent to the NY output. The Rejects output has no filter expression, so it receives all the rows from the input by default. However, since there is a conflict between the CA and NY outputs and the Rejects output, only the rows that are not sent to any other output are sent to the Rejects output. In this case, there are no such rows, so the Rejects output receives no data. References: Talend Open Studio: Open-source ETL and Free Data Integration | Talend,

The tMap component allows you to configure multiple input sources for your data transformation and mapping. The main input source is always placed on top of the tMap component and cannot be moved within it. The main input source provides the data flow that drives the processing of the tMap component. The lookup tables are placed below the main input source and can be reordered by using the up and down arrows on the toolbar. The order in which the lookup tables appear on the tMap component does not affect the functionality of the joins, as long as they are configured correctly with the appropriate join conditions and expressions. References: Talend Open Studio: Open-source ETL and Free Data Integration | Talend, [tMap properties - 7.3]

A Joblet is a reusable piece of a job that can be used in multiple jobs as a single component. A tRunJob component is a component that allows you to call another job as a subjob within a parent job. When comparing a Joblet to a tRunJob component, these statements are true:

• A Joblet uses the same context variables of the job in which it is used, unlike a tRunJob component. A context variable is a variable that can store a value that can be changed at runtime or between different contexts. A Joblet inherits the context variables from the job that contains it and does not have its own context variables. A tRunJob component can pass context variables from the parent job to the child job, or use a specific context for the child job.
• Building a Joblet typically requires the use of generic input and trigger components. A Joblet can have one or more input and output flows that connect it with other components in a job. To create these flows, you need to use generic input and trigger components, such as tJobletInput, tJobletOutput, tJobletTriggerInput, and tJobletTriggerOutput. These components allow you to define schemas and triggers for your Joblet without depending on specific components.
• The nested job called by a tRunJob component cannot use the same context variables of the job in which it is used. A nested job is a job that is called by another job using a tRunJob component. A nested job can have its own context variables or receive context variables from its parent job, but it cannot use thesame context variables as its parent job. This means that if you have two context variables with the same name in both jobs, they will be treated as separate variables and will not share values.

These statements are false when comparing a Joblet to a tRunJob component:

• The performance of tRunJob component is better than running an equivalent job using a Joblet. The performance of a Joblet is better than running an equivalent job using a tRunJob component. This is because a Joblet is integrated into the main code of the job and does not require launching another JVM process or loading another metadata object like a tRunJob component does. References: Talend Open Studio: Open-source ETL and Free Data Integration | Talend, [Joblets - 7.3], [tRunJob properties - 7.3], [Contexts - 7.3]

To trigger auto-completion in Talend Studio, you can use the keystrokes Ctrl + Space. This will display a list of possible suggestions based on what you have typed so far. For example, if you type context. and press Ctrl + Space, you will see a list of all the context variables you have defined. You can then select the one you want from the list or continue typing to narrow down the choices. Auto-completion can help you avoid typing errors and save time when configuring components or writing expressions. References: Talend Open Studio: Open-source ETL and Free Data Integration | Talend
