List of available actions

Some common actions need a clear contract so they are defined as API first-class citizen. For example, this is the case for wizards or health checks. Here is the list of the available actions:

Dynamic Values

Mark a method as being useful to fill potential values of a string option for a property denoted by its value. You can link a field as being completable using @Proposable(value). The resolution of the completion action is then done through the component family and value of the action. The callback doesn’t take any parameter.

  • Type: dynamic_values

  • API: @org.talend.sdk.component.api.service.completion.DynamicValues

  • Returned type: org.talend.sdk.component.api.service.completion.Values

  • Sample:

{
  "items":[
    {
      "id":"value",
      "label":"label"
    }
  ]
}

Healthcheck

This class marks an action doing a connection test

  • Type: healthcheck

  • API: @org.talend.sdk.component.api.service.healthcheck.HealthCheck

  • Returned type: org.talend.sdk.component.api.service.healthcheck.HealthCheckStatus

  • Sample:

{
  "comment":"Something went wrong",
  "status":"KO"
}

Schema

Mark an action as returning a discovered schema. Its parameter MUST be a dataset. Dataset is configuration type annotated with @DataSet. If component has multiple datasets, then dataset used as action parameter should have the same identifier as this @DiscoverSchema.

  • Type: schema

  • API: @org.talend.sdk.component.api.service.schema.DiscoverSchema

  • Returned type: org.talend.sdk.component.api.record.Schema

  • Sample:

{
  "entries":[
    {
      "comment":"The column 1",
      "name":"column1",
      "nullable":false,
      "type":"STRING"
    },
    {
      "comment":"The int column",
      "name":"column2",
      "nullable":false,
      "type":"INT"
    }
  ],
  "type":"RECORD"
}

Suggestions

Mark a method as being useful to fill potential values of a string option. You can link a field as being completable using @Suggestable(value). The resolution of the completion action is then done when the user requests it (generally by clicking on a button or entering the field depending the environment).

  • Type: suggestions

  • API: @org.talend.sdk.component.api.service.completion.Suggestions

  • Returned type: org.talend.sdk.component.api.service.completion.SuggestionValues

  • Sample:

{
  "cacheable":false,
  "items":[
    {
      "id":"value",
      "label":"label"
    }
  ]
}

  • Type: update
