host [string]​

The target ftp host is required

port [int]​

The target ftp port is required

username [string]​

The target ftp username is required

password [string]​

The target ftp password is required

path [string]​

The target dir path is required.

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 json csv orc parquet

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:

SymbolDescription
yYear
MMonth
dDay of month
HHour in day (0-23)
mMinute in hour
sSecond in minute

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 write 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 wrote 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.

save_mode [string]​

Storage mode, currently supports overwrite. This means we will delete the old file when a new file have a same name with it.

If is_enable_transaction is true, Basically, we won't encounter the same file name. Because we will add the transaction id to file name.

For the specific meaning of each mode, see save-modes

Example​

For text file format


FtpFile {
host="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
port=21
username="username"
password="password"
path="/data/ftp"
field_delimiter="\t"
row_delimiter="\n"
partition_by=["age"]
partition_dir_expression="${k0}=${v0}"
is_partition_field_write_in_file=true
file_name_expression="${transactionId}_${now}"
file_format="text"
sink_columns=["name","age"]
filename_time_format="yyyy.MM.dd"
is_enable_transaction=true
}
