Query output into ODI variable

Hi,
I want to take the output (multiple rows and multiple columns) into an ODI variable of Text type.
I have created the variable and put the query and set the variable type as Text type. But when I send the value of this variable to other variable, it comes as blank.
Can anyone tell me how can I do that
Thanks in advance

Hello Neha,
Though i have been working with APDs since some time. But havent actually been involved in designing one. But you could find many documents for the APD on web. And as far as i know, you will need a program to save file from APD.
I have a document which explains how you can use APD in process chain. can forward you the same if you want.
I am sorry as i wasnt of much help for you, as i havent worked on similar requirement before, but this thing just striked in my mind.

Linux file name into ODI variable

Hello All,
I have a situation where we have files in one directory in linux ,I want to import the file name into a ODI variable.
Ex : A_B_C_2014_01_20.zip (inside this zip file are the flat files with data) is the file name in /u02/source_files location , i want this into a ODI variable and once the data loading is complete ,i want to log it saying
A_B_C_2014_01_20.zip complete
A_B_C_2014_01_21.zip complete.
So my other shell script will look for the complete flag and copy the next file into the ODI pick up location.In this case I need to pick up A_B_C_2014_01_22.zip and start the data loading.
How do i implement this functionality in ODI. Please let me know.

Issue was due to a syntax error. Case closed.
Thanks!

Query output into cfmail

I need to send an individual email to about 100 names fetched
from an Access 2003 database. I am fetching the distinct emails
from the database and getting each Project owned by each distinct
email address.
I created the correct output on a test web page where the
query will list every distinct email address with each email
address having their own Project Title listing. Now the question is
how do I use my output to send an individual email to each of the
distinct email addresses I got in my query??
For example someone with the email Address of
[email protected] would get one email with his Project Title
listings that could be 3 or 4 titles. The next distinct email
address of [email protected] will get his own email with his
Project title listings.
Here is my attempt but the #userEmail# has everyones email
address.
<cfoutput query = "theQuery" group = "userEmail">
<cfmail to: #userEmail# subject: Project Listing
<cfoutput>Project Listing:
#ProjectTitle#</cfoutput>
<cfmail>
</cfoutput>
Please help.

Jazzy has the correct answer. And if your project listings
reside in seperate tables, you need to run a seperate query within
the loop BUT outside of the cfmail in order to retrieve those. So
that would then be...
<cfquery name="rs_read" datasource="xxx" >
SELECT *
FROM #session.sometable#
WHERE whateverid = '#variables.whateverid#';
</cfquery>
<cfloop index="loopcount" from="1"
to='#rs_read.RecordCount#' step="1">
<cfquery name="rs_projects" datasource="xxx" >
SELECT projects
FROM #session.sometable#
WHERE email = '#rs_read.email#';
</cfquery>
<cfset variables.proj = ''>
<cfoutput query="rs_projects">
<cfset variables.proj = variables.proj & ' ' &
rs_projects.projects>
</cfoutput>
<cfmail from="[email protected]" to="#rs_read.email#"
subject="#rs_projects.whatever#">
bla bla #rs_read.anyvariable#
PROJECTS: #variables.proj#
</cfmail>
</cfloop>
REMEMBER: You can not nest outputs in outputs, that's why you
can not run the query output inside CFMAIL because CF regards
cfmail as an output routine.

How can I turn this output into a variable

I have a script to query all the servers in AD
Import-Module active*
$rtn = $null
Get-ADComputer -Filter {operatingsystem -like "*server*"} |
ForEach-Object {
$rtn = Test-Connection -CN $_.dnshostname -Count 1 -BufferSize 16 -Quiet
IF($rtn -match 'True') {write-host -ForegroundColor green $_.dnshostname}
I want to make the output a variable
Easy way would be:
$Servers = Get-ADComputer -Filter {operatingsystem -like "*server*"}
Problem is this would waist time waiting for queries against disabled/powered off machines to error out
I don't know how to use if statements in variables

Hi,
You can do something like this:
$aliveServers = @()
Get-ADComputer -Filter "OperatingSystem -like '*Server*'" | ForEach {
If (Test-Connection -ComputerName $_.Name -Count 1 -Quiet) {
$aliveServers += $_
$aliveServers | Sort Name

I need to get the file name into odi variable like ..A/ETC/file.txt
For eg.the filename file.txt should get store in a variable.
Then i want to compare the file name stored in the variable with some other value.
Please suggest.

declare the variable, then evaluate it with another variable, generally using # syntax
if the variable is date type, suggest to use : syntax, because # will treat the variable value as text value

How to use odi variable in java code.

Hi,
I am trying to calculate check sum of a file and need to capture that in a odi variable...
I wrote code like this(selected technology as java bean shell)
<@
import java.io.*;
import java.util.zip.*;
public class checksum {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(new File("c:/dummy.txt"));
CheckedInputStream cis = new CheckedInputStream(fis, new CRC32());
BufferedInputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(cis);
while (in.read() != -1) {
#checksum = cis.getChecksum().getValue();
}@>
But I am not able to get that value...
I tried in another way like this
<@
import java.io.*;
import java.util.zip.*;
public class checksum {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
long result;
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(new File("c:/dummy.txt"));
CheckedInputStream cis = new CheckedInputStream(fis, new CRC32());
BufferedInputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(cis);
while (in.read() != -1) {
result= cis.getChecksum().getValue();
@>
In odi variable refreshing mode i selected schema as memory_engine and wrote
select '<@=result@>' from dual;
even this wont work for me :(
Anyone pls help me in this...
Thanks in advance
Pavan

Hi Phani,
Thanks for the reply. I resolved this. The mistake is I wrote java code in a class,in main function. I removed class and main function. Now I am able to capture value into Odi variable...
I modified code as
<@
import java.io.*;
import java.util.zip.*;
long result;
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(new File("C:/dummy.txt"));
CheckedInputStream cis = new CheckedInputStream(fis, new CRC32());
BufferedInputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(cis);
while (in.read() != -1) {
result=cis.getChecksum().getValue();
@>
finally retrieving result value from dual
select '<@=result@> from dual

Mapping proc output to vars gets error extracting result into a variable of type (DBTYPE_UI2)

Hi, we run std 2012. I have a proc (sets nocount on) whose params r shown in the first block . My execute ssis sql task mapping is shown in the block following that (same order as shown, the param sizes are all -1). The variable
characteristics and initial values are shown in the 3rd block. The execute sql task command is
exec usp_fileArrivalStatus ?,?,?,?,?,? output,? output,? output
when I run the proc in ssms followed by a select on the output fields, I get stat 0, instance id -1 and file name empty string (aka tick tick aka '')
The error is:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "exec usp_fileArrivalStatus ?,?,?,?,?,? output,? ou..." failed with the following error:
"An error occurred while extracting the result into a variable of type (DBTYPE_UI2)".
Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
Does anybody know what is wrong?
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[usp_fileArrivalStatus] @NewFilePattern varchar(500),
@PkgName varchar (257),
@appid int,
@MsgHistCreateDate date,
@messageFriendlyName varchar(500),
@arrivalStatus int output,
@instanceId bigint output,
@fileName varchar(500) output
VariableName Direction DataType ParamName
User::TranFilePattern Input VARCHAR 0
System::PackageName Input VARCHAR 1
User::AppID Input SHORT 2
User::todaysDate Input DATE 3
User::TranFileArriveStatus OUTPUT SHORT 5
User::TranFileInstanceId OUTPUT LARGE_INTEGER 6
User::TranFileName OUTPUT VARCHAR 7
User::TranFileFriendlyName Input VARCHAR 4
User::TranFilePattern,string,tranfile05-Nov-2014
User::fileDate,string,05-Nov-2014

User::todaysDate,DateTime, set by select getdate()
User::TranFileArriveStatus,int32,0
User::TranFileInstanceId,Int64,0
User::TranFileName,string
User::TranFileFriendlyName,string,Tran File

I may have gotten past this. The ui showed the first execution of that proc as the aborting component but when I looked at my error code (-1073548784), and component name in the
message sent with notification email, I noticed the second component name. It too executes that proc and still had ushort for appid in sql task mapping and long for instance id. I changed these characteristics to match what I posted and got green
on the seq container that runs both.
I think I go thru this kind of adventure every time I try to map proc output to ssis vars.

How to use ODI procedures into a ODI variable

Hi,
I have the below condition
select c1 from table where c1>#ODIVAR1 and use the output of this query in a variable to define the package flow
If output=0 package flow goes as XXX
else
flow goes as YYY.
So please suggest how to use a ODI variable to capture the procedures putput and use it in package flow in this case.
Thanks,
Naveen.

Step1 . Refresh the variable in the package, which have this query select c1 from table where c1>#ODIVAR1
Step2. Evaluate above variable (operator = , value 0 )
Step 3. If true Package flow xxx , else false yyy
Please close the thread once you get the required flow.

Get query into a variable

Hi,
See attached code.
Now, when you would run this query (and if you've turned your
CF debugger on), you would see the following in your browser under
your SQL Queries section:
select id_product, product_name
from tbl_product
where id_supplier in (1,2,3)
and is_ordered_by = 'Telephone'
In other words you can see what the query has processed
exactly.
Now, this is just a simple query that I took as an example.
What I want to do is NOT to execute the CFQUERY.
Instead, I want to store the processed part of the query i.e.
select id_product, product_name
from tbl_product
where id_supplier in (1,2,3)
and is_ordered_by = 'Telephone'
into a variable.
Is this possible?
I've tried doing the following:
<cfset querypart = "select id_product, product_name from
tbl_product where id_supplier in (" & variables.supplierIDs
& ") " & <CFIF variables.isElectronic eq 1>"and
is_ordered_by = 'Electronic'"<CFELSE>"and is_ordered_by =
'Telephone'"</CFIF>>
But it's giving me an error "<".
It's as if it can't process the <CFIF> inside the
<cfset>
Please advise.
Thanks and regards,
Yogesh Mahadnac

You could set a session variable to the results of your
query, then use that session variable as if it were a query:

<cfquery name="qProduct" datasource="db1">
select id_product, product_name
from tbl_product
where id_supplier in (#variables.supplierIDs#)
<cfif variables.isElectronic eq 1>
and is_ordered_by = 'Electronic'
<cfelse>
and is_ordered_by = 'Telephone'
</cfif>
</cfquery>

<cfset session.querypart = qProduct>

<cfoutput query="session.querypart ">
#id_product# #product_name# <br>
</cfoutput>
Of course, once you use your results, you should set your
session variable to NULL to clear the query.
<cfset session.querypart = "">
<edit> I believe that I misread your post, and thought
that you wanted to store the result of your query, not the query
itself.</edit>

How to store the File Name from a Unix Directory into a ODI variable?

Hi,
I have built a ODI package with the following steps:
1. ODI is polling for a flat file in a Unix directory. I have used OdiFileWait tool for this purpose. Here the file name is not fixed, so I am using wild character (*) to poll for file. Example: DF*ABC1*.DAT where the first wild character denotes 1 letter and the second wild character denotes 2 digits.
2. In the second step, if the file is found, I am moving the file to ODI file server path (../oracledi/demo/file). Here I have used ODIFileMove tool.
3. Then I am using an ODI Interface to Load the file data into a Oracle database table.
4. I am using a Process log table to keep the log for each step I am executing in ODI that is ODIFileWait, ODIFileMove, Interface etc. for each file. In this table a row needs to be inserted after ODIFileWait tool gets the file, with the File Name and File Date. Later on this row will be updated as the consequent steps are executed.
Here is my concern, I need to get the exact File Name of the file after ODIFileWait gets the file and I need to insert that in the Process Log table after the ODIFileWait step gets a file. So if I can store the File Name in a ODI Variable, I can insert it into the Process log table at this point. This I am not able to do.
The files are coming in a different directory (not in ODI file server path), So after getting the file it is moved to ODI file server path (../oracledi/demo/file)
The Files which I am processing are fixed length format. Also, the File name and File Date is stored in the 1st Record(Header record) of the files.
Kindly provide me suggestions to implement this in my code.
Thanks and Regards,
Anik

Look at this link -http://odiexperts.com/getting-one-or-several-unknown-files-from-a-directory
change the command to fetch the ls command and write into File and then using either java or jython break the data and fetch the file name and date and insert into log table.
(or)
you can use the os.system command and get the complete ls command into string and then process and insert it.
Let us know if you need any other help.

How to output a query results into a text file

How to output a query results into a text file instead of outputing it to the screen..
is there a way for us to write a SQL query which specifies to output the query results to a text file.
Pls let me know how to do it
Thanking u in advance
regards
Muraly

Muraly,
If you are using SQL*Plus 8.1.6 or later, you can also spool output to a file in HTML format, eg
SET MARKUP HTML ON SPOOL ON PREFORMAT OFF ENTMAP ON
SPOOL c:\temp\report.html
SELECT DEPARTMENT_NAME, CITY
FROM EMP_DETAILS_VIEW
WHERE SALARY>12000;
SPOOL OFF
SET MARKUP HTML ENTMAP OFF
In iSQL*Plus 9.0.1 (the browser-based interface to SQL*Plus) onwards, you can also send the HTML output to a new web browser window, or an html file -- much easier than the command line method.
