    Dataphin:Configure the KingbaseES input component

    Last Updated:May 28, 2025

    The KingbaseES input component reads data from a KingbaseES data source. When you need to synchronize data from a KingbaseES data source to other data sources, you must first configure the KingbaseES input component to read the data source, and then configure the target data source for data synchronization. This topic describes how to configure the KingbaseES input component.

    Prerequisites

    Procedure

    1. In the top navigation bar of the Dataphin homepage, choose Development > Data Integration.

    2. In the top navigation bar of the Integration page, select a project (In Dev-Prod mode, you need to select an environment).

    3. In the left-side navigation pane, click Batch Pipeline. In the Batch Pipeline list, click the offline pipeline that you want to develop to open its configuration page.

    4. Click Component Library in the upper-right corner of the page to open the Component Library panel.

    5. In the left-side navigation pane of the Component Library panel, select Inputs. Find the KingbaseES component in the input component list on the right and drag it to the canvas.

    6. Click the image icon in the KingbaseES input component card to open the KingbaseES Input Configuration dialog box.

    7. In the KingbaseES Input Configuration dialog box, configure the parameters.

      Parameter

      Description

      Step Name

      The name of the KingbaseES input component. Dataphin automatically generates a step name, which you can modify based on your business scenario. The name must meet the following requirements:

      • It can contain only Chinese characters, letters, underscores (_), and digits.

      • It cannot exceed 64 characters.

      Datasource

      The data source dropdown list displays all KingbaseES data sources in the current Dataphin instance, including those for which you have the read-through permission and those for which you do not. Click the image icon to copy the current data source name.

      • For data sources for which you do not have the read-through permission, you can request the read permission for the corresponding data source. For more information about how to request the read permission for a data source, see Request, renew, and return data source permissions.

      • If you do not have a KingbaseES data source, click Create Data Source to create one. For more information, see Create a KingbaseES data source.

      Source Table Quantity

      Select the source table quantity. The source table quantity includes Single Table and Multiple Tables:

      • Single Table: This option is applicable to scenarios where business data from one table is synchronized to one target table.

      • Multiple Tables: This option is applicable to scenarios where business data from multiple tables is synchronized to the same target table. When data from multiple tables is written to the same data table, the union algorithm is used.

      Table

      Select the source table:

      • If you select Single Table for Source Table Quantity, you can enter a keyword to search for a table or enter the exact table name and click Exact Match. After you select a table, the system automatically checks the table status. Click the image icon to copy the name of the selected table.

      • If you select Multiple Tables for Source Table Quantity, perform the following operations to add tables.

        1. In the input box, enter a table expression to filter tables with the same structure.

          The system supports enumeration, regular expression-like patterns, and a combination of both. For example, table_[001-100];table_102.

        2. Click Exact Match. In the Confirm Matching Details dialog box, view the list of matched tables.

        3. Click OK.

      Shard Key (optional)

      The system shards data based on the configured shard key field. This parameter can be used with the concurrency configuration to implement concurrent reading. You can use a column in the source data table as the shard key. We recommend that you use the primary key or a column with an index as the shard key to ensure transmission performance.

      Important

      When you select a date and time type, the system identifies the maximum and minimum values, and performs forced sharding based on the total time range and concurrency. Even distribution is not guaranteed.

      Batch Read Count (optional)

      The number of data records to read at a time. When reading data from the source database, you can configure a specific batch read count (such as 1,024 records) instead of reading records one by one. This reduces the number of interactions with the data source, improves I/O efficiency, and reduces network latency.

      Input Filter (optional)

      Enter the filter information for the input fields, for example, ds=${bizdate}. Input Filter is applicable to the following two scenarios:

      • Fixed part of data.

      • Parameter filtering.

      Output Fields

      The Output Fields section displays all fields in the selected table that match the filter conditions. You can perform the following operations:

      • Field Management: If you do not need to output certain fields to downstream components, you can delete these fields:

        • Delete a single field: If you need to delete a small number of fields, you can click the sgaga icon in the Operation column to delete unnecessary fields.

        • Delete multiple fields in batches: If you need to delete many fields, you can click Field Management. In the Field Management dialog box, select multiple fields, click the image left arrow icon to move the selected input fields to the unselected input fields, and then click OK to complete the batch deletion of fields.

      • Batch Add: Click Batch Add to configure fields in batches in JSON format, TEXT format, or DDL format.

        Note

        After you complete batch addition and click OK, the configured field information will be overwritten.

        • Configure fields in batches in JSON format, for example:

          // Example:
  [{
     "index": 1,
     "name": "id",
     "type": "int(10)",
     "mapType": "Long",
     "comment": "comment1"
   },
   {
     "index": 2,
     "name": "user_name",
     "type": "varchar(255)",
     "mapType": "String",
     "comment": "comment2"
 }]
          Note

          index indicates the column number of the specified object, name indicates the field name after import, and type indicates the field type after import. For example, "index":3,"name":"user_id","type":"String" indicates that the fourth column in the file is imported with the field name user_id and the field type String.

        • Configure fields in batches in TEXT format, for example:

          // Example:
1,id,int(10),Long,comment1
2,user_name,varchar(255),Long,comment2

          • The row delimiter is used to separate the information of each field. The default is a line feed (\n). Line feed (\n), semicolon (;), and period (.) are supported.

          • The column delimiter is used to separate the field name and field type. The default is a comma (,). The system supports ','. The field type can be omitted. The default is ','.

        • Configure fields in batches in DDL format, for example:

          CREATE TABLE tablename (
	user_id serial,
	username VARCHAR(50),
	password VARCHAR(50),
	email VARCHAR (255),
	created_on TIMESTAMP,
);

      • Create an output field: Click +Create Output Field, and fill in Column, Type, and Remarks, and select Mapping Type as prompted. After you complete the configuration of the current row, click the image icon to save it.

    8. Click OK to complete the property configuration of the KingbaseES Input Component.
