Launching the report remotely

Procedure

  1. From the Profiling perspective, right-click the ColumnAnalysis_WithThresholds report under the Report node and select Generate Jobs > Launch a report from the contextual menu.
    This generates a launch-report Job and opens it in the Integration perspective.
    The Report filenames field points to the technical path of the report. You can modify the path.
    To set one report path by combining contexts and strings, use plus signs. To set several report paths, use commas:
    Path examples for one file:
    context.filename1+"/localpath/report.rep"
    context.filename1+context.filename2
    context.filename1+context.filename2+"/report.rep"
    Path examples for two or more files:
    context.filename1,"/report.rep"
    context.filename1,context.filename2,context.filename3
    "/localpath/report1.rep","/localpath/report2.rep"
    You can use both , and +: context.filename1+"/report.rep","/localpath/report2.rep"

    In this case, two files will be generated.

    Important: The comma and plus sign must be outside of the quotation marks.
    The Output Folder field points to the folder where to save the report file.
  2. Press F6 to execute the Job from Talend Studio for testing purposes.
    If any modifications are done in the analysis after you generate the Job from the analysis report, you must click the Refresh Dependency tab in the basic settings of tDqReportRun before you execute the Job.
  3. Connect to the Talend Administration Center Web application.
  4. In the menu tree view of the Web application, expand Conductor and click Job Conductor to display the execution task list.
    The Job Conductor page gathers the script generation, Job deployment and Job execution phases.
  5. From the toolbar on the Job Conductor page, click Add>Normal Task to clear the Execution task configuration panel.
    On this configuration panel, set the parameters required for executing the launch-report Job as the following:
    • In the Label field, type in the task name.

    • In the Project field, select the project in which the launch-report Job was created.

    • In the Branch field, select trunk as the branch of this project.

    • From the Name list, select the launch-report Job to be used.

    • In the Version list, select the Job version you want to launch; and in the Context field, select the context in which to run the Job.

    • From the Execution server list, select the server which you want to use to execute this task you are configuring.

  6. Click Save to validate the configuration of this execution task.
    The new task is displayed in the Job Conductor page under the corresponding project.
  7. From the task list, select the newly added task.
  8. On the toolbar of the Job Conductor page, click Generate.
  9. Once the status of this task reads Ready to send on the task list, select the task again and click Deploy on the toolbar.
  10. Once the status of this task reads Ready to run on the task list, select the task again and click Run on the toolbar.
    When you run the launch-report Job from Talend Administration Center Web Application, the analysis listed in the report is executed. The analysis results are saved in the report database and the report file is saved in the output folder defined in the tDqReportRun basic settings.
