Using core ontology for ETL processes is the best way to work with Data Rules, but sometimes it is necessary to extend the core resource to support additional fields and custom data. In this case, the best practice is to create an extension of the Data Rules core resource which will contain all the necessary information about the new fields.

Extension Columns

Details below is required minimum to describe additional fields as an extension element:

  1. path - describes a path of the element;

  2. datatype - describes a type of the data ('string', ‘number', 'date’, etc.);

  3. formatdialect - an attribute of the datatype (as example "length": 16 for 'string').

Info

All extension elements are stored in the “extension” complex element.

If the structure of the extension table is defined in advance, then extension element can have extra DB description:

  1. owner - database SCHEMA

  2. table_name - database TABLE

  3. column_name - database COLUMN

...

Extension Table

When you create Data Rules extension which already has existing DB structure in market database, you have to mimic the same structure in Snowflake. Each element must be described to have the same table in Snowflake, as in below example:

Code Block
"vocabulary":{
    "newField": {
		"path": "extension/newElement",
		"datatype": "integer",
		"owner": "CUSTOMDBO",
		"table_name": "POSITION_DETAIL_EXT",
		"column_name": "NEW_ELEMENT_INT",
		"formatdialect": {
			"precision": "38",
			"scale": "0"
		}
  },
  ...
}

When DB structure of extension is not predefined, you can create extension without DB parameters definition.

DB parameters for this case will be generated automatically:

  1. owner - {in_market_client_id}DBO

  2. table_name - {RESOURCE_NAME}_EXT

  3. column_name - {ELEMENT}

Information about the owner is taken from consul config dict by “in_market_client_id”.

https://consul.dev.az.eagleinvsys.com/ui/az-dev/kv/services/svc-eds/

Example:

Code Block
"vocabulary":{
  "newElementChar": {
		"path": "extension/newElementChar",
		"datatype": "string",
		"formatdialect": {
			"length": 16
		}
  },
  ...
}

Fields for

...

Summary Extension Tables

Fields for summary extension tables can be created if core resource has summary extension table
(e.g. warehouseposition).

All these fields are provided in summary_vocabulary block.

Example when you have predefined DB structure:

Code Block
"vocabulary":{
    "newField": {
		"path": "extension/positionDetailId",
		"datatype": "integer",
		"owner": "CLIENTID",
		"table_name": "POSITION_DETAIL_EXT",
		"column_name": "POSITION_DETAIL_ID",
		"formatdialect": {
			"precision": "38",
			"scale": "0"
		}
  },
  ...
},
"summary_vocabulary":{
    "newSummaryField": {
		"path": "extension/newSummaryField",
		"datatype": "integer",
		"owner": "JANUS",
		"table_name": "POSITION_EXT",
		"column_name": "POSITION_ID",
		"formatdialect": {
			"precision": "38",
			"scale": "0"
	},
	...
}

Example

...

when you don`t have predefined DB structure:

Code Block
"vocabulary":{
    "newField": {
		"path": "extension/positionDetailId",
		"datatype": "integer",
		"formatdialect": {
			"precision": "38",
			"scale": "0"
		}
  },
  ...
},
"summary_vocabulary":{
    "newSummaryField": {
		"path": "extension/newSummaryField",
		"datatype": "integer",
		"formatdialect": {
			"precision": "38",
			"scale": "0"
	},
	...
}

DB parameters for this case will be generated automatically:

  1. owner - {in_market_client_id}DBO

  2. table_name - {RESOURCE_NAME}_EXT

  3. table_name for summary vocabulary - {RESOURCE_NAME}_EXT_SUMMARY

  4. column_name - {ELEMENT}

To generate an extension in Eagle via RTR:

To generate an extension via RTR the following RTR should be used via stream eagle_ml-2-0_default_cm_exec_eds , the example is below.

Add extension fields to “load”: “dataframe”: “vocabulary” list in resource JSON definition. (see in expand)

Rule Generation for an

...

Extension

  • A Processing rule is automatically generated when you create an extension.

  • Alter DDL for an extension will be automatically executed when you generate extension via API.

  • Cache will be stored in Redis and can be found via the following key:

eagle.ebs.resource:{in_market_cliend_id}_{resource_name}_{core_ontology version}

Example: eagle.ebs.resource_ik:CLI_WAREHOUSEPOSITION_1.0.1

  • The processing rule for the extension can be also generated via RTR for the corresponding core resource.

  • An example of the RTR to regenerate processing rule for an extension of core Data Rules warehouseposition resource:

...

Extension

This is an optional step, the new tables and fields will be created in the DB during the execution of processing rule generation:

  1. The Extension describes tables/fields that do not exist in the database

  2. Additional Summary fields are required/added

Alter DDL RTR for extension resource is the same as Alter DDL RTR for a core resource.

Load and Extract Data to/from Extension Table

Congratulations! Now extension is successfully generated and ready to use.

Load

To load data, please use the same RTR as for the Data Rules core resource.

New fields or Extensions elements are listed under the “extension” node:

Sample xml:

Code Block
...
<extension>
  <newElementNum>1</newElementNum>
  <newElementString>str</newElementString>
</extension>
...

Sample csv:

Code Block
...,extension/newElementNum,extension/newElementString,...
...,1,str,...

An example of warehouseposition extension data is attached:

Extract

To extract data use the same RTR as for the core resource

...

Note

Attention: if new DB fields are described in extension, then Alter DDL is mandatory step for Load and Extract.

...

Otherwise, there will be failures.

Example for EDS tenant warehouseposition extension:
metadata/custom/ontology/da1t1cedstest/da1t1cedstest_warehouseposition.json
metadata/custom/ontology/da1t1cedstest/da1t1cedstest_warehouseposition-models.json

Delete processing rule for extension from cache

https://apps.dev.az.eagleinvsys.com:8443/api/vault/metadata/api/doc#/processing-rule/deleteResource

resource-name = {in_market-client_id}_{resource}

resourceversion = current CORE ontology version (taken from Consul) + ontology versions from blob

Example for EDS tenant rule for warehouseposition extension:

name = DA1T1CEDSTEST_WAREHOUSEPOSITION
version = 2.0.39.1.0.1

Extensions in Oracle

End users can create an extension in Eagle via EDS UI for any core resource in case of Extract.

In case of data load to Oracle we use core Stored Procedure, so it limited at this time to below list of resources:

  • genericentity

  • genericsmf

  • warehouseposition

  • warehousetrade

  • warehousecashactivity

...

Create an extension in Eagle via EDS UI

Info

Prerequisite: custom database table exists in the Eagle Oracle database

Please open EDS Tool to create new EDS extension.

...

It can be found from Eagle pearl menu:

...

Click on the ‘New' button from the ribbon and choose 'EDS Extension’.

New EDS extension will be created off core EDS resource. Please select required resource name in the Search window that will be used for a new extension. Please continue with create button, the extension name will be added automatically.

As part of ‘Table Definition’ please ‘Add Table' (1) or click on '…’ button (2) to select a table.

In the opened window select required database schema and table (3). (If Datatable is not listed please create a table in DB)

All DB fields will be automatically identified by the tool and displayed for the end user. Click ’Select' to add fields to EDS extension (4):

The definition of the extension model is available via ‘Preview’:

Please review EDS Extension and publish your extension:

(While publishing if warnings are displayed as the (extensionFileName.json exists) try to delete the file or ignore it and publish it)

An example of warehousetrade extension:

Code Block
			<extension>
				<nmTradeDate1>2022-09-30</nmTradeDate1>
				<nmTradeDate2>2007-04-14</nmTradeDate2>
				<nmTradeNumber1>16</nmTradeNumber1>

History Mode

DB table has to be created with the same name as for composite extension + _HIST suffix, for example, if composite extension table is called ESTAR.ENTITY_EXT, the history table should be ESTAR.ENTITY_EXT_HIST

The history table should have a proper primary key:

  1. genericsmf - the PK for composite extension tables is SECURITY_ALIAS and SECURITY_ALIAS, EFFECTIVE_DATE, SRC_INTFC_INST for history extension table

  2. genericentity - the PK for composite extension table is ENTITY_ID and ENTITY_ID, EFFECTIVE_DATE for history extension table (history mode is currently not available

...

  1. )

Do not add a history table to the extension model in EDS Tool, only composite table should be there.

To load history data to extension use historyOnlyFlag=Y parameter in the data file.
