public class ConvertTextCase extends ExecutableOperator implements RecordPipelineOperator
Converts the case on a TokenizedText field. This operator can be used to perform case conversion on a tokenized text field. The operator will convert all the characters in the text to upper or lower case. The ConvertTextCase operator has three properties: input field, output field, and the case used for the conversion. The input field must be a tokenized text object. The operator will produce a tokenized text object with the cases on it's individual tokens converted which will be encoded into the output field. This object can then be used for further text processing tasks.

      DefaultConstructor. Use setInputField(String) and setOutputField(String) to set the name of the text field to convert and its output field.

    • ConvertTextCase

      public ConvertTextCase(String inputField)
      Constructor specifying the tokenized text field to convert.
      Parameters:
      inputField - name of the field to convert

    • ConvertTextCase

      public ConvertTextCase(String inputField, ConvertTextCase.Case caseFormat)
      Constructor specifying the tokenized text field to convert and the case to use.
      Parameters:

    • getInputField

      public String getInputField()
      Get the field to convert to lower or upper case.

      The name of the field to convert

    • setOutputField

      public void setOutputField(String outputField)
      Set the converted output field. If unspecified will overwrite the original input field.
      Parameters:
      outputField - name of the token output field

    • getOutputField

      public String getOutputField()
      Get the converted output field If unspecified will overwrite the original input field.

      Set the case format for the conversions. Can be set to LOWER or UPPER. Defaults to LOWER.
      Parameters:
      caseFormat - the case for the conversions

    • getCaseFormat

      public ConvertTextCase.Case getCaseFormat()
      Get the case format for the conversions.
      Returns:
      The case for the conversions

    • computeMetadata

      protected void computeMetadata(StreamingMetadataContext ctx)
      Description copied from class: StreamingOperator
      Implementations must adhere to the following contracts

      General

      Regardless of input ports/output port types, all implementations must do the following:

      1. Validation. Validation of configuration should always be performed first.
      2. Declare parallelizability.. Implementations must declare parallelizability by calling StreamingMetadataContext.parallelize(ParallelismStrategy).

      Input record ports

      Implementations with input record ports must declare the following:
      1. Required data ordering:
        2. Implementations that have data ordering requirements must declare them by calling RecordPort#setRequiredDataOrdering, otherwise data may arrive in any order.
      2. Required data distribution (only applies to parallelizable operators):
        3. Implementations that have data distribution requirements must declare them by calling RecordPort#setRequiredDataDistribution, otherwise data will arrive in an unspecified partial distribution.
      Note that if the upstream operator's output distribution/ordering is compatible with those required, we avoid a re-sort/re-distribution which is generally a very large savings from a performance standpoint. In addition, some operators may chose to query the upstream output distribution/ordering by calling RecordPort#getSourceDataDistribution and RecordPort#getSourceDataOrdering. These should be viewed as a hints to help chose a more efficient algorithm. In such cases, though, operators must still declare data ordering and data distribution requirements; otherwise there is no guarantee that data will arrive sorted/distributed as required.

      Output record ports

      Implementations with output record ports must declare the following:
      1. Type: Implementations must declare their output type by calling RecordPort#setType.
      Implementations with output record ports may declare the following:
      1. Output data ordering: Implementations that can make guarantees as to their output ordering may do so by calling RecordPort#setOutputDataOrdering
      2. Output data distribution (only applies to parallelizable operators): Implementations that can make guarantees as to their output distribution may do so by calling RecordPort#setOutputDataDistribution
      Note that both of these properties are optional; if unspecified, performance may suffer since the framework may unnecessarily re-sort/re-distributed the data.

      Input model ports

      In general, there is nothing special to declare for input model ports. Models are implicitly duplicated to all partitions when going from non-parallel to parallel operators. The case of a model going from a parallel to a non-parallel node is a special case of a "model reducer" operator. In the case of a model reducer, the downstream operator, must declare the following:
      1. Merge handler: Model reducers must declare a merge handler by calling AbstractModelPort#setMergeHandler.
      Note that MergeModel is a convenient, re-usable model reducer, parameterized with a merge-handler.

      Output model ports

      SimpleModelPort's have no associated metadata and therefore there is never any output metadata to declare. PMMLPort's, on the other hand, do have associated metadata. For all PMMLPorts, implementations must declare the following:
      1. pmmlModelSpec: Implementations must declare the PMML model spec by calling PMMLPort.setPMMLModelSpec.
      Specified by:
      computeMetadata in class StreamingOperator
      Parameters:
      ctx - the context

    • execute

      protected void execute(ExecutionContext ctx)
      Description copied from class: ExecutableOperator
      Executes the operator. Implementations should adhere to the following contracts:
      1. Following execution, all input ports must be at end-of-data.
      2. Following execution, all output ports must be at end-of-data.
      Specified by:
      execute in class ExecutableOperator
      Parameters:
      ctx - context in which to lookup physical ports bound to logical ports
