This Snap outputs a list of tables in a database. The Snap will connect to the database, read its metadata, and output a document for each table found in the database. The table names are output in a topological order so that tables with the fewest dependencies are output first. In other words, if table A has a foreign key reference to table B, then table B will be output before A. The ordering is intended to ease the process of replicating a group of tables from one database to another.
Expected input: [None]
Expected output: Documents with a "name" field containing the fully-qualified name of the table and a "type" field that is currently fixed to the string "TABLE". To use the table name in another Snap, like a Select or Insert, you can pass it through a ForEach Snap to another pipeline with the Select or Insert.
This Snap uses account references created on the Accounts page of SnapLogic Manager to handle access to this endpoint. See PostgreSQL Account for information on setting up this type of account.
Views:
Input
This Snap has at most one document input view.
Output
This Snap has exactly one document output view.
Error
This Snap has at most one document error view and produces zero or more documents in the view.
Settings
Label
Required.The name for the Snap. You can modify this to be more specific, especially if you have more than one of the same Snap in your pipeline.
Schema name
The database schema name. In case it is not defined, then the suggestion for the table name will retrieve all tables names of all schemas. The property is suggestible and will retrieve available database schemas during suggest values.
Example: test
Default value: [None]
Compute table graph
Computes the dependents among tables and returns each table with a list of tables it has foreign key references to. The ordering of outputted tables is from least dependent to most-dependent. Note: Turning on this option will significantly slow down the Snap; it should be left as off unless you need it.
Upgraded the PostgreSQL JDBC driver from v9.4.1207 to v42.7.2 (Java 8). This upgrade will be part of the GA release on August 14, 2024 (Stable release). As part of this upgrade, the 42.7.2 JDBC driver is bundled with the PostgreSQL Snap Pack as the default JDBC driver. Your existing PostgreSQL pipelines that use the default driver (bundled with the PostgreSQL Snap Pack) might break.
