The following variables are always defined:
| Variable Name | Sample Value |
|---|---|
| Internal.Kettle.Build.Date | 2010/05/22 18:01:39 |
| Internal.Kettle.Build.Version | 2045 |
| Internal.Kettle.Version | 4.3 |
These variables are defined in a transformation:
| Variable Name | Sample Value |
|---|---|
| Internal.Transformation.Filename.Directory | D:\Kettle\samples |
| Internal.Transformation.Filename.Name | Denormaliser - 2 series of key-value pairs.ktr |
| Internal.Transformation.Name | Denormaliser - 2 series of key-value pairs sample |
| Internal.Transformation.Repository.Directory | / |
These are the internal variables that are defined in a job:
| Variable Name | Sample Value |
|---|---|
| Internal.Job.Filename.Directory | file:///home/matt/jobs |
| Internal.Job.Filename.Name | Nested jobs.kjb |
| Internal.Job.Name | Nested job test case |
| Internal.Job.Repository.Directory | / |
These variables are defined in a transformation running on a slave server, executed in clustered mode:
| Variable Name | Sample Value |
|---|---|
| Internal.Slave.Transformation.Number | 0..<cluster size-1> (0,1,2,3 or 4) |
| Internal.Cluster.Size | <cluster size> (5) |
Note: In addition to the above, there are
also System parameters, including command line arguments. These can be accessed using the
Get System Info step in a transformation.
Note: Additionally, you can specify values for variables in the Execute a
transformation dialog box. If you include the variable names in your
transformation they will appear in this dialog box.
