NormalizationOperation

public NormalizationOperation()

Method Detail

getOperation

public java.lang.String getOperation()

Gets the operation. Identifies what type of operation to perform. **copy** - Copies the value of the `source_field` to the `destination_field` field. If the `destination_field` already exists, then the value of the `source_field` overwrites the original value of the `destination_field`. **move** - Renames (moves) the `source_field` to the `destination_field`. If the `destination_field` already exists, then the value of the `source_field` overwrites the original value of the `destination_field`. Rename is identical to copy, except that the `source_field` is removed after the value has been copied to the `destination_field` (it is the same as a _copy_ followed by a _remove_). **merge** - Merges the value of the `source_field` with the value of the `destination_field`. The `destination_field` is converted into an array if it is not already an array, and the value of the `source_field` is appended to the array. This operation removes the `source_field` after the merge. If the `source_field` does not exist in the current document, then the `destination_field` is still converted into an array (if it is not an array already). This is ensures the type for `destination_field` is consistent across all documents. **remove** - Deletes the `source_field` field. The `destination_field` is ignored for this operation. **remove_nulls** - Removes all nested null (blank) leif values from the JSON tree. `source_field` and `destination_field` are ignored by this operation because _remove_nulls_ operates on the entire JSON tree. Typically, `remove_nulls` is invoked as the last normalization operation (if it is inoked at all, it can be time-expensive).

Returns:

the operation

getSourceField

public java.lang.String getSourceField()

Gets the sourceField. The source field for the operation.

Returns:

getDestinationField

public java.lang.String getDestinationField()

Sets the operation.

Parameters:

operation - the new operation

setSourceField

Sets the sourceField.

Parameters:

sourceField - the new sourceField

setDestinationField

public void setDestinationField(java.lang.String destinationField)

Sets the destinationField.

Parameters:

destinationField - the new destinationField
