The split at a character mapping splits a key into an array of keys given the delimiter that separates them.
Attribute | Required | Description |
---|
from | Y | Defines the field name before mapping. |
to | Y | Defines the field name after mapping. The array will be indicated by indexes as subkeys below this one. |
precedence | N | Defines the precedence used when mapping. |
Function type | Y | Defines the Function type of the mapping. Needs to be "String functions". |
Function | Y | Defines the type of mapping. Needs to be "Split at a character". |
Delimiter | Y | Defines the delimiter to use to split the value string. |
The following example has one string in a Graphite format that needs to be split into the different keys. To do so, we apply a split mapping and a split submapping.
After that, we apply another mapper to translate these fields into the normalized format.
