Parameters:

  • GrokClassifier (dict) –

    A GrokClassifier object specifying the classifier to create.

    • Classification (string) – [REQUIRED]

      An identifier of the data format that the classifier matches, such as Twitter, JSON, Omniture logs, Amazon CloudWatch Logs, and so on.

    • Name (string) – [REQUIRED]

      The name of the new classifier.

    • GrokPattern (string) – [REQUIRED]

      The grok pattern used by this classifier.

    • CustomPatterns (string) –

      Optional custom grok patterns used by this classifier.

  • XMLClassifier (dict) –

    An XMLClassifier object specifying the classifier to create.

    • Classification (string) – [REQUIRED]

      An identifier of the data format that the classifier matches.

    • Name (string) – [REQUIRED]

      The name of the classifier.

    • RowTag (string) –

      The XML tag designating the element that contains each record in an XML document being parsed. This can’t identify a self-closing element (closed by />). An empty row element that contains only attributes can be parsed as long as it ends with a closing tag (for example, <row item_a="A" item_b="B"></row> is okay, but <row item_a="A" item_b="B" /> is not).

  • JsonClassifier (dict) –

    A JsonClassifier object specifying the classifier to create.

    • Name (string) – [REQUIRED]

      The name of the classifier.

    • JsonPath (string) – [REQUIRED]

      A JsonPath string defining the JSON data for the classifier to classify. Glue supports a subset of JsonPath, as described in Writing JsonPath Custom Classifiers.

  • CsvClassifier (dict) –

    A CsvClassifier object specifying the classifier to create.

    • Name (string) – [REQUIRED]

      The name of the classifier.

    • Delimiter (string) –

      A custom symbol to denote what separates each column entry in the row.

    • QuoteSymbol (string) –

      A custom symbol to denote what combines content into a single column value. Must be different from the column delimiter.

    • ContainsHeader (string) –

      Indicates whether the CSV file contains a header.

    • Header (list) –

      A list of strings representing column names.

      • (string) –

    • DisableValueTrimming (boolean) –

      Specifies not to trim values before identifying the type of column values. The default value is true.

    • AllowSingleColumn (boolean) –

      Enables the processing of files that contain only one column.

    • CustomDatatypeConfigured (boolean) –

      Enables the configuration of custom datatypes.

    • CustomDatatypes (list) –

      Creates a list of supported custom datatypes.

      • (string) –

Return type:

dict
