If a row includes a subparameter, you can specify the name, caslib, and so on in the subparameter. Otherwise, you can specify the name, caslib, and so on in the parameter.

Parameters for Reading Input Tables

Parameter

Subparameter

Description

 excludedElements

required parametertable

specifies a list of tables that contain excluded values for each element type.

Parameter Descriptions

compoundStore={compoundStore}

specifies the table names and CAS library to use for the compound store across sessions.

Long form compoundStore={caslib="string"}
Shortcut form compoundStore="string"

The compoundStore value can be one or more of the following:

caslib="string"

specifies the CAS library in which to create or find the tables. This library must be a global library.

compoundTable="string"

specifies the name of the CAS table in which to store compounds.

Default "rtengCmpd"
copies=integer

specifies the number of redundant copies to keep. A value of 0 is fastest but disables failover when a worker fails.

documentTable="string"

specifies the name of the CAS table in which to store documents.

Default "rtengDoc"
entityTable="string"

specifies the name of the CAS table in which to store entities.

Default "rtengEntity"
lockTable="string"

specifies the name of the CAS table to use for preventing access to the compound store by other sessions while an action is running. This table is used internally and should never be created by the user.

Summary: Input Tables

If a row includes a subparameter, you can specify the name, caslib, and so on in the subparameter. Otherwise, you can specify the name, caslib, and so on in the parameter.

Parameters for Reading Input Tables

Parameter

Subparameter

Description

 excludedElements

required parametertable

specifies a list of tables that contain excluded values for each element type.

Parameter Descriptions

compoundStore=list(compoundStore)

specifies the table names and CAS library to use for the compound store across sessions.

Long form compoundStore=list(caslib="string")
Shortcut form compoundStore="string"

The compoundStore value can be one or more of the following:

caslib="string"

specifies the CAS library in which to create or find the tables. This library must be a global library.

compoundTable="string"

specifies the name of the CAS table in which to store compounds.

Default "rtengCmpd"
copies=integer

specifies the number of redundant copies to keep. A value of 0 is fastest but disables failover when a worker fails.

Default 1
Minimum value 0
documentTable="string"

specifies the name of the CAS table in which to store documents.

Default "rtengDoc"
entityTable="string"

specifies the name of the CAS table in which to store entities.

Default "rtengEntity"
lockTable="string"

specifies the name of the CAS table to use for preventing access to the compound store by other sessions while an action is running. This table is used internally and should never be created by the user.

Default "rtengLock"
metadataTable="string"

specifies the name of the CAS table in which to store the metadata, including the element, compound, and entity definitions.

Default "rtengMeta"

excludedElements=list( list(excludedElements-1) <, list(excludedElements-2), ...>)

specifies a list of tables that contain excluded values for each element type.

The excludedElements value can be one or more of the following:

* elementType="string"

specifies the element type to exclude. It must be one of the element types that has been defined.

* table=list(castable)

specifies the name of the table that contains the element values to exclude. The table must consist of one column whose name matches the element type.

The castable value can be one or more of the following:

caslib="string"

specifies the caslib for the input table that you want to use with the action. By default, the active caslib is used. Specify a value only if you need to access a table from a different caslib.

computedOnDemand=TRUE | FALSE

when set to True, creates the computed variables when the table is loaded instead of when the action begins.

Alias compOnDemand
Default FALSE
computedVars=list( list(casinvardesc-1) <, list(casinvardesc-2), ...>)

specifies the names of the computed variables to create. Specify an expression for each variable in the computedVarsProgram parameter. If you do not specify this parameter, then all variables from computedVarsProgram are automatically included.

Alias compVars

The casinvardesc value can be one or more of the following:

format="string"

specifies the format to apply to the variable.

formattedLength=integer

specifies the length of the format field plus the length of the format precision.

label="string"

specifies the descriptive label for the variable.

* name="variable-name"

specifies the name for the variable.

nfd=integer

specifies the length of the format precision.

nfl=integer

specifies the length of the format field.

computedVarsProgram="string"

specifies an expression for each computed variable that you include in the computedVars parameter.

Alias compPgm
dataSourceOptions=list(key-1=list(any-list-or-data-type-1) <, key-2=list(any-list-or-data-type-2), ...>)

specifies data source options.

Aliases options
dataSource
importOptions=list(fileType="ANY" | "AUDIO" | "AUTO" | "BASESAS" | "CSV" | "DOCUMENT" | "DTA" | "ESP" | "EXCEL" | "FMT" | "HDAT" | "IMAGE" | "JMP" | "LASR" | "PARQUET" | "SPSS" | "VIDEO" | "XLS", fileType-specific-parameters)

specifies the settings for reading a table from a data source.

Alias import

For more information about specifying the importOptions parameter, see the common importOptions parameter (Appendix A: Common Parameters).

* name="table-name"

specifies the name of the input table.

vars=list( list(casinvardesc-1) <, list(casinvardesc-2), ...>)

specifies the variables to use in the action.

The casinvardesc value can be one or more of the following:

format="string"

specifies the format to apply to the variable.

formattedLength=integer

specifies the length of the format field plus the length of the format precision.

label="string"

specifies the descriptive label for the variable.

* name="variable-name"

specifies the name for the variable.

nfd=integer

specifies the length of the format precision.

nfl=integer

specifies the length of the format field.

where="where-expression"

specifies an expression for subsetting the input data.

whereTable=list(groupbytable)

specifies an input table that contains rows to use as a WHERE filter. If the vars parameter is not specified, then all the variable names that are common to the input table and the filtering table are used to find matching rows. If the where parameter for the input table and this parameter are specified, then this filtering table is applied first.

The groupbytable value can be one or more of the following:

casLib="string"

specifies the caslib for the filter table. By default, the active caslib is used.

dataSourceOptions=list(adls_noreq-parameters | bigquery-parameters | cas_noreq-parameters | clouddex-parameters | db2-parameters | dnfs-parameters | esp-parameters | fedsvr-parameters | gcs_noreq-parameters | hadoop-parameters | hana-parameters | impala-parameters | informix-parameters | jdbc-parameters | mongodb-parameters | mysql-parameters | odbc-parameters | oracle-parameters | path-parameters | postgres-parameters | redshift-parameters | s3-parameters | sapiq-parameters | sforce-parameters | singlestore_standard-parameters | snowflake-parameters | spark-parameters | spde-parameters | sqlserver-parameters | ss_noreq-parameters | teradata-parameters | vertica-parameters | yellowbrick-parameters)

specifies data source options.

specifies the variable names to use from the filter table.

The casinvardesc value can be one or more of the following:

format="string"

specifies the format to apply to the variable.

formattedLength=integer

specifies the length of the format field plus the length of the format precision.
