Values Relation

A values relation contains directly specified constant values. It is a good candidate to be used for mocking data in tests.

Example

relations:
  fake_input:
    kind: values  
    schema:
      kind: inline
      fields:
        - name: int_col
          type: integer
        - name: str_col
          type: string
    records:
      - [1,"some_string"]
      - [2,"cat"]

relations:
  fake_input:
    kind: values
    columns:
      int_col: integer
      str_col: string
    records:
      - [1,"some_string"]
      - [2,"cat"]

relations:
  fake_input:
    kind: values
    columns:
      int_col: integer
      str_col: string
    records:
      - int_col: 1
        str_col: "some_string"
      - str_col: "cat"

Fields

• kind (mandatory) (type: string): values or const

• records (optional) (type: list:array) (default: empty): An optional list of records to be returned.

• columns (optional) (type: map:string): Specifies the list of column names (key) with their type (value)

• schema (optional) (type: schema): As an alternative of specifying a list of columns you can also directly specify a schema.

Output Modes

A values relation cannot be written to at all, therefore no output mode is supported.
