TypeDetectionScheme Parameter (Connect-Couchbase Cmdlet)
Determines how the provider builds tables and columns from the buckets found in Couchbase.
Syntax
Connect-Couchbase -TypeDetectionScheme string
Data Type
cstr
Default Value
"DocType"
Remarks
A comma-separated list of the following options:
| DocType | This discovers tables by checking at each bucket and looking for different values of the "docType" field in the documents. For example, if the bucket beer-sample contains documents with "docType" = 'brewery' and "docType" = 'beer', this will generate three tables: beer-sample (containing all documents), beer-sample.brewery (containing just breweries) and beer-sample.beer (containing just beers).
Like RowScan, this will scan a sample of the documents in each flavor and determine the data type for each field. RowScanDepth determines how many documents are scanned from each flavor. |
| DocType=fieldName | Like DocType, but this scans based off of a field called "fieldName" rather than "docType". "fieldName" must match the field name in Couchbase exactly, including case. |
| Infer | This uses the N1QL INFER statement to determine what tables and columns exist. This does more flexible flavor detection than DocType. |
| RowScan | This reads a sample of documents from a bucket, and heuristically determines the data type. RowScanDepth determines how many documents are scanned. It does not do any flavor detection. |
| None | This is like RowScan, but will always return columns that have string types instead of the detected type. |
