This article shows how to develop a simple plugin which provides a custom transformation step for Kettle 4.0. The transformation step should accept any row stream and append a string field at the end, filling it with a fixed value. The user should be able to define the name of the added field. For starters, that should be enough. Keeping the step functionality at a minimum allows me to explain how the plugin interfaces with Kettle with as little distraction as possible.

Welcome to the community home for Pentaho Data Integration Community Edition (PDI CE) also known as Kettle. Pentaho Data Integration delivers powerful Extraction, Transformation and Loading (ETL) capabilities using an innovative, metadata-driven approach. With an intuitive, graphical, drag and drop design environment, and a proven, scalable, standards-based architecture, Pentaho Data Integration is increasingly the choice for organizations over traditional, proprietary ETL or data integration tools. Community Edition is self supported open source software. An Enterprise Edition (EE) of Pentaho Data Integration including technical support, managed upgrades and enterprise features is also available. For more information about EE or for screenshots and datasheets, visit Pentaho Data Integration EE on Pentaho's corporate site.

Here you will find the pom.xml for kettle plugin and the plugin-lib.xml that is used by the maven assemble plugin. Use one of exemplary plugins to start development of your own plugin.

This page contains the latest compiled builds of Pentaho Data Integration (Kettle) community edition.  The builds are based on source code downloaded daily from SVN. Why download these snapshot builds? You want the latest version - to get the latest features in PDI. You want a more stable version - PDI point releases (e.g. 4.0.1) can include important bug fixes - see the PDI JIRA system for a full list of known issues. You need a bug fixed - You're struggling with a critical bug which has been fixed in a more recent version. To save time - You haven't got the time and/or inclination to learn about how to download PDI from SVN and build your own version.

"Community Dashboard Framework (CDF) is a project that allows you to create friendly, powerful, fully featured dashboards on top of the Pentaho BI server. Former Pentaho dashboards had several drawbacks from a developer's point of view. The developing process was awkward, it required know-how of web technologies and programming languages, and basically it was time-consuming. CDF emerged as a need for a framework that overcame all those difficulties. The final result is a powerful framework featuring the following: . It is based on Open Source technologies. . It separates logic (JavaScript) of the presentation (HTML, CSS) . It features a life cycle with components interacting with each other . It uses AJAX . It is extensible, which gives the users a high level of customization: . Advanced users can extend the library of components. . They also can insert their own snippets of JavaScript and jQuery code. CDF can be used: . As part of a Pentaho solution. This is the most common scenario. . In a standalone mode as an alternative to the Pentaho User Console . Integrated with Portlets, PHP applications, intranet portals and even desktop applications. "

"The Community Dashboard Editor (CDE) is the outcome of real-world needs: It was born to greatly simplify the creation, edition and rendering of dashboards. CDE and the technology underneath (CDF, CDA and CCC) allows to develop and deploy dashboards in the Pentaho platform in a fast and effective way."
