How to configure

Adding a sub-generator

To assign a generator to a key:

1. Under Sub-generators, click Add Generator. On the sub-generator configuration panel, the Cell HStore field contains a sample value from the source database. You can use the previous and next icons to page through different values.

2. Under Enter a key, enter the name of a key from the column value. For example, for the column value: "pages"=>"446", "title"=>"The Iliad", "category"=>"mythology" To apply a generator to the title, you would enter title as the key. Matched HStore Values shows the result from the value in Cell HStore.

3. From the Generator Configuration dropdown list, select the generator to apply to the key value. You cannot select another composite generator.

4. Configure the selected generator. You cannot configure the selected generator to be consistent with another column.

5. To save the configuration and immediately add a generator for another key, click Save and Add Another. To save the configuration and close the add generator panel, click Save.
