# Ingestion Spec
A Druid ingestion spec consists of 3 components:
```json
{
"dataSchema" : {...},
"ioConfig" : {...},
"tuningConfig" : {...}
}
```
| Field | Type | Description | Required |
|-------|------|-------------|----------|
| dataSchema | JSON Object | Specifies the the schema of the incoming data. All ingestion specs can share the same dataSchema. | yes |
| ioConfig | JSON Object | Specifies where the data is coming from and where the data is going. This object will vary with the ingestion method. | yes |
| tuningConfig | JSON Object | Specifies how to tune various ingestion parameters. This object will vary with the ingestion method. | no |
# DataSchema
An example dataSchema is shown below:
```json
"dataSchema" : {
"dataSource" : "wikipedia",
"parser" : {
"type" : "string",
"parseSpec" : {
"format" : "json",
"timestampSpec" : {
"column" : "timestamp",
"format" : "auto"
},
"dimensionsSpec" : {
"dimensions": [
"page",
"language",
"user",
"unpatrolled",
"newPage",
"robot",
"anonymous",
"namespace",
"continent",
"country",
"region",
"city",
{
"type": "long",
"name": "countryNum"
},
{
"type": "float",
"name": "userLatitude"
},
{
"type": "float",
"name": "userLongitude"
}
],
"dimensionExclusions" : [],
"spatialDimensions" : []
}
}
},
"metricsSpec" : [{
"type" : "count",
"name" : "count"
}, {
"type" : "doubleSum",
"name" : "added",
"fieldName" : "added"
}, {
"type" : "doubleSum",
"name" : "deleted",
"fieldName" : "deleted"
}, {
"type" : "doubleSum",
"name" : "delta",
"fieldName" : "delta"
}],
"granularitySpec" : {
"segmentGranularity" : "DAY",
"queryGranularity" : "NONE",
"intervals" : [ "2013-08-31/2013-09-01" ]
}
}
```
| Field | Type | Description | Required |
|-------|------|-------------|----------|
| dataSource | String | The name of the ingested datasource. Datasources can be thought of as tables. | yes |
| parser | JSON Object | Specifies how ingested data can be parsed. | yes |
| metricsSpec | JSON Object array | A list of [aggregators](../querying/aggregations.html). | yes |
| granularitySpec | JSON Object | Specifies how to create segments and roll up data. | yes |
## Parser
If `type` is not included, the parser defaults to `string`. For additional data formats, please see our [extensions list](../development/extensions.html).
### String Parser
| Field | Type | Description | Required |
|-------|------|-------------|----------|
| type | String | This should say `string` in general, or `hadoopyString` when used in a Hadoop indexing job. | no |
| parseSpec | JSON Object | Specifies the format, timestamp, and dimensions of the data. | yes |
### ParseSpec
ParseSpecs serve two purposes:
- The String Parser use them to determine the format (i.e. JSON, CSV, TSV) of incoming rows.
- All Parsers use them to determine the timestamp and dimensions of incoming rows.
If `format` is not included, the parseSpec defaults to `tsv`.
#### JSON ParseSpec
Use this with the String Parser to load JSON.
| Field | Type | Description | Required |
|-------|------|-------------|----------|
| format | String | This should say `json`. | no |
| timestampSpec | JSON Object | Specifies the column and format of the timestamp. | yes |
| dimensionsSpec | JSON Object | Specifies the dimensions of the data. | yes |
| flattenSpec | JSON Object | Specifies flattening configuration for nested JSON data. See [Flattening JSON](./flatten-json.html) for more info. | no |
#### JSON Lowercase ParseSpec
<div class="note caution">
The _jsonLowercase_ parser is deprecated and may be removed in a future version of Druid.
</div>
This is a special variation of the JSON ParseSpec that lower cases all the column names in the incoming JSON data. This parseSpec is required if you are updating to Druid 0.7.x from Druid 0.6.x, are directly ingesting JSON with mixed case column names, do not have any ETL in place to lower case those column names, and would like to make queries that include the data you created using 0.6.x and 0.7.x.
| Field | Type | Description | Required |
|-------|------|-------------|----------|
| format | String | This should say `jsonLowercase`. | yes |
| timestampSpec | JSON Object | Specifies the column and format of the timestamp. | yes |
| dimensionsSpec | JSON Object | Specifies the dimensions of the data. | yes |
#### CSV ParseSpec
Use this with the String Parser to load CSV. Strings are parsed using the net.sf.opencsv library.
| Field | Type | Description | Required |
|-------|------|-------------|----------|
| format | String | This should say `csv`. | yes |
| timestampSpec | JSON Object | Specifies the column and format of the timestamp. | yes |
| dimensionsSpec | JSON Object | Specifies the dimensions of the data. | yes |
| listDelimiter | String | A custom delimiter for multi-value dimensions. | no (default == ctrl+A) |
| columns | JSON array | Specifies the columns of the data. | yes |
#### TSV / Delimited ParseSpec
Use this with the String Parser to load any delimited text that does not require special escaping. By default,
the delimiter is a tab, so this will load TSV.
| Field | Type | Description | Required |
|-------|------|-------------|----------|
| format | String | This should say `tsv`. | yes |
| timestampSpec | JSON Object | Specifies the column and format of the timestamp. | yes |
| dimensionsSpec | JSON Object | Specifies the dimensions of the data. | yes |
| delimiter | String | A custom delimiter for data values. | no (default == \t) |
| listDelimiter | String | A custom delimiter for multi-value dimensions. | no (default == ctrl+A) |
| columns | JSON String array | Specifies the columns of the data. | yes |
#### TimeAndDims ParseSpec
Use this with non-String Parsers to provide them with timestamp and dimensions information. Non-String Parsers
handle all formatting decisions on their own, without using the ParseSpec.
| Field | Type | Description | Required |
|-------|------|-------------|----------|
| format | String | This should say `timeAndDims`. | yes |
| timestampSpec | JSON Object | Specifies the column and format of the timestamp. | yes |
| dimensionsSpec | JSON Object | Specifies the dimensions of the data. | yes |
### TimestampSpec
| Field | Type | Description | Required |
|-------|------|-------------|----------|
| column | String | The column of the timestamp. | yes |
| format | String | iso, millis, posix, auto or any [Joda time](http://joda-time.sourceforge.net/apidocs/org/joda/time/format/DateTimeFormat.html) format. | no (default == 'auto' |
### DimensionsSpec
| Field | Type | Description | Required |
|-------|------|-------------|----------|
| dimensions | JSON array | A list of [dimension schema](#dimension-schema) objects or dimension names. Providing a name is equivalent to providing a String-typed dimension schema with the given name. If this is an empty array, Druid will treat all columns that are not timestamp or metric columns as String-typed dimension columns. | yes |
| dimensionExclusions | JSON String array | The names of dimensions to exclude from ingestion. | no (default == [] |
| spatialDimensions | JSON Object array | An array of [spatial dimensions](../development/geo.html) | no (default == [] |
#### Dimension Schema
A dimension schema specifies the type and name of a dimension to be ingested.
For example, the following `dimensionsSpec` section from a `dataSchema` ingests one column as Long (`countryNum`), two columns as Float (`userLatitude`, `userLongitude`), and the other columns as Strings:
```json
"dimensionsSpec" : {
"dimensions": [
"page",
"language",
"user",
"unpatrolled",
"newPage",
"robot",
"anonymous",
"namespace",
"continent",
"country",
"region",
"city",
{
"type": "long",
"name": "countryNum"
},
{
"type": "float",
"name": "userLatitude"
},
{
"type": "float",
"name": "userLongitude"
}
],
"dimensionExclusions" : [],
"spatialDimensions" : []
}
```
## GranularitySpec
The default granularity spec is `uniform`, and can be changed by setting the `type` field.
Currently, `uniform` and `arbitrary` types are supported.
### Uniform Granularity Spec
This spec is used to generated segments with uniform intervals.
| Field | Type | Description | Required |
|-------|------|-------------|----------|
| segmentGranularity | string | The granularity to create segments at. | no (default == 'DAY') |
| queryGranularity | string | The minimum granularity to be able to query results at and the granularity of the data inside the segment. E.g. a value of "minute" will mean that data is aggregated at minutely granularity. That is, if there are collisions in the tuple (minute(timestamp), dimensions), then it will aggregate values together using the aggregators instead of storing individual rows. | no (default == 'NONE') |
| rollup | boolean | rollup or not | no (default == true) |
| intervals | string | A list of intervals for the raw data being ingested. Ignored for real-time ingestion. | yes for batch, no for real-time |
### Arbitrary Granularity Spec
This spec is used to generate segments with arbitrary intervals (it tries to create evenly sized segments). This spec is not supported for real-time processing.
| Field | Type | Description | Required |
|-------|------|-------------|----------|
| queryGranularity | string | The minimum granularity to be able to query results at and the granularity of the data inside the segment. E.g. a value of "minute" will mean that data is aggregated at minutely granularity. That is, if there are collisions in the tuple (minute(timestamp), dimensions), then it will aggregate values together using the aggregators instead of storing individual rows. | no (default == 'NONE') |
| rollup | boolean | rollup or not | no (default == true) |
| intervals | string | A list of intervals for the raw data being ingested. Ignored for real-time ingestion. | yes for batch, no for real-time |
# IO Config
Stream Push Ingestion: Stream push ingestion with Tranquility does not require an IO Config.
Stream Pull Ingestion: See [Stream pull ingestion](../ingestion/stream-pull.html).
Batch Ingestion: See [Batch ingestion](../ingestion/batch-ingestion.html)
# Tuning Config

Stream Pull Ingestion: See [Stream pull ingestion](../ingestion/stream-pull.html).
Batch Ingestion: See [Batch ingestion](../ingestion/batch-ingestion.html)
# Evaluating Timestamp, Dimensions and Metrics
Druid will interpret dimensions, dimension exclusions, and metrics in the following order:
* Any column listed in the list of dimensions is treated as a dimension.
* Any column listed in the list of dimension exclusions is excluded as a dimension.
* The timestamp column and columns/fieldNames required by metrics are excluded by default.
* If a metric is also listed as a dimension, the metric must have a different name than the dimension name.
