Adding the Data Cleaner and Data Quality Plugins to Kettle

Data Cleaner :

• http://wiki.pentaho.com/display/EAI/Kettle+Data+Profiling+with+DataCleaner

Data Quality :

• Download Easy data quality for Pentaho
• The plugin source code and downloads are hosted on Sourceforge, so the first step is to go here to download it:
• http://sourceforge.net/projects/easydq-kettle/
• After download you will have a file named EasyDQ-PDI-plugin.jar.

Copy plugin file to Pentaho:

• Copy the EasyDQ-PDI-plugin.jar file to the plugins/ directory of Pentaho Data Integration. The folder will already have a few other plugins, for instance it will look like this:

• If you prefer you can also create a subdirectory in the plugins/ folder and put the file there.

Start Pentaho Data Integration:

• Start Pentaho Data Integration by executing the spoon.bat file (or spoon.sh on *nix systems). Once the application has started, you should see the "Data Quality" category of steps when you work with transformations.
