It is possible to embed DataCleaner into other Java applications. This allows a simple way to add Data Quality Analysis (DQA) and Data Profiling functionality as an addition to the applications that you are building.
The simplest way to embed DataCleaner is simply by doing what DataCleaner's main executable does - instantiate the Bootstrap class with default arguments:
BootstrapOptions bootstrapOptions = new DefaultBootstrapOptions(args); Bootstrap bootstrap = new Bootstrap(bootstrapOptions); bootstrap.run();
To customize further, add your own implementation of the BootstrapOptions class. The main scenario for embedding DataCleaner is to run the application in the so-called "single datastore mode". This can be achieved by implementing the BootstrapOptions and providing a non-null value for the getSingleDatastore() method.
