I have a table of street names in a single field in this format:
George St
Adeline Way
Parker Blvd
I want to split this into two fields that include, for example:
FIELD1 = George
FIELD 2 = St
I think I need to use the SubString Extractor Transformer? any ideas on the best way to go about this?
@timh You could use AttributeSplitter, but this would assume you don't have two part names like King Edward Blvd.
I would use the StringSearcher with a regular expression: ^(.+) (Blvd|St|Way)$ or even ^(.+) (.+)$
Under Advanced enter a name for the Subexpression Matches List Name. You should get two list elements per street name:
_list{0}.part King Edward
_list{0}.startIndex 0
_list{1}.part Blvd
_list{1}.startIndex 12
name King Edward BlvdI've attached an example workspace (FME 2022.1). You can use https://regexr.com/ to understand the details of the regex
