Class WholeColumnFamilyIterator

java.lang.Object
org.apache.accumulo.core.iterators.user.WholeColumnFamilyIterator
All Implemented Interfaces:
OptionDescriber, SortedKeyValueIterator<Key,Value>, YieldingKeyValueIterator<Key,Value>

public class WholeColumnFamilyIterator extends Object implements SortedKeyValueIterator<Key,Value>, OptionDescriber
The WholeColumnFamilyIterator is designed to provide row/cf-isolation so that queries see mutations as atomic. It does so by grouping row/Column family (as key) and rest of data as Value into a single key/value pair, which is returned through the client as an atomic operation. To regain the original key/value pairs of the row, call the decodeRow function on the key/value pair that this iterator returned.

1.6.0

    • decodeColumnFamily

      public static final SortedMap<Key,Value> decodeColumnFamily(Key rowKey, Value rowValue) throws IOException
      Decode whole row/cf out of value. decode key value pairs that have been encoded into a single // value
      Parameters:
      rowKey - the row key to decode
      rowValue - the value to decode
      Returns:
      the sorted map. After decoding the flattened data map
      Throws:
      IOException - Signals that an I/O exception has occurred.
    • encodeColumnFamily

      public static final Value encodeColumnFamily(List<Key> keys, List<Value> values) throws IOException
      Encode row/cf. Take a stream of keys and values and output a value that encodes everything but their row and column families keys and values must be paired one for one
      Parameters:
      keys - the row keys to encode into value
      values - the value to encode
      Returns:
      the value. After encoding keys/values
      Throws:
      IOException - Signals that an I/O exception has occurred.
    • filter

      protected boolean filter(org.apache.hadoop.io.Text currentRow, List<Key> keys, List<Value> values)
      Parameters:
      currentRow - All keys and cf have this in their row portion (do not modify!).
      keys - One key for each key and cf group in the row, ordered as they are given by the source iterator (do not modify!).
      values - One value for each key in keys, ordered to correspond to the ordering in keys (do not modify!).
      Returns:
      true if we want to keep the row, false if we want to skip it
    • deepCopy

      Description copied from interface: SortedKeyValueIterator
      Creates a deep copy of this iterator as though seek had not yet been called. init should be called on an iterator before deepCopy is called. init should not need to be called on the copy that is returned by deepCopy; that is, when necessary init should be called in the deepCopy method on the iterator it returns. The behavior is unspecified if init is called after deepCopy either on the original or the copy. A proper implementation would call deepCopy on the source.
      Specified by:
      deepCopy in interface SortedKeyValueIterator<Key,Value>
      Parameters:
      env - IteratorEnvironment environment in which iterator is being run, provided by Accumulo itself and is expected to be non-null.
      Returns:
      SortedKeyValueIterator a copy of this iterator (with the same source and settings).
    • getTopKey

      public Key getTopKey()
      Description copied from interface: SortedKeyValueIterator
      Returns top key. Can be called 0 or more times without affecting behavior of next() or hasTop(). Note that in minor compaction scope and in non-full major compaction scopes the iterator may see deletion entries. These entries should be preserved by all iterators except ones that are strictly scan-time iterators that will never be configured for the minc or majc scopes. Deletion entries are only removed during full major compactions.

      For performance reasons, iterators reserve the right to reuse objects returned by getTopKey when SortedKeyValueIterator.next() is called, changing the data that the object references. Iterators that need to save an object returned by getTopKey ought to copy the object's data into a new object in order to avoid aliasing bugs.

      Specified by:
      getTopKey in interface SortedKeyValueIterator<Key,Value>
      Returns:
      K
    • getTopValue

      public Value getTopValue()
      Description copied from interface: SortedKeyValueIterator
      Returns top value. Can be called 0 or more times without affecting behavior of next() or hasTop().

      For performance reasons, iterators reserve the right to reuse objects returned by getTopValue when SortedKeyValueIterator.next() is called, changing the underlying data that the object references. Iterators that need to save an object returned by getTopValue ought to copy the object's data into a new object in order to avoid aliasing bugs.

      Specified by:
      getTopValue in interface SortedKeyValueIterator<Key,Value>
      Returns:
      V
    • hasTop

      public boolean hasTop()
      Description copied from interface: SortedKeyValueIterator
      Returns true if the iterator has more elements. Note that if this iterator has yielded (@see YieldingKeyValueIterator.enableYielding(YieldCallback)), this this method must return false.
      Specified by:
      hasTop in interface SortedKeyValueIterator<Key,Value>
      Returns:
      true if the iterator has more elements.
    • init

      public void init(SortedKeyValueIterator<Key,Value> source, Map<String,String> options, IteratorEnvironment env) throws IOException
      Description copied from interface: SortedKeyValueIterator
      Initializes the iterator. Data should not be read from the source in this method.
      Specified by:
      init in interface SortedKeyValueIterator<Key,Value>
      Parameters:
      source - SortedKeyValueIterator source to read data from.
      options - Map map of string option names to option values.
      env - IteratorEnvironment environment in which iterator is being run, provided by Accumulo itself and is expected to be non-null.
      Throws:
      IOException - unused.
    • next

      public void next() throws IOException
      Description copied from interface: SortedKeyValueIterator
      Advances to the next K,V pair. Note that in minor compaction scope and in non-full major compaction scopes the iterator may see deletion entries. These entries should be preserved by all iterators except ones that are strictly scan-time iterators that will never be configured for the minc or majc scopes. Deletion entries are only removed during full major compactions.
      Specified by:
      next in interface SortedKeyValueIterator<Key,Value>
      Throws:
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
    • seek

      public void seek(Range range, Collection<ByteSequence> columnFamilies, boolean inclusive) throws IOException
      Description copied from interface: SortedKeyValueIterator
      Seeks to the first key in the Range, restricting the resulting K,V pairs to those with the specified columns. An iterator does not have to stop at the end of the range. The whole range is provided so that iterators can make optimizations. Seek may be called multiple times with different parameters after SortedKeyValueIterator.init(org.apache.accumulo.core.iterators.SortedKeyValueIterator<K, V>, java.util.Map<java.lang.String, java.lang.String>, org.apache.accumulo.core.iterators.IteratorEnvironment) is called. Iterators that examine groups of adjacent key/value pairs (e.g. rows) to determine their top key and value should be sure that they properly handle a seek to a key in the middle of such a group (e.g. the middle of a row). Even if the client always seeks to a range containing an entire group (a,c), the tablet server could send back a batch of entries corresponding to (a,b], then reseek the iterator to range (b,c) when the scan is continued. columnFamilies is used, at the lowest level, to determine which data blocks inside of an RFile need to be opened for this iterator. This set of data blocks is also the set of locality groups defined for the given table. If no columnFamilies are provided, the data blocks for all locality groups inside of the correct RFile will be opened and seeked in an attempt to find the correct start key, regardless of the startKey in the range. In an Accumulo instance in which multiple locality groups exist for a table, it is important to ensure that columnFamilies is properly set to the minimum required column families to ensure that data from separate locality groups is not inadvertently read.
      Specified by:
      seek in interface SortedKeyValueIterator<Key,Value>
      Parameters:
      range - Range of keys to iterate over.
      columnFamilies - Collection of column families to include or exclude.
      inclusive - boolean that indicates whether to include (true) or exclude (false) column families.
      Throws:
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
    • describeOptions

      public OptionDescriber.IteratorOptions describeOptions()
      Description copied from interface: OptionDescriber
      Gets an iterator options object that contains information needed to configure this iterator. This object will be used by the accumulo shell to prompt the user to input the appropriate information.
      Specified by:
      describeOptions in interface OptionDescriber
      Returns:
      an iterator options object
    • validateOptions

      public boolean validateOptions(Map<String,String> options)
      Description copied from interface: OptionDescriber
      Check to see if an options map contains all options required by an iterator and that the option values are in the expected formats.
      Specified by:
      validateOptions in interface OptionDescriber
      Parameters:
      options - a map of option names to option values
      Returns:
      true if options are valid, false otherwise (IllegalArgumentException preferred)
