Class Combiner

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.accumulo.core.iterators.WrappingIterator
      org.apache.accumulo.core.iterators.Combiner

All Implemented Interfaces:

OptionDescriber, SortedKeyValueIterator<Key,Value>

Direct Known Subclasses:

TypedValueCombiner

public abstract class Combiner
extends WrappingIterator
implements OptionDescriber

A SortedKeyValueIterator that combines the Values for different versions of a Key into a single Value. Combiner will replace one or more versions of a Key and their Values with the most recent Key and a Value which is the result of the reduce method. Subclasses must implement a reduce method: public Value reduce(Key key, Iterator<Value> iter). This reduce method will be passed the most recent Key and an iterator over the Values for all non-deleted versions of that Key.

Nested Class Summary

static class

Combiner.ValueIterator A Java Iterator that iterates over the Values for a given Key from a source SortedKeyValueIterator.

Method Detail

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.

Specified by:

getTopKey in interface SortedKeyValueIterator<Key,Value>

Overrides:

getTopKey in class WrappingIterator

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().

Specified by:

getTopValue in interface SortedKeyValueIterator<Key,Value>

Overrides:

getTopValue in class WrappingIterator

Returns:

V

hasTop

public boolean hasTop()

Description copied from interface: SortedKeyValueIterator

Returns true if the iterator has more elements.

Specified by:

hasTop in interface SortedKeyValueIterator<Key,Value>

Overrides:

hasTop in class WrappingIterator

Returns:

true if the iterator has more elements.

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>

Overrides:

next in class WrappingIterator

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.

Specified by:

seek in interface SortedKeyValueIterator<Key,Value>

Overrides:

seek in class WrappingIterator

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.

reduce

public abstract Value reduce(Key key,
                             Iterator<Value> iter)

Reduces a list of Values into a single Value.

Parameters:

key - The most recent version of the Key being reduced.

iter - An iterator over the Values for different versions of the key.

Returns:

The combined Value.

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>

Overrides:

init in class WrappingIterator

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.

Throws:

IOException - unused.

deepCopy

public SortedKeyValueIterator<Key,Value> deepCopy(IteratorEnvironment env)

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.

Specified by:

deepCopy in interface SortedKeyValueIterator<Key,Value>

Overrides:

deepCopy in class WrappingIterator

Parameters:

env - IteratorEnvironment environment in which iterator is being run.

Returns:

SortedKeyValueIterator a copy of this iterator (with the same source and settings).

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

setColumns

public static void setColumns(IteratorSetting is,
                              List<IteratorSetting.Column> columns)

A convenience method to set which columns a combiner should be applied to.

Parameters:

is - iterator settings object to configure

columns - a list of columns to encode as the value for the combiner column configuration

setCombineAllColumns

public static void setCombineAllColumns(IteratorSetting is,
                                        boolean combineAllColumns)

A convenience method to set the "all columns" option on a Combiner.

Parameters:

is - iterator settings object to configure

combineAllColumns - if true, the columns option is ignored and the Combiner will be applied to all columns
