Interface ProcessSession

public interface ProcessSession

A process session encompasses all the behaviors a processor can perform to obtain, clone, read, modify remove FlowFiles in an atomic unit. A process session is always tied to a single processor at any one time and ensures no FlowFile can ever be accessed by any more than one processor at a given time. The session also ensures that all FlowFiles are always accounted for. The creator of a ProcessSession is always required to manage the session.

A session is not considered thread safe. The session supports a unit of work that is either committed or rolled back

As noted on specific methods and for specific exceptions automated rollback will occur to ensure consistency of the repository. However, several situations can result in exceptions yet not cause automated rollback. In these cases the consistency of the repository will be retained but callers will be able to indicate whether it should result in rollback or continue on toward a commit.

A process session instance may be used continuously. That is, after each commit or rollback, the session can be used again.

Method Detail

commit

void commit()

Commits the current session ensuring all operations against FlowFiles within this session are atomically persisted. All FlowFiles operated on within this session must be accounted for by transfer or removal or the commit will fail.

As soon as the commit completes the session is again ready to be used

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if detected that this method is being called from within a callback of another method in this session.

FlowFileHandlingException - if not all FlowFiles acted upon within this session are accounted for by user code such that they have a transfer identified or where marked for removal. Automated rollback occurs.

ProcessException - if some general fault occurs while persisting the session. Initiates automatic rollback. The root cause can be obtained via Exception.getCause()

rollback

void rollback()

Reverts any changes made during this session. All FlowFiles are restored back to their initial session state and back to their original queues. If this session is already committed or rolled back then no changes will occur. This method can be called any number of times. Calling this method is identical to calling rollback(boolean) passing false as the parameter.

rollback

void rollback(boolean penalize)

Reverts any changes made during this session. All FlowFiles are restored back to their initial session state and back to their original queues, after optionally being penalized. If this session is already committed or rolled back then no changes will occur. This method can be called any number of times.

Parameters:

penalize - whether or not the FlowFiles that are being restored back to their queues should be penalized

adjustCounter

void adjustCounter(String name,
                 long delta,
                 boolean immediate)

Adjusts counter data for the given counter name and takes care of registering the counter if not already present. The adjustment occurs only if and when the ProcessSession is committed.

Parameters:

name - the name of the counter

delta - the delta by which to modify the counter (+ or -)

immediate - if true, the counter will be updated immediately, without regard to whether the ProcessSession is commit or rolled back; otherwise, the counter will be incremented only if and when the ProcessSession is committed.

get

FlowFile get()

Returns:

FlowFile that is next highest priority FlowFile to process. Otherwise returns null.

get

List<FlowFile> get(int maxResults)

Returns up to maxResults FlowFiles from the work queue. If no FlowFiles are available, returns an empty list. Will not return null. If multiple incoming queues are present, the behavior is unspecified in terms of whether all queues or only a single queue will be polled in a single call.

Parameters:

maxResults - the maximum number of FlowFiles to return

Returns:

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if maxResults is less than 0

get

List<FlowFile> get(FlowFileFilter filter)

Returns all FlowFiles from all of the incoming queues for which the given FlowFileFilter indicates should be accepted. Calls to this method provide exclusive access to the underlying queues. I.e., no other thread will be permitted to pull FlowFiles from this Processor's queues or add FlowFiles to this Processor's incoming queues until this method call has returned.

Parameters:

filter -

Returns:

getQueueSize

QueueSize getQueueSize()

Returns:

the QueueSize that represents the number of FlowFiles and their combined data size for all FlowFiles waiting to be processed by the Processor that owns this ProcessSession, regardless of which Connection the FlowFiles live on

create

FlowFile create()

Creates a new FlowFile in the repository with no content and without any linkage to a parent FlowFile. This method is appropriate only when data is received or created from an external system. Otherwise, this method should be avoided and should instead use create(FlowFile) or #create(Collection). When this method is used, a Provenance CREATE or RECEIVE Event should be generated. See the getProvenanceReporter() method and ProvenanceReporter class for more information

Returns:

newly created FlowFile

create

FlowFile create(FlowFile parent)

Creates a new FlowFile in the repository with no content but with a parent linkage to parent. The newly created FlowFile will inherit all of the parent's attributes except for the UUID. This method will automatically generate a Provenance FORK event or a Provenance JOIN event, depending on whether or not other FlowFiles are generated from the same parent before the ProcessSession is committed.

Parameters:

parent -

Returns:

create

FlowFile create(Collection<FlowFile> parents)

Creates a new FlowFile in the repository with no content but with a parent linkage to the FlowFiles specified by the parents Collection. The newly created FlowFile will inherit all of the attributes that are in common to all parents (except for the UUID, which will be in common if only a single parent exists). This method will automatically generate a Provenance JOIN event.

Parameters:

parents -

Returns:

clone

FlowFile clone(FlowFile example)

Creates a new FlowFile that is a clone of the given FlowFile as of the time this is called, both in content and attributes. This method automatically emits a Provenance CLONE Event.

Parameters:

example - FlowFile to be the source of cloning - given FlowFile must be a part of the given session

Returns:

FlowFile that is a clone of the given example

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if detected that this method is being called from within a callback of another method in this session and for the given FlowFile(s)

FlowFileHandlingException - if the given FlowFile is already transferred or removed or doesn't belong to this session. Automatic rollback will occur.

MissingFlowFileException - if the given FlowFile content cannot be found. The FlowFile should no longer be reference, will be internally destroyed, and the session is automatically rolled back and what is left of the FlowFile is destroyed.

FlowFileAccessException - if some IO problem occurs accessing FlowFile content

NullPointerException - if the argument null

clone

FlowFile clone(FlowFile example,
             long offset,
             long size)

Creates a new FlowFile whose parent is the given FlowFile. The content of the new FlowFile will be a subset of the byte sequence of the given FlowFile starting at the specified offset and with the length specified. The new FlowFile will contain all of the attributes of the original. This method automatically emits a Provenance FORK Event (or a Provenance CLONE Event, if the offset is 0 and the size is exactly equal to the size of the example FlowFile).

Parameters:

example -

offset -

size -

Returns:

a FlowFile with the specified size whose parent is first argument to this function

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if detected that this method is being called from within a callback of another method in this session and for the given FlowFile

FlowFileHandlingException - if the given FlowFile is already transferred or removed or doesn't belong to this session, or if the specified offset + size exceeds that of the size of the example FlowFile. Automatic rollback will occur.

transfer

void transfer(FlowFile flowFile,
            Relationship relationship)
