Class PathPartitioner

java.lang.Object

org.apache.pig.piggybank.storage.partition.PathPartitioner

public class PathPartitioner
extends Object

Its convenient sometimes to partition logs by date values or other e.g. country, city etc.
A daydate partitioned hdfs directory might look something like:

 /logs/repo/mylog/
                                        daydate=2010-01-01
                                    daydate=2010-01-02
 

This class accepts a path like /logs/repo/mylog and return a map of the partition keys

getPathPartitionKeyValues

public Map<String,String> getPathPartitionKeyValues(String location)
                                             throws IOException

Note: this must be the path lowes in the Searches for the key=value pairs in the path pointer by the location parameter.

Parameters:

location - String root path in hdsf e.g. /user/hive/warehouse or /logs/repo

conf - Configuration

Returns:

Set of String. The order is maintained as per the directory tree. i.e. if /logs/repo/year=2010/month=2010 exists the first item in the set will be year and the second month.

Throws:

IOException

parsePathKeyValue

public String[] parsePathKeyValue(String path)

Will look for key=value pairs in the path for example: /user/hive/warehouse/mylogs/year=2010/month=07

Parameters:
