Class PathPartitionHelper

java.lang.Object

org.apache.pig.piggybank.storage.partition.PathPartitionHelper

public class PathPartitionHelper
extends Object

Implements the logic for:

• Listing partition keys and values used in an hdfs path
• Filtering of partitions from a pig filter operator expression

Restrictions
Function calls are not supported by this partition helper and it can only handle String values.
This is normally not a problem given that partition values are part of the hdfs folder path and is given a
determined value that would not need parsing by any external processes.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
Set<String>	getPartitionKeys(String location, org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration conf) Returns the partition keys for a location. The work is delegated to the PathPartitioner class
Map<String,String>	getPathPartitionKeyValues(String location) Returns the Partition keys and each key's value for a single location. That is the location must be something like mytable/partition1=a/partition2=b/myfile. This method will return a map with [partition1='a', partition2='b'] The work is delegated to the PathPartitioner class
List<org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileStatus>	listStatus(org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.JobContext ctx, Class<? extends LoadFunc> loaderClass, String signature) This method is called by the FileInputFormat to find the input paths for which splits should be calculated. If applyDateRanges == true: Then the HiveRCDateSplitter is used to apply filtering on the input files. Else the default FileInputFormat listStatus method is used.
void	setPartitionFilterExpression(String partitionFilterExpression, Class<? extends LoadFunc> loaderClass, String signature) Sets the PARITITION_FILTER_EXPRESSION property in the UDFContext identified by the loaderClass.
void	setPartitionKeys(String location, org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration conf, Class<? extends LoadFunc> loaderClass, String signature) Reads the partition keys from the location i.e the base directory

getPathPartitionKeyValues

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

Returns the Partition keys and each key's value for a single location.
That is the location must be something like mytable/partition1=a/partition2=b/myfile.
This method will return a map with [partition1='a', partition2='b']
The work is delegated to the PathPartitioner class

Parameters:

location -

Returns:

Map of String, String

Throws:

IOException

getPartitionKeys

public Set<String> getPartitionKeys(String location,
                                    org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration conf)
                             throws IOException

Returns the partition keys for a location.
The work is delegated to the PathPartitioner class

Parameters:

location - String must be the base directory for the partitions

conf -

Returns:

Throws:

IOException

setPartitionFilterExpression

public void setPartitionFilterExpression(String partitionFilterExpression,
                                         Class<? extends LoadFunc> loaderClass,
                                         String signature)
                                  throws IOException

Sets the PARITITION_FILTER_EXPRESSION property in the UDFContext identified by the loaderClass.

Parameters:

partitionFilterExpression -

loaderClass -

Throws:

IOException

setPartitionKeys

public void setPartitionKeys(String location,
                             org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration conf,
                             Class<? extends LoadFunc> loaderClass,
                             String signature)
                      throws IOException

Reads the partition keys from the location i.e the base directory

Parameters:

location - String must be the base directory for the partitions

conf -

loaderClass -

Throws:

IOException

listStatus

public List<org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileStatus> listStatus(org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.JobContext ctx,
                                                        Class<? extends LoadFunc> loaderClass,
                                                        String signature)
                                                 throws IOException

This method is called by the FileInputFormat to find the input paths for which splits should be calculated.
If applyDateRanges == true: Then the HiveRCDateSplitter is used to apply filtering on the input files.
Else the default FileInputFormat listStatus method is used.

Parameters:

ctx - JobContext

loaderClass - this is chosen to be a subclass of LoadFunc to maintain some consistency.

Throws:

IOException
