public interface HBase2EventSerializer
extends Configurable, ConfigurableComponent

Interface for an event serializer which serializes the headers and body of an event to write them to HBase 2. This is configurable, so any config params required should be taken through this. Only the column family is passed in. The columns should exist in the table and column family specified in the configuration for the HBase2Sink.

Method Detail

initialize

void initialize(Event event,
                byte[] columnFamily)

Initialize the event serializer.

Parameters:

event - Event to be written to HBase

columnFamily - Column family to write to

getActions

List<org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.Row> getActions()

Get the actions that should be written out to hbase as a result of this event. This list is written to HBase using the HBase batch API.

Returns:

List of Row which are written as such to HBase. 0.92 increments do not implement Row, so this is not generic.

getIncrements

List<org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.Increment> getIncrements()

close

void close()
