public abstract class Rule
extends java.lang.Object

Rules describe a pattern of operators. They also reference a Transformer. If the pattern of operators is found one or more times in the provided plan, then the optimizer will use the associated Transformer to transform the plan. Note: the pattern matching logic implemented here has a limitation that it assumes that all the leaves in the pattern are siblings. See more detailed description here - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1742 If new rules use patterns that don't work with this limitation, the pattern match logic will need to be updated.

Constructor Detail

Rule

public Rule(java.lang.String n,
            boolean mandatory)

Create this rule by using the default pattern that this rule provided

Parameters:

n - Name of this rule

mandatory - if it is set to false, this rule can be disabled by user

Rule

public Rule(java.lang.String n,
            OperatorPlan p)

Parameters:

n - Name of this rule

p - Pattern to look for.

Method Detail

buildPattern

protected abstract OperatorPlan buildPattern()

Build the pattern that this rule will look for

Returns:

the pattern to look for by this rule

getNewTransformer

public abstract Transformer getNewTransformer()

Get the transformer for this rule. Abstract because the rule may want to choose how to instantiate the transformer. This should never return a cached transformer, it should always return a fresh one with no state.

Returns:

Transformer to use with this rule

getPattern

public OperatorPlan getPattern()

Return the pattern to be matched for this rule

Returns:

the pattern to be matched for this rule

isSkipListener

protected boolean isSkipListener()

setSkipListener

protected void setSkipListener(boolean skip)

match

public java.util.List<OperatorPlan> match(OperatorPlan plan)
                                   throws FrontendException

Search for all the sub-plans that matches the pattern defined by this rule. See class description above for limitations on the patterns supported.

Parameters:

plan - the OperatorPlan to look for matches to the pattern

Returns:

A list of all matched sub-plans. The returned plans are partial views of the original OperatorPlan. Each is a sub-set of the original plan and represents the same topology as the pattern, but operators in the returned plan are the same objects as the original plan. Therefore, a call getPlan() from any node in the return plan would return the original plan.

Throws:

FrontendException

getName

public java.lang.String getName()

isMandatory

public boolean isMandatory()
