Apache Cassandra Learning Step by Step (3): Samples ABC

====16 Feb 2012, by Bright Zheng (IT进行时)====

4. Samples ABC

We try to learn it step by step to understand the concepts and Java API usages by means of:

1. Concept Introduction

2. CLI

3. Java Sample Code

4.1. Get a Single Column by a Key

4.1.1. Sample Code

public QueryResult<HColumn<String,String>> execute() {       

        ColumnQuery<String, String, String> columnQuery = HFactory.createStringColumnQuery(keyspace);

        columnQuery.setColumnFamily("Npanxx");

        columnQuery.setKey("512204");

        columnQuery.setName("city");

        QueryResult<HColumn<String, String>> result = columnQuery.execute();

       

        return result;

    }


4.1.2.  Sample Code run by Maven

C:\projects_learning\learning-cassandra-tutorial>mvn -e exec:java -Dexec.args="get" -Dexec.mainClass="com.datastax.tutorial.TutorialRunner"

The output is:

[INFO] --- exec-maven-plugin:1.1.2-Beta1:java (default-cli) @ cassandra-tutorial ---

HColumn(city=Austin)

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

[INFO] BUILD SUCCESS

4.1.3.  CLI

[default@Tutorial] get Npanxx['512204']['city'];

=> (column=city, value=Austin, timestamp=1329234388328000)

Elapsed time: 16 msec(s).

4.2. Get multiple columns by a Key

4.2.1. Sample Code

public QueryResult<ColumnSlice<Long,String>> execute() {

        SliceQuery<String, Long, String> sliceQuery =

            HFactory.createSliceQuery(keyspace, stringSerializer, longSerializer, stringSerializer);

        sliceQuery.setColumnFamily("StateCity");

        sliceQuery.setKey("TX Austin");

       

        //way 1: set multiple columnNames

        sliceQuery.setColumnNames(202L, 203L, 204L);

       

        //way 2: use setRange

        // change 'reversed' to true to get the columns in reverse order

        //sliceQuery.setRange(202L, 204L, false, 5);

        

        QueryResult<ColumnSlice<Long, String>> result = sliceQuery.execute();

        return result;

    }

4.2.2. Sample Code run by Maven

C:\projects_learning\learning-cassandra-tutorial>mvn -e exec:java -Dexec.args="get_slice_sc" -Dexec.mainClass="com.datastax.tutorial.TutorialRunner"

The output is:

[INFO] --- exec-maven-plugin:1.1.2-Beta1:java (default-cli) @ cassandra-tutorial ---

ColumnSlice([HColumn(202=30.27x097.74), HColumn(203=30.27x097.74), HColumn(204=30.32x097.73)]

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

[INFO] BUILD SUCCESS

4.2.3. CLI(TODO)

TODO: Refering to CLI Syntax, Cassandra can’t get multiple columns at one ‘get’ command?

4.3. Get multiple rows by a set of Key

4.3.1. Sample Code

public QueryResult<Rows<String,String,String>> execute() {

        MultigetSliceQuery<String, String, String> multigetSlicesQuery =

            HFactory.createMultigetSliceQuery(keyspace, stringSerializer, stringSerializer, stringSerializer);

        multigetSlicesQuery.setColumnFamily("Npanxx");

        multigetSlicesQuery.setColumnNames("city","state","lat","lng");       

        multigetSlicesQuery.setKeys("512202","512203","512205","512206");

        QueryResult<Rows<String, String, String>> results = multigetSlicesQuery.execute();

        return results;

    }

4.3.2. Sample Code run by Maven

C:\projects_learning\learning-cassandra-tutorial>mvn -e exec:java -Dexec.args="multiget_slice" -Dexec.mainClass="com.datastax.tutorial.TutorialRunner"

The output is:

[INFO] --- exec-maven-plugin:1.2:java (default-cli) @ cassandra-tutorial ---

Rows({

512205=Row(512205,ColumnSlice([HColumn(city=Austin), HColumn(lat=30.32), HColumn(lng=097.73), HColumn(state=TX)])),

512206=Row(512206,ColumnSlice([HColumn(city=Austin), HColumn(lat=30.32), HColumn(lng=097.73), HColumn(state=TX)])),

512203=Row(512203,ColumnSlice([HColumn(city=Austin), HColumn(lat=30.27), HColumn(lng=097.74), HColumn(state=TX)])),

512202=Row(512202,ColumnSlice([HColumn(city=Austin), HColumn(lat=30.27), HColumn(lng=097.74), HColumn(state=TX)]))})

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

[INFO] BUILD SUCCESS

4.3.3. CLI(TODO)

TODO: N/A?

4.4. Get Slices from a Range of Rows by Key

4.4.1. Sample Code

GetRangeSlicesForStateCity.java

public QueryResult<OrderedRows<String,String,String>> execute() {

        RangeSlicesQuery<String, String, String> rangeSlicesQuery =

            HFactory.createRangeSlicesQuery(keyspace, stringSerializer, stringSerializer, stringSerializer);

        rangeSlicesQuery.setColumnFamily("Npanxx");

        rangeSlicesQuery.setColumnNames("city","state","lat","lng");       

        rangeSlicesQuery.setKeys("512202", "512205");

        rangeSlicesQuery.setRowCount(5);

        QueryResult<OrderedRows<String, String, String>> results = rangeSlicesQuery.execute();

        return results;

    }

Important Note: The result actually is NOT meaningful (expected return might be 512202-512205, 4 rows, but actually not) since the Key is sorted by RandomPartitioner (which can be configured in /conf/cassandra.yaml, but not recommend to do so).  The result can be referred at “Sample Code run by Maven”.

4.4.2. Sample Code run by Maven

C:\projects_learning\learning-cassandra-tutorial>mvn -e exec:java -Dexec.args="get_range_slices" -Dexec.mainClass="com.datastax.tutorial.TutorialRunner"

The output is:

[INFO] --- exec-maven-plugin:1.2:java (default-cli) @ cassandra-tutorial ---

        SliceQuery<String, String, String> sliceQuery =

            HFactory.createSliceQuery(keyspace, stringSerializer, stringSerializer, stringSerializer);

        sliceQuery.setColumnFamily("AreaCode");

        mutator.addInsertion("650222", "Npanxx", HFactory.createStringColumn("lat", "37.57"));

        mutator.addInsertion("650222", "Npanxx", HFactory.createStringColumn("lng", "122.34"));

        mutator.addInsertion("650222", "Npanxx", HFactory.createStringColumn("city", "Burlingame"));

        mutator.addInsertion("650222", "Npanxx", HFactory.createStringColumn("state", "CA"));                

       

        MutationResult mr = mutator.execute();

        return null;

    }

4.7.2. Sample Code run by Maven

Omitted

4.7.3. CLI

[default@Tutorial] set StateCity['CA Burlingame']['650']='37.57x122.34';

[default@Tutorial] set AreaCode[‘650'][‘Burlingame__650’]=’37.57x122.34';

[default@Tutorial] set Npanxx['650222']['lat']='37.57';

4.8. Deletion

4.8.1. Sample Code

InsertRowsForColumnFamilies.java

public QueryResult<?> execute() {

        Mutator<String> mutator = HFactory.createMutator(keyspace, stringSerializer);

       

        //Mutator.addDeletion(String key, String cf, String columnName, Serializer<String> nameSerializer)

        //columnName as null means to delete the whole row.

        mutator.addDeletion("CA Burlingame", "StateCity", null, stringSerializer);

        mutator.addDeletion("650", "AreaCode", null, stringSerializer);

        mutator.addDeletion("650222", "Npanxx", null, stringSerializer);

        // adding a non-existent key like the following will cause the insertion of a tombstone

        // mutator.addDeletion("652", "AreaCode", null, stringSerializer);

        MutationResult mr = mutator.execute();

        return null;

 

    }

4.8.2. Sample Code run by Maven

Omitted…

4.8.3. CLI

[default@Tutorial] del StateCity['CA Burlingame'];

[default@Tutorial] del AreaCode['650'];

[default@Tutorial] del Npanxx['650222'];

Important Note: Whatever you use, either java code or CLI, the deletion event will still leave the DeletedColumn row key there marked as Tombstone (hehe, 墓碑, a really good naming) which can be retrieved back by command of ‘list’ like this.

[default@Tutorial] list StateCity;

Using default limit of 100

-------------------

RowKey: CA Burlingame

RowKey: TX Austin

=> (column=202, value=30.27x097.74, timestamp=1329297768323000)

=> (column=206, value=30.32x097.73, timestamp=1329297768385000)


2 Rows Returned.

Elapsed time: 16 msec(s).

As you see, two rows returned! Even the row of ‘CA Burlingame’ has been deleted.

Even worse, if the deletion of non-existing key will cause an issue called ‘insertion of a tombstone’ which means it will add one more row in the Column Family!!!

Fortrunately, the command of ‘get’ won’t retrieve it back any more.

[default@Tutorial] get StateCity['CA Burlingame'];

Returned 0 results.

Elapsed time: 0 msec(s).

 

Go deeper? Please read on.

When will Cassandra remove these tombstones? As I know, two ways:

1. Wait until gc_grace_seconds is timeout (Not verified yet)

The gc_grace_seconds is set per CF and can be updated without a restart.

How to get gc_grace_seconds? Simply use CLI:

[default@Tutorial] show schema;

create column family StateCity

  with column_type = 'Standard'

  and comparator = 'LongType'

  and default_validation_class = 'UTF8Type'

  and key_validation_class = 'UTF8Type'

  and rows_cached = 0.0

  and row_cache_save_period = 0

  and row_cache_keys_to_save = 2147483647

  and keys_cached = 200000.0

  and key_cache_save_period = 14400

  and read_repair_chance = 1.0

  and gc_grace = 864000   // 10 days, OMG

  and min_compaction_threshold = 4

  and max_compaction_threshold = 32

  and replicate_on_write = true

  and row_cache_provider = 'ConcurrentLinkedHashCacheProvider'

and compaction_strategy = 'org.apache.cassandra.db.compaction.SizeTieredCompactionStrategy';

 

2. The Compaction event (under investigation but no luck yet)

The Compaction will be triggered automatically.

But how to trigger compaction manually? Use nodetool as well.

C:\java\apache-cassandra-1.0.7\bin>nodetool -h localhost flush Tutorial

Starting NodeTool

C:\java\apache-cassandra-1.0.7\bin>nodetool -h localhost compact Tutorial

Starting NodeTool

Then we can see some logging messages in the Cassandra console.

But as I found, the tombstones are still here. (WHY???)

C:\java\apache-cassandra-1.0.7\bin>sstable2json ..\runtime\data\Tutorial\StateCity-hc-9-Data.db

{

"4341204275726c696e67616d65": [["650","37.57x122.34",1329316454906000]],

"54582041757374696e": [["202","30.27x097.74",1329297768323000], ["203","30.27x097.74",1329297768338000], ["204","30.32x097.73",1329297768354000], ["205","30.32x097.73",1329297768370000], ["206","30.32x097.73",1329297768385000]],

"616263": []

}

And still appears in the list command. (KAO, 阴魂不散? Big why???)

[default@Tutorial] list statecity;

RowKey: TX Austin

=> (column=206, value=30.32x097.73, timestamp=1329297768385000)

-------------------

RowKey: abc

 

3 Rows Returned.

Elapsed time: 31 msec(s).

 

 

在这儿咱发几句牢骚:

1. 可能是学习深度还不足的原因,感觉CLI比较弱,适合初始化建模DDL和简单的数据分析;

2. Tombstone的清理问题还没有最终得到验证,暂时挂起,权当悬案先,以后有答案了再补充、更正
