Write Records using Write Proxy Client

This tutorial shows how to write records using write proxy client.

Open a write proxy client

  • Create write proxy client builder.

        DistributedLogClientBuilder builder = DistributedLogClientBuilder.newBuilder();
                .clientId(ClientId.apply("console-proxy-writer"))
                .name("console-proxy-writer");
    
  • Enable thrift mux.

        builder = builder.thriftmux(true);
    
  • Point the client to write proxy using finagle name.

        String finagleNameStr = "inet!127.0.0.1:8000";
        builder = builder.finagleNameStr(finagleNameStr);
    
  • Build the write proxy client.

        DistributedLogClient client = builder.build();
    

Write Records

  • Write records to a stream. Application does not provide TransactionID on writing. The TransactionID of a record is assigned by the write proxy.

        String streamName = "basic-stream-2";
        byte[] data = ...;
        Future<DLSN> writeFuture = client.write(streamName, ByteBuffer.wrap(data));
    
  • Register a future listener on write completion.

        writeFuture.addEventListener(new FutureEventListener<DLSN>() {
            @Override
            public void onFailure(Throwable cause) {
                // executed when write failed.
            }
    
            @Override
            public void onSuccess(DLSN value) {
                // executed when write completed.
            }
        });
    

Close the write proxy client

  • Close the write proxy client after usage.
        client.close();
    

Usage

Run the example in the following steps:

  1. Start the local bookkeeper cluster. After the bookkeeper cluster is started, you could access it using distributedlog uri distributedlog://127.0.0.1:7000/messaging/distributedlog.

        // dlog local ${zk-port}
        ./distributedlog-core/bin/dlog local 7000
    
  2. Start the write proxy, listening on port 8000.

        // DistributedLogServerApp -p ${service-port} --shard-id ${shard-id} -sp ${stats-port} -u {distributedlog-uri} -mx -c ${conf-file}
        ./distributedlog-proxy-server/bin/dlog org.apache.distributedlog.service.DistributedLogServerApp -p 8000 --shard-id 1 -sp 8001 -u distributedlog://127.0.0.1:7000/messaging/distributedlog -mx -c ${distributedlog-repo}/distributedlog-proxy-server/conf/distributedlog_proxy.conf
    
  3. Create the stream under the distributedlog uri.

        // Create Stream `basic-stream-2`
        // dlog tool create -u ${distributedlog-uri} -r ${stream-prefix} -e ${stream-regex}
        ./distributedlog-core/bin/dlog tool create -u distributedlog://127.0.0.1:7000/messaging/distributedlog -r basic-stream- -e 2
    
  4. Tailing the stream using TailReader to wait for new records.

        // Tailing Stream `basic-stream-2`
        // runner run org.apache.distributedlog.basic.TailReader ${distributedlog-uri} ${stream}
        ./distributedlog-tutorials/distributedlog-basic/bin/runner run org.apache.distributedlog.basic.TailReader distributedlog://127.0.0.1:7000/messaging/distributedlog basic-stream-2
    
  5. Run the example to write records to the stream in a console.

        // Write Records into Stream `basic-stream-2`
        // runner run org.apache.distributedlog.basic.ConsoleProxyWriter ${distributedlog-uri} ${stream}
        ./distributedlog-tutorials/distributedlog-basic/bin/runner run org.apache.distributedlog.basic.ConsoleProxyWriter 'inet!127.0.0.1:8000' basic-stream-2
    
  6. Example output from ConsoleProxyWriter and TailReader.

        Log stream basic-stream-2 is empty.
        Wait for records starting from DLSN{logSegmentSequenceNo=1, entryId=0, slotId=0}

  7. Open another terminal to run ConsoleProxyWriter. The write should succeed as write proxy is able to accept fan-in writes. Please checkout section Considerations to see the difference between Write Ordering and Read Ordering.
