Hi, Am I wrong or is there a lack of documentation for the FilterModel for the filters in Stargate? The Wiki http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase/HbaseRest points to an old 0.20.4 documentation (although saying it is the new place) and the other page we have is void of details on the filters for scans, i.e. http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase/Stargate
They are implemented in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1696 (also see the linked https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2274) but no description is public. I used a little helper to get the details like so import org.apache.hadoop.hbase.filter.BinaryComparator; import org.apache.hadoop.hbase.filter.CompareFilter; import org.apache.hadoop.hbase.filter.Filter; import org.apache.hadoop.hbase.filter.RowFilter; import org.apache.hadoop.hbase.rest.model.ScannerModel; import org.apache.hadoop.hbase.util.Bytes; public class TestFilter { public static void main(String[] args) { Filter f = new RowFilter(CompareFilter.CompareOp.EQUAL, new BinaryComparator(Bytes.toBytes("testrow"))); try { System.out.println(ScannerModel.stringifyFilter(f)); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } } giving {"op":"EQUAL","type":"RowFilter","comparator":{"value":"dGVzdHJvdw==","type":"BinaryComparator"}} Obviously this can be also seen from the FilterModel class but I assume we need some documentation on that Stargate page? Should I open a JIRA? Thanks, Lars
