Thanks for alternative soln. > Support UDFs > ------------ > > Key: PHOENIX-538 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-538 > Project: Phoenix > Issue Type: Task > Reporter: James Taylor > Assignee: Rajeshbabu Chintaguntla > Fix For: 5.0.0, 4.4.0 > > Attachments: PHOENIX-538-wip.patch, PHOENIX-538_v1.patch, > PHOENIX-538_v2.patch, PHOENIX-538_v3.patch, PHOENIX-538_v4.patch, > PHOENIX-538_v5.patch, PHOENIX-538_v6.patch, PHOENIX-538_v6.patch > > > Phoenix allows built-in functions to be added (as described > [here](http://phoenix-hbase.blogspot.com/2013/04/how-to-add-your-own-built-in-function.html)) > with the restriction that they must be in the phoenix jar. We should improve > on this and allow folks to declare new functions through a CREATE FUNCTION > command like this: > CREATE FUNCTION mdHash(anytype) > RETURNS binary(16) > LOCATION 'hdfs://path-to-my-jar' 'com.me.MDHashFunction' > Since HBase supports loading jars dynamically, this would not be too > difficult. The function implementation class would be required to extend our > ScalarFunction base class. Here's how I could see it being implemented: > * modify the phoenix grammar to support the new CREATE FUNCTION syntax > * create a new UTFParseNode class to capture the parse state > * add a new method to the MetaDataProtocol interface > * add a new method in ConnectionQueryServices to invoke the MetaDataProtocol > method > * add a new method in MetaDataClient to invoke the ConnectionQueryServices > method > * persist functions in a new "SYSTEM.FUNCTION" table > * add a new client-side representation to cache functions called PFunction > * modify ColumnResolver to dynamically resolve a function in the same way we > dynamically resolve and load a table > * create and register a new ExpressionType called UDFExpression > * at parse time, check for the function name in the built in list first (as > is currently done), and if not found in the PFunction cache. If not found > there, then use the new UDFExpression as a placeholder and have the > ColumnResolver attempt to resolve it at compile time and throw an error if > unsuccessful. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
