             Summary: [Pherf] Add attribute to dataSequence column attribute to 
support encoding sequence in different formats e.g. base62
                 Key: PHOENIX-2234
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-2234
             Project: Phoenix
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Jan Fernando


It would be really useful to be able to specify an encoding format for the 
generated sequence value for a Pherf <column> in the <datamapping> section. 
Pherf would still generate an integer as it does now, but before appending it 
to the column it would encode per the configured format.

For example:

        <column>
            <type>CHAR</type>
            <userDefined>true</userDefined>
            <dataSequence encoding="Base62">SEQUENTIAL</dataSequence>
            <length>10</length>
            <prefix>ABCDEFGH</prefix>
            <name>MY_PHERF_GENERATED_ID</name>
        </column>

So for the 100th sequence Pherf would end up generating like: ABCDEFGH  1c
