Andrew Purtell updated HBASE-1002:
----------------------------------
Issue Type: Sub-task (was: Improvement)
Parent: HBASE-2000
> Small query language for filters
> --------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-1002
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1002
> Project: Hadoop HBase
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: filters
> Reporter: Andrew Purtell
> Priority: Minor
>
> Improve the usability of filters by making them specifiable or executable
> using a little query language.
> For example:
> col("entry:price") > 3 && (col("entry:name") = "ABC" || col("entry:name")
> = "XYZ")
> Can be implemented as a little language compiler that takes filter
> specifications as input and builds the requisite hierarchy of filter API
> classes and actions as emitted java code.
> Compiler can be a utility class, something like:
> {code}
> Scan scan = new Scan();
> scan.addFamily(Bytes.toBytes("entry"));
> // ...
> scan.setFilter(Filter.compile("col(\"entry:price\") > 3 &&
> (col(\"entry:name\") = \"ABC\" || col(\"entry:name\") = \"XYZ\""));
> // ...
> {code}
> or even something like
> {code}
> Scan scan = Filter.compileScan("col(\"entry:price\") > 3 &&
> (col(\"entry:name\") = \"ABC\" || col(\"entry:name\") = \"XYZ\""));
> // ...
> {code}
> Can also be implemented using JRuby snippets sent to the regionserver for
> execution, but this has troublesome security implications.
