Bassam Tabbara commented on HBASE-1744:
---------------------------------------
It would be great if the outcome of HBASE-2116 could be factored into the new
Thrift API.
I vote for keeping the Admin API given that 1) its already in the existing
thrift API and 2) it would be useful for scripting or even unit tests.
> Thrift server to match the new java api.

> Key: HBASE-1744
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1744
> Project: Hadoop HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: thrift
> Reporter: Tim Sell
> Assignee: Tim Sell
> Fix For: 0.21.0
>
> Attachments: Hbase.thrift, thriftexperiment.patch

> This mutateRows, etc.. is a little confusing compared to the new cleaner java
> client.
> Thinking of ways to make a thrift client that is just as elegant. something
> like:
> void put(1:Bytes table, 2:TPut put) throws (1:IOError io)
> with:
> struct TColumn {
> 1:Bytes family,
> 2:Bytes qualifier,
> 3:i64 timestamp
> }
> struct TPut {
> 1:Bytes row,
> 2:map<TColumn, Bytes> values
> }
> This creates more verbose rpc than if the columns in TPut were just
> map<Bytes, map<Bytes, Bytes>>, but that is harder to fit timestamps into and
> still be intuitive from say python.
> Presumably the goal of a thrift gateway is to be easy first.
