paul-rogers commented on pull request #1914: DRILL-7458: Base framework for 
storage plugins
URL: https://github.com/apache/drill/pull/1914
 
 
   Drill has an increasing number of storage plugins.
   It turns out, many have the same boilerplate code
   copy and pasted into each new plugin. This patch
   provides a generic framework to allow easier creation
   of storage plugins by abstracting out the
   boilerplate.
   
   Many storage plugins provide filter push-down,
   again by copying a large amount of boilerplate
   code from earlier plugins. This patch provides a
   generic filter push-down framework that abstracts out
   the common Drill/Calcite work, allowing the plugin
   to implement just the functionality unique to that
   plugin.
   
   A "dummy" plugin shows how to use both frameworks and
   acts as a "test mule" for the filter push-down framework.

> The "Easy" framework allows third-parties to add format plugins to Drill with 
> moderate effort. (The process could be easier, but "Easy" makes it as simple 
> as possible given the current structure.)
> At present, no such "starter" framework exists for storage plugins. Further, 
> multiple storage plugins have implemented filter push down, seemingly by 
> copying large blocks of code.
> This ticket offers a "base" framework for storage plugins and for filter 
> push-downs. The framework builds on the EVF, allowing plugins to also support 
> project push down.
> The framework has a "test mule" storage plugin to verify functionality, and 
> was used as the basis of an REST-like plugin.
