----------------------------------
Assignee: (was: Andrew Purtell)
> REST server doesn't support binary row keys
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-7621
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7621
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: REST
> Affects Versions: 0.94.0, 0.95.2
> Reporter: Craig Muchinsky
>
> The REST server doesn't seem to support using binary (MD5 for example) row
> keys. I believe the root cause of this is the use of Bytes.toBytes() in the
> RowSpec.parseRowKeys() method. Based on the use of Bytes.toStringBinary()
> within RemoteHTable.buildRowSpec(), I believe the converse function
> Bytes.toBytesBinary() should be used for row key parsing in
> RowSpec.parseRowKeys().
> I also noticed that the RemoteHTable.buildRowSpec() method isn't URL encoding
> the row key, which is a mismatch to the logic in RowSpec.parseRowKeys() which
> performs URL decoding for both the start and stop row keys.
