>
> The HMS DB notification listener currently stores an event ID on the HMS
> backend DB so that external applications (such as backup apps) can request
> incremental notifications based on the last event ID requested.
> The HMS DB notification and backup applications are asynchronous. However,
> there are sometimes that applications may be required to be in sync with the
> latest HMS event in order to process an action. These applications will
> provide a listener implementation that is called by the HMS after an HMS
> transaction happened.
> The problem is that the listener running after the transaction (or during the
> non-transactional context) may need the DB event ID in order to sync all
> events happened previous to that event ID, but this ID is never passed to the
> non-transactional listeners.
> We can pass this event information through the EnvironmentContext found on
> each ListenerEvent implementations (such as CreateTableEvent), and send the
> EnvironmentContext to the non-transactional listeners to get the event ID.
> The DbNotificactionListener already knows the event ID after calling the
> ObjectStore.addNotificationEvent(). We just need to set this event ID to the
> EnvironmentContext from each of the event notifications and make sure that
> this EnvironmentContext is sent to the non-transactional listeners.
> Here's the code example when creating a table on {{create_table_core}}:
> {noformat}
> ms.createTable(tbl);
> if (transactionalListeners.size() > 0) {
> CreateTableEvent createTableEvent = new CreateTableEvent(tbl, true, this);
> createTableEvent.setEnvironmentContext(envContext);
> for (MetaStoreEventListener transactionalListener :
> transactionalListeners) {
> transactionalListener.onCreateTable(createTableEvent); // <-
> Here the notification ID is generated
> }
> }
> success = ms.commitTransaction();
> } finally {
> if (!success) {
> ms.rollbackTransaction();
> if (madeDir) {
> wh.deleteDir(tblPath, true);
> }
> }
> for (MetaStoreEventListener listener : listeners) {
> CreateTableEvent createTableEvent =
> new CreateTableEvent(tbl, success, this);
> createTableEvent.setEnvironmentContext(envContext);
> listener.onCreateTable(createTableEvent); // <-
> Here we would like to consume notification ID
> }
> {noformat}
> We could use a specific key name that will be used on the EnvironmentContext,
> such as DB_NOTIFICATION_EVENT_ID.
