Right way to use phoenix client - 4.3.1 jar

[Arun Kumaran Sabtharishi <ar...@gmail.com>]

Hello Phoenix users and developers,

Recently upgraded to the phoenix to 4.3.1 and the following things are hazy.

1. What is the right way to use the phoenix jdbc client?

2. Since there is no phoenix-4.3.1-client.jar in the maven repository, is
it wise to use the jar as a library within the project?

3. Could someone point to the right documentation/location on how the
phoenix client jar has to be used?

Thanks,
Arun

Hi Arun,

The quick start guide [0] covers a lot of the basics.

(1) you can drop the client jar into your favorite JDBC tool -- we have
documentation about doing this with SQirrel [1].

(2) we don't as of today push the client uberjar to maven central, so
you'll need to get it from our binary distribution. For embedding in
projects, I would recommend you instead use maven (or similar) and have
your project depend on the phoenix-core module. Of course, if you prefer
the uberjar, you can publish it to your own personal/company/local maven
repository and reference it fro there.

(3) I'm not sure how to help -- just drop it in the class path and use the
standard JDBC APIs. Our driver prefix is "jdbc:phoenix".

Sorry, maybe you can ask more specific questions? We can use that to drive
improvements to the docs on our site.
