Re: [DISCUSS]: KIP-149: Enabling key access in ValueTransformer, ValueMapper, and ValueJoiner

With KIP-159, the added "valueMapperWithKey" and "valueTransformerWithKey"
along seem to be just adding a few syntax-sugars? E.g. we can simply
implement:

mapValues(ValueMapperWithKey mapperWithKey)

as

map((k, v) -> (k, mapperWithKey(k, v))

----------------------

I'm not sure how many users would really need such syntax sugars, and even
they do, we can support them easily as the above implementations;

Similarly for "ReducerWithKey", it can be implemented as `Aggregator<K, V,
V>`, and people who needs key access can just use `aggregate` directly.

The function which I think is really of valuable is `ValueJoinerWithKey`,
and that seems to be the original request from users while others are
coming from "API consistency" concerns. Personally I'd prefer only keep the
last one (`InitializerWithKey` might also have some value, but I have not
seen people widely requesting it in their DSL usage yet; if there is a
common request we can keep it in this KIP as well). WDYT?

Re: [DISCUSS]: KIP-149: Enabling key access in ValueTransformer, ValueMapper, and ValueJoiner

Posted by Jeyhun Karimov <je...@gmail.com>.

I fixed the KIP.

Cheers,
Jeyhun

Re: [DISCUSS]: KIP-149: Enabling key access in ValueTransformer, ValueMapper, and ValueJoiner

Posted by "Matthias J. Sax" <ma...@confluent.io>.
Hi Jeyhun,

thanks for starting the VOTE thread. I did make one more pass over the
KIP before casting my vote and I saw that the KIP still contains
backward incompatible change introducing `ValueTransformerCommon`.

I think, that for this case, it is not worth breaking compatibility. We
should have two independent interface and duplicate init() and close()
(note, with KIP-138 that got merged already, we don't need `punctuate()`
for ValueTransformerWithKey)

Re: [DISCUSS]: KIP-149: Enabling key access in ValueTransformer, ValueMapper, and ValueJoiner

Posted by "Matthias J. Sax" <ma...@confluent.io>.
I have no strong opinion, but it seems that at least InitializerWithKey
with be helpful if you want to have different start values for different
keys (even if I cannot come up with a use case example why one wanted to
do this...). Otherwise, there is just the "completeness" argument, that
is not too strong either.

Re: [DISCUSS]: KIP-149: Enabling key access in ValueTransformer, ValueMapper, and ValueJoiner

Posted by Michal Borowiecki <mi...@openbet.com>.
If java 7 support is dropped by the time this is released, we could make 
transform(V value) a default no-op method and keep 
ValueTransformerWithKey as a functional interface, therefore supporting 
lambdas, otherwise...

Changing an abstract class into an interface is not backward compatible, 
so may be better to keep it an interface, sacrificing lambda support for 
now but once java 7 support is dropped, make transform(V value) a 
default method with no-op implementation to make it a functional 
interface allowing lambdas.

Cheers,

Michał

Re: [DISCUSS]: KIP-149: Enabling key access in ValueTransformer, ValueMapper, and ValueJoiner

Posted by Guozhang Wang <wa...@gmail.com>.
I'm not particularly concerning that we should NEVER break compatibility;
in fact if we think that is worthwhile (i.e. small impact with large
benefit) I think we can break compatibility as long as we have not removed
the compatibility annotations from Streams. All I was saying is that if we
decided to go this way we need to make sure this is mentioned in the
upgrade guidance.

Regarding the scope I'm still trying to solicit opinions regarding
ReducerWithKey and InitializerWithKey; to me they are not necessarily to be
included.

Re: [DISCUSS]: KIP-149: Enabling key access in ValueTransformer, ValueMapper, and ValueJoiner

Posted by Jeyhun Karimov <je...@gmail.com>.
Hi,

I introduced ValueTransformerCommon just to combine common methods of
ValueTransformer and ValueTransformerWithKey and avoid copy-paste.
I am aware of this issue and I agree that this needs users to compile the
code and therefore is not backwards compatible. When I saw this issue, I
thought the degree of incompatibility is small (the public APIs are the
same, users just need to recompile their code), so we can trade more
maintainable code in this case. I have to comments/solutions:

1. Basically we can remove ValueTransformerCommon class and return
ValueTransformer to its original form, which means there will be no issues
with backwards-compatibility. We just copy and past the methods inside
ValueTransformerCommon to ValueTransformerWithKey and maybe in future
releases, we can introduce ValueTransformerCommon.

2.  I have some doubts about Matthias's proposal.
If we extent withKey interface from original one   as you mentioned in
previous email, then we have to deal with
 ValueTransformer.transform(V value) method. As a result, inside withKey
interface we will have two transforms. Even if we make it abstract class,
user still have an access to play with both transform() methods. I think
this should not be allowed and seems "hacky" to me. Actually this was one
reason why I created withKey classes independently from original
interfaces.

Of course, you can correct me if I am wrong.


Cheers,
Jeyhun

Re: [DISCUSS]: KIP-149: Enabling key access in ValueTransformer, ValueMapper, and ValueJoiner

Posted by "Matthias J. Sax" <ma...@confluent.io>.
I agree with Guozhang's second point. This change does not seem backward
compatible.

As we don't have to support lambdas, it might be the easiest thing to
just extend the current interface:

> public interface ValueTransformerWithKey<K, V, VR> extends ValueTransformer<VR> 

When plugging the topology together, we can check if we get the
`withKey` variant and use a corresponding runtime class for execution,
so we get only a single time check. Thus, for the `withKey` variant, the
will be a `transfrom(V value)` method, but we will never call it.

Maybe we could make `ValueTransformerWithKey` an abstract class with a
`final` no-op implemenation of `transform(V value)` ?

Re: [DISCUSS]: KIP-149: Enabling key access in ValueTransformer, ValueMapper, and ValueJoiner

Posted by Guozhang Wang <wa...@gmail.com>.
Jeyhun, Matthias:

Thanks for the explanation, I overlooked the repartition argument
previously.

1) Based on that argument I'm convinced of having ValueMapperWithKey /
ValueJoinerWithKey / ValueTransformerWithKey; though I'm still not
convinced with ReducerWithKey and InitializerWithKey since for the former
it can be covered with `aggregate` completely and with latter I have seen
little use cases with it.

2) Another comment is on public interface ValueTransformer<V, VR> extends
ValueTransformerCommon<VR>:

I think changing the interface to extend from a new interface is not binary
compatible though source compatible, i.e. users still need to recompile
their code though no need to make code changes. We may need to mention that
in the upgrade path if we want to keep it that way.

Re: [DISCUSS]: KIP-149: Enabling key access in ValueTransformer, ValueMapper, and ValueJoiner

Posted by Jeyhun Karimov <je...@gmail.com>.
Hi,


Sorry for late reply. Just to make everybody in sync, the current version
of KIP supports lambdas. "withKey" (ValueMapperWithKey) interfaces are
independent, meaning they do not extend from "withoutKey" (ValueMapper)
interfaces.


I agree with Guozhang, and I am personally a bit reluctant to increase
overloaded methods in public APIs but it seems this is only way to solve
all related jira issues.
However, the most overloaded methods will be with ValueJoiner type, which
will be with ValueJoinerWithKey with new overloaded methods. Other
interfaces require mostly 1 extra overload.


>> I would suggest not doing it if user pop it up, but rather suggesting
them
>> to use `map`

I agree with Matthias as the core idea of this KIP was to collect all
related jira issues and propose one-shot solution for all. Afterwards, we
broke its scope into 2 KIPs (149 and 159).

Cheers,
Jeyhun

Re: [DISCUSS]: KIP-149: Enabling key access in ValueTransformer, ValueMapper, and ValueJoiner

Posted by "Matthias J. Sax" <ma...@confluent.io>.
I guess I missunderstood you. Your are right that overloading the method
would also work. As both interfaces will be independent from each other,
there should be no problem.

The initial proposal was to use

> interface ValueMapperWithKey extends ValueMapper

and this would break Lambda. We totally missed, that we don't need new
methods but only only overlaods. Great you point this out! I was not
quite happy with the newly added methods.

>> I would suggest not doing it if user pop it up, but rather suggesting them
>> to use `map`

But this might introduce unnecessary re-partitioning for downstream
operators. I don't thinks that a good suggestion. But if we only add new
overloads for mapValue(), flatMapValue() etc, I don't see a big issue
with "overstaffing" the API (what is btw a very valid concern).

Re: [DISCUSS]: KIP-149: Enabling key access in ValueTransformer, ValueMapper, and ValueJoiner

Not sure if I understand this comment.. My main point is not on changing
the proposal but just reduce it scope to `ValueJoinerWithKey` only; and
even if we want to keep them all, I'd suggest we just implement the added
APIs by using the `KeyValueMapper` for `ValueMapperWithKeys`, etc, which
seems simpler to me. Does that affect lambda expression usage?

I would suggest not doing it if user pop it up, but rather suggesting them
to use `map` etc directly but set the key unchanged rather than providing a
new operator for it. To me some syntax sugars like this seems of less
valuable than others (like print / writeAsText / foreach that are all
depending on peek), and keeping adding them will just make the DSL too
“overstaffed”.

Re: [DISCUSS]: KIP-149: Enabling key access in ValueTransformer, ValueMapper, and ValueJoiner

Posted by "Matthias J. Sax" <ma...@confluent.io>.
We started with this proposal but it does not allow for Lambdas (in case
you want key access). Do you think preserving Lambdas is not important
enough for this case -- I agree that there is some price to be paid to
keep Lambdas.

About API consistency: I can't remember a concrete user request to have
key access in all operators. But I am pretty sure, if we only add it for
some, this request will pop up quickly. IMHO, it's better to do it all
in one shot. (But I am not strict about it if most people think we
should limit it to what was requested by users.)
