-----------------------------------------
Summary: When using UNION with 2 HbaseStorages, casting to chararray results in empty string
Key: PIG-3628
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-3628
Project: Pig
Issue Type: Bug
Components: parser
Affects Versions: 0.11
Environment: CDH5, Centos 6
Reporter: Jochem van Grondelle
Priority: Minor
Hi,
We stumbled upon the following issue. I am wondering if anyone can help us with it. I am available for any follow up questions. Unfortunately, I am not a Java programmer, so I cannot supply a fix if this actually is a bug.
It seems that the following issue is specific to the HbaseLoader, but I am not sure. When using any other loaders (two times PigStorage), the problem doesn't exist.
It seems that even when we specifiy 'content:map [ chararray ] ' when loading data from HBase, and Pig is saying the schema contains chararrays, still maybe in the background those fields are bytearrays that seem to be not convertable.
First create 2 Hbase tables:
{code}
--hbase shell
--
--hbase(main):001:0> create 'test_table1','f'
--0 row(s) in 20.0530 seconds
--
--hbase(main):002:0> create 'test_table2', 'f'
--0 row(s) in 1.4420 seconds
--
--hbase(main):008:0> put 'test_table1','1-1386066912072','f:date_created','2012-01-04T11:33:59:05321'
--0 row(s) in 5.3380 seconds
--
--hbase(main):002:0> put 'test_table2','2-1386066912074','f:date_created','2012-01-04T11:33:59:05321'
--0 row(s) in 0.0540 seconds
--
--
--hbase(main):003:0> quit
{code}
-- Then run the following Pig script:
{code}
hbs1 = LOAD 'hbase://test_table1'
USING org.apache.pig.backend.hadoop.hbase.HBaseStorage(
'f:*','-loadKey true')
AS ( id:bytearray, content:map[chararray]);
hbs2 = LOAD 'hbase://test_table2'
USING org.apache.pig.backend.hadoop.hbase.HBaseStorage(
'f:*','-loadKey true')
AS ( id:bytearray, content:map[chararray]);
hbs3 = UNION hbs1, hbs2;
hbs4 = FOREACH hbs3
GENERATE id as hbase_id
, flatten(content#'date_created') as date_created
;
hbs5 = FOREACH hbs4
GENERATE hbase_id
, date_created --without (chararray)
, SUBSTRING( date_created,1,10) as date_created_trunc
;
DUMP hbs5;
{code}
*Result*
{code}
(2-1386066912074,2012-01-04T11:33:59:05321,)
(1-1386066912072,2012-01-04T11:33:59:05321,)
{code}
*Expected result*
{code}
(2-1386066912074,2012-01-04T11:33:59:05321,2012-01-04)
(1-1386066912072,2012-01-04T11:33:59:05321,2012-01-04)
{code}
The Substring function in combination with the date_created is just for example purposes. There are several String functions that we want to be able to use.
