Class CompareFilter

java.lang.Object

org.apache.hadoop.hbase.filter.Filter

org.apache.hadoop.hbase.filter.FilterBase

org.apache.hadoop.hbase.filter.CompareFilter

Direct Known Subclasses:

DependentColumnFilter, FamilyFilter, QualifierFilter, RowFilter, ValueFilter

@InterfaceAudience.Public
public abstract class CompareFilter
extends FilterBase

This is a generic filter to be used to filter by comparison. It takes an operator (equal, greater, not equal, etc) and a byte [] comparator.

To filter by row key, use RowFilter.

To filter by column family, use FamilyFilter.

To filter by column qualifier, use QualifierFilter.

To filter by value, use ValueFilter.

These filters can be wrapped with SkipFilter and WhileMatchFilter to add more control.

Multiple filters can be combined using FilterList.

Constructor Detail

CompareFilter

@Deprecated
public CompareFilter(CompareFilter.CompareOp compareOp,
                                 ByteArrayComparable comparator)

Deprecated. Since 2.0.0. Will be removed in 3.0.0. Use other constructor.

Constructor.

Parameters:

compareOp - the compare op for row matching

comparator - the comparator for row matching

CompareFilter

public CompareFilter(CompareOperator op,
                     ByteArrayComparable comparator)

Constructor.

Parameters:

op - the compare op for row matching

comparator - the comparator for row matching

Method Detail

getOperator

@Deprecated
public CompareFilter.CompareOp getOperator()

Deprecated. since 2.0.0. Will be removed in 3.0.0. Use getCompareOperator() instead.

Returns:

operator

getCompareOperator

public CompareOperator getCompareOperator()

getComparator

public ByteArrayComparable getComparator()

Returns:

the comparator

filterRowKey

public boolean filterRowKey(Cell cell)
                     throws IOException

Description copied from class: Filter

Filters a row based on the row key. If this returns true, the entire row will be excluded. If false, each KeyValue in the row will be passed to Filter.filterCell(Cell) below. If Filter.filterAllRemaining() returns true, then Filter.filterRowKey(Cell) should also return true. Concrete implementers can signal a failure condition in their code by throwing an IOException.

Overrides:

filterRowKey in class FilterBase

Parameters:

cell - The first cell coming in the new row

Returns:

true, remove entire row, false, include the row (maybe).

Throws:

IOException - in case an I/O or an filter specific failure needs to be signaled.

Deprecated. Since 2.0.0. Will be removed in 3.0.0. Use compareRow(CompareOperator, ByteArrayComparable, Cell)
