Norikra::Client (norikra-client)

This is the client library implementation for Norikra, and its handy CLI commands.

Norikra is CEP server, based on Esper. You can install gem install norikra on your JRuby. For more information, see http://norikra.github.io .

Command norikra-client and module Norikra::Client are provided for both of CRuby and JRuby.

  • For CRuby: gem install norikra-client
  • For JRuby: gem install norikra-client-jruby

Both have a same API and same data representations. You can use which you want.

Commands

Command norikra-client have some subcommands.

norikra-client -h
Commands:
  norikra-client event CMD ...ARGS    # send/fetch events
  norikra-client query CMD ...ARGS    # manage queries
  norikra-client target CMD ...ARGS   # manage targets
  norikra-client field CMD ...ARGS  # manage table field/datatype definitions
  
  norikra-client help [COMMAND]       # Describe available commands or one specific command

Options:
  [--host=HOST]
                 # Default: localhost
  [--port=N]
                 # Default: 26571

Of course, you can see helps of each subcommands by norikra-client SUBCMD help

Client Library

In your programs, you can operate Norikra with Norikra::Client instances.

require 'norikra-client'

client = Norikra::Client.new     # connect to localhost:26571
# client = Norikra::Client.new(hostname, portnum)

API

Norikra::Client.new(host, port, options={})

Instanciate with server's hostname and port number.

require 'norikra-client'
client = Norikra::Client.new('norikra.server.local', 26571)

Timeout options are available:

client = Norikra::Client.new(
    'norikra.server.local',
    26571,
    connect_timeout: 3, send_timeout: 1, receive_timeout: 3
)

Norikra::Client#targets

Returns list of hashes, which contains name(string) and auto_fields(true/false) of each targets.

client.targets #=> [{'name' => "demo", 'auto_field' => false}, {'name' => "sample", 'auto_field' => true}]

Norikra::Client#open(target_name, fields=nil, auto_field=true)

Create new target on norikra server, to put events and queries. Returns true or false (successfully created, or already exists).

client.open('sample') #=> true

Without fields, the specified target will be opened as 'lazy' mode, and actually opened when first input event arrived. Default field set will be determined at that time.

With field definitions, #open() creates the target and actually opens it immediately.

client.open('sample', {id:'integer', name:'string', age:'integer', email:'string'})

Fields specified on #open() are configured as default field set.

auto_field means which fields in arrived events are automatically added on field list, or not. Default is true. auto_field: true helps you to know What fields input event streams have. You can watch fields list on norikra, and write queries. But in cases your input streams have great many field name patterns, norikra returns long list of field names. That is not understandable. In these cases, you should specify auto_field false.

In spite of auto_field false, norikra server adds fields which are used in registered queries automatically.

Norikra::Client#close

Close the specified target. Norikra server stops all queries with that target.

client.close('sample')   #=> true

Norikra::Client#modify(target_name, auto_field)

Modify the specified target configuration of auto_field.

client.modify('sample', false)   #=> true

Norikra::Client#queries

Returns a list of hashes which contains name, group, expression and targets of registered queries.

client.queries #=> [{'name' => 'q1', 'group' => nil, 'expression' => 'select count(*) from sample ...', 'targets' => ['sample']}]

Attributes of query:

  • name: the name of query, that must be unique on norikra server
  • group: the group name of query to be used in sweep call to fetch all events of queries with same group name (nil: default)
  • expression: SQL expression
  • targets: list of targets, which are referred in this SQL (2 or more targets by JOINs and SubQueries)

Norikra::Client#register(query_name, query_group, query_expression)

Add query to norikra server. Query will be started immediately if all required targets/fields exists. If not, query actually starts when events arrived with all required fields.

client.register('q1', nil, 'select count(*) from sample.win:time_batch(1 min) where age >= 20')  #=> true

Norikra::Client#deregister(query_name)

Stop and remove specified query immediately.

client.deregister('q1')   #=> true

Norikra::Client#suspend(query_name)

Stop but does NOT remove specified query. Suspended queries are not recorded in stats file.

client.suspend('q1')   #=> true

Norikra::Client#resume(query_name)

Re-run specified query, which is suspended previously.

client.resume('q1')    #=> true

Norikra::Client#fields(target)

Returns the list of fields definitions, which contains name(string), type(string) and optional(true/false).

client.fields('sample') #=> [{'name' => 'id', 'type' => 'integer', 'optional' => false}, ...]

NOTE: Hashes and arrays are just returned as 'hash' and 'array'. Nested fields and these types are not returned to client.

Norikra::Client#reserve(target, field_name, type)

Specify the type of field, which not arrived yet.

client.reserve('sample', 'phone', 'string')  #=> true

This api is useful for fields, which has int data at a time, and has string data at the other time. Norikra determines fields' type at the first time with that field, and format input data by determined type. If you want to parse as int for a field but that field's value may be either String or Integer, you should do reserve() to determine it as int.

Norikra::Client#send(target, events)

Send list of input events into norikra server.

client.send('sample', [record1, record2, record3])

Members of events should be hash instance, which has a field at least. Field values must be able to be serialized with MessagePack. Safe with String, Integer, Float, true/false/nil, Hash and Array.

Norikra::Client#event(query_name)

Fetch events of specified query's output. Returns a list of [time, event].

client.event('q1') #=> [ [1383297109,{"count(*)":50}], [1383297169,{"count(*)":37}], ... ]

The first value of returned pairs is the time of output event as unix time (seconds from epoch). The second value is output record of query as Hash.

Norikra::Client#sweep(query_group=nil)

Fetch all output events of queries of specified group. query_group: nil means default query group. Returns Hash instance like 'query_name' => [list of output (same as #event)]

client.sweep() #=> for default group
client.sweep('my_secret_group')
