Class IntermediateForm

java.lang.Object

org.apache.hadoop.contrib.index.mapred.IntermediateForm

All Implemented Interfaces:

org.apache.hadoop.io.Writable

public class IntermediateForm
extends Object
implements org.apache.hadoop.io.Writable

An intermediate form for one or more parsed Lucene documents and/or delete terms. It actually uses Lucene file format as the format for the intermediate form by using RAM dir files. Note: If process(*) is ever called, closeWriter() should be called. Otherwise, no need to call closeWriter().

Method Detail

configure

public void configure(IndexUpdateConfiguration iconf)

Configure using an index update configuration.

Parameters:

iconf - the index update configuration

getDirectory

public org.apache.lucene.store.Directory getDirectory()

Get the ram directory of the intermediate form.

Returns:

the ram directory

deleteTermIterator

public Iterator<org.apache.lucene.index.Term> deleteTermIterator()

Get an iterator for the delete terms in the intermediate form.

Returns:

an iterator for the delete terms

process

public void process(DocumentAndOp doc,
           org.apache.lucene.analysis.Analyzer analyzer)
             throws IOException

This method is used by the index update mapper and process a document operation into the current intermediate form.

Parameters:

doc - input document operation

analyzer - the analyzer

Throws:

IOException

process

public void process(IntermediateForm form)
             throws IOException

This method is used by the index update combiner and process an intermediate form into the current intermediate form. More specifically, the input intermediate forms are a single-document ram index and/or a single delete term.

Parameters:

form - the input intermediate form

Throws:

IOException

closeWriter

public void closeWriter()
                 throws IOException

Close the Lucene index writer associated with the intermediate form, if created. Do not close the ram directory. In fact, there is no need to close a ram directory.

Throws:

IOException

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object

write

public void write(DataOutput out)
           throws IOException

Specified by:

write in interface org.apache.hadoop.io.Writable

Throws:

IOException

readFields

public void readFields(DataInput in)
                throws IOException

Specified by:

readFields in interface org.apache.hadoop.io.Writable

Throws:

IOException
