    • createCellHints

    • getPrefix

      public byte[] getPrefix()
    • filterRowKey

      public boolean filterRowKey(Cell firstRowCell)
      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:
      firstRowCell - The first cell coming in the new row
      Returns:
      true, remove entire row, false, include the row (maybe).
    • filterCell

      Description copied from class: Filter
      A way to filter based on the column family, column qualifier and/or the column value. Return code is described below. This allows filters to filter only certain number of columns, then terminate without matching ever column. If filterRowKey returns true, filterCell needs to be consistent with it. filterCell can assume that filterRowKey has already been called for the row. If your filter returns ReturnCode.NEXT_ROW, it should return ReturnCode.NEXT_ROW until Filter.reset() is called just in case the caller calls for the next row. Concrete implementers can signal a failure condition in their code by throwing an IOException.
      Overrides:
      filterCell in class Filter
      Parameters:
      c - the Cell in question
      Returns:
      code as described below

    • filterRow

      public boolean filterRow()
      Description copied from class: FilterBase
      Filters that never filter by rows based on previously gathered state from Filter.filterCell(Cell) can inherit this implementation that never filters a row. Last chance to veto row based on previous Filter.filterCell(Cell) calls. The filter needs to retain state then return a particular value for this call if they wish to exclude a row if a certain column is missing (for example). Concrete implementers can signal a failure condition in their code by throwing an IOException.
      Overrides:
      filterRow in class FilterBase
      Returns:
      true to exclude row, false to include row.
    • reset

      public void reset()
      Description copied from class: FilterBase
      Filters that are purely stateless and do nothing in their reset() methods can inherit this null/empty implementation. Reset the state of the filter between rows. Concrete implementers can signal a failure condition in their code by throwing an IOException.
      Overrides:
      reset in class FilterBase
    • filterAllRemaining

      public boolean filterAllRemaining()
      Description copied from class: FilterBase
      Filters that never filter all remaining can inherit this implementation that never stops the filter early. If this returns true, the scan will terminate. Concrete implementers can signal a failure condition in their code by throwing an IOException.
      Overrides:
      filterAllRemaining in class FilterBase
      Returns:
      true to end scan, false to continue.
    • getNextCellHint

      public Cell getNextCellHint(Cell cell)
      Description copied from class: FilterBase
      Filters that are not sure which key must be next seeked to, can inherit this implementation that, by default, returns a null Cell. If the filter returns the match code SEEK_NEXT_USING_HINT, then it should also tell which is the next key it must seek to. After receiving the match code SEEK_NEXT_USING_HINT, the QueryMatcher would call this function to find out which key it must next seek to. Concrete implementers can signal a failure condition in their code by throwing an IOException. NOTICE: Filter will be evaluate at server side so the returned Cell must be an ExtendedCell, although it is marked as IA.Private.
      Overrides:
      getNextCellHint in class FilterBase
      Returns:
      KeyValue which must be next seeked. return null if the filter is not sure which key to seek to next.
    • createFilterFromArguments

      public static Filter createFilterFromArguments(ArrayList<byte[]> filterArguments)
    • toByteArray

      public byte[] toByteArray()
      Returns The filter serialized using pb
      Overrides:
      toByteArray in class FilterBase
      Returns:
      The filter serialized using pb
    • parseFrom

      public static PrefixFilter parseFrom(byte[] pbBytes) throws DeserializationException
      Parse a serialized representation of PrefixFilter
      Parameters:
      pbBytes - A pb serialized PrefixFilter instance
      Returns:
      An instance of PrefixFilter made from bytes
      Throws:
      DeserializationException - if an error occurred
      See Also:
    • areSerializedFieldsEqual

      Returns true if and only if the fields of the filter that are serialized are equal to the corresponding fields in other. Used for testing.
      Overrides:
      areSerializedFieldsEqual in class FilterBase
      Returns:
      true if and only if the fields of the filter that are serialized are equal to the corresponding fields in other. Used for testing.
    • toString

      public String toString()
      Description copied from class: FilterBase
      Return filter's info for debugging and logging purpose.
      Overrides:
      toString in class FilterBase
    • equals

      public boolean equals(Object obj)
      Overrides:
      equals in class Object
    • hashCode
