Detailed Description

Filesystem stream for outbound/writing data to the remote instance.

FsRemoteSend Background Socket I/O

This class creates a background thread that handles the socket I/O so that socket I/O can be executed in parallel to the main data acquisition thread (the thread that creates the object).

There is a Queue object that passes aggregated row data to the send thread; the default Queue size is 2 (representing a number of blocks), which allows 2 blocks of data to be queued before the internal private FsRemoteSend::submitImpl() (called implicitly by DbRemoteSend::append()) will block.

If the Queue size is 2 and the block size is 16384 then at most 32768 bytes will be queued for sending before the main thread will block in the internal private method FsRemoteSend::submitImpl().

This allows the main data acquisition thread to stay loosely in sync with the I/O thread so that memory usage is optimized and furthermore serves to avoid stalling the I/O thread due to lack of data.

OMQ::FsRemote class can be used for synchronous calls of the remote system.fs service

FsRemoteSend Usage

Call FsRemoteSend::append() to queue data for sending, then call FsRemoteSend::commit() to ensure that all data have been sent to the remote server before continuing.

In case of an error in the sending thread, FsRemoteSend::cancel() should be called to cancel the socket I/O send operation and shut down the socket thread. Note that in this case the file is not automatically deleted; to delete the file, call omq.system.service.fs.del() manually.

FsRemoteSend Example

FsRemoteSend fs(qrest, remote_fs_connection, relative_path, opts);
on_success fs.commit();
on_error fs.cancel();

map fs.append($1), dataIterator;

Note

This class is not thread-safe; it's designed to be used from a single thread; calling this class's methods from multiple threads simultaneously will result in unpredictable behavior

Member Function Documentation

append() [1/2]

OMQ::FsRemoteSend::append

(

data

data

)

Append data to the ready queue: data.

Example:

FsRemoteSend fs(qrest, target_path, opts);
on_success fs.commit();
on_error fs.cancel();

map fs.append($1), dataIterator;

Parameters

data	data to be sent

Data are queued for sending when the buffered byte count reaches the block size.

Note

• make sure to call either commit() (to flush all data to the server) or cancel() (to cancel the I/O operation) before continuing (see the example above)
• exceptions thrown in the socket I/O thread will be rethrown when this method is called so that errors can be handled in the main data thread

append() [2/2]

OMQ::FsRemoteSend::append

(

Qore::FileLineIterator

it

)

Append data to the ready queue using a FileLineIterator object for input.

Example:

FsRemoteSend fs(qrest, target_path, opts);
on_success fs.commit();
on_error fs.cancel();

fs.append(i);

Parameters

it	a FileLineIterator object with data to be sent to the remote server

This method processes the whole iterator in one call.

Note

• make sure to call either commit() (to flush all data to the server) or cancel() (to cancel the I/O operation) before continuing (see the example above)
• exceptions thrown in the socket I/O thread will be rethrown when this method is called so that errors can be handled in the main data thread

cancel()

OMQ::FsRemoteSend::cancel

(

)

this method purges any queued I/O and stops the socket thread and returns when the socket I/O thread has terminated

Example:

FsRemoteSend fs(qrest, target_path, opts);
on_success fs.commit();
on_error fs.cancel();

map fs.append($1), dataIterator;

Note

either this method or commit() should be called to ensure that all data has been sent

commit()

OMQ::FsRemoteSend::commit

(

)

this method flushes all buffered I/O to the remote server and returns when all data have been sent to the server and the socket I/O thread has terminated

Example:

FsRemoteSend fs(qrest, target_path, opts);
on_success fs.commit();
on_error fs.cancel();

map fs.append($1), dataIterator;

Log messages are created with performance information (bytes send, time of transfer, bytes / second, etc).

Note

• either this method, flush() or cancel() should be called to ensure that all data has been sent
• exceptions thrown in the socket I/O thread will be rethrown when this method is called so that errors can be handled in the main data thread
• equivalent to flush()

flush()

constructor() [1/4]

OMQ::FsRemoteSend::constructor	(	string	remote,
		string	path,
		*hash	options
	)

constructor taking a string giving the name of the remote connection for the remote server

Example:

FsRemoteSend fs(remote_name, target_path, opts);
on_success fs.commit();
on_error fs.cancel();

map fs.append($1), dataIterator;

Parameters

remote	a string giving the name of the remote connection for the remote server
path	a string with full or relative path of the target file (inluding file name)
options	optional Streaming API Constructor Options as follows: "timeout": an HTTP socket timeout value in milliseconds; used locally and in the remote for socket I/O and queue operations; default value: 5m "loglevel": a default log level option for logging; see Log Levels for valid value "block": data block size (default 16384, minimum 4096); the number of bytes sent in each DataStream protocol chunk "queue_block_size": the number of blocks to queue for sending before the main data thread will block (default: 2) "queue_timeout": the number of milliseconds to wait for queue data before throwing a QUEUE-TIMEOUT exception "no_remote_timeout": if True the "timeout" option will not be sent to the remote

Note

• to calculate the total data queued for the socket I/O thread, multiply block by queue_block_size (default 16384 * 2 = 32768 bytes)
• the explicit or default timeout value here overrides any socket I/O timeout set for the remote connection object

constructor() [2/4]

OMQ::FsRemoteSend::constructor	(	string	remote,
		string	conn,
		string	path,
		*hash	options
	)

del()

nothing OMQ::FsRemoteSend::del

(

)

executes an implicit commit() and deletes the file given in path in the constructor()

Example:

    on_success fs.commit();
    on_error fs.cancel();

Parameters

target	a new path with filename. Relative to user connection if the user connection constructor is used.
man	rename the file manually by copying the file's data and then deleting the source file, this is sometimes necessary on some OSes when renaming files across filesystem boundaries

Warning

The original file after the rename does not exist anymore if man is set to True. Any additional append() call will result in an exception.

Note

do not call this method before all data have been sent (ie call only after calling commit() first as in the example above)

queues buffered data to be sent in the socket I/O thread

Returns

True if the I/O thread is running, False if not
