Flume-NG中的Channel与Transaction关系(原创)

  在sink和source中(不管是内置还是自定义的),基本都有如下代码,这些代码在sink中的process方法中,而在source中自己不需要去写,在source中getChannelProcessor().processEventBatch(events)方法中会自动创建下面类似的:  

    ...
    Channel channel = getChannel();
    Transaction transaction = channel.getTransaction();
    Event event = null;
    Status result = Status.READY;
    transaction.begin();
    ...
    event = channel.take();//getChannelProcessor().processEvent(event);,前者用于sink后者用于source
    ...
    transaction.commit();
    transaction.rollback()
    transaction.close();
    ...

  那么有些人就要问了?从上述代码中似乎只需要获取channel就可以了,因为获取数据时只需要event = channel.take()或者

getChannelProcessor().processEvent(event)?这样对吗?你可以去掉transaction试试,结果显示是不行的,出错!

  那么为什么呢?这确实有点让人疑惑,但实际上channel.take()操作是transaction.doTake()。也就是实际的put和take等操作都是在transaction中进行的,因此要用channel必须要先创建transcation才可以使用。而channel.getTransaction()方法就是获取(已经创建)或创建(还没有)transcation,BasicChannelSemantics的相对应代码如下:  

@Override
  public Transaction getTransaction() {

    if (!initialized) {
      synchronized (this) {
        if (!initialized) {
          initialize();
          initialized = true;
        }
      }
    }

    BasicTransactionSemantics transaction = currentTransaction.get();//获取transcation
    if (transaction == null || transaction.getState().equals(//如果transaction不存在或者已关闭就创建
            BasicTransactionSemantics.State.CLOSED)) {
      transaction = createTransaction();//创建
      currentTransaction.set(transaction);//赋值给currentTransaction
    }
    return transaction;
  }

  该方法在所有channel的父类BasicChannelSemantics中,然后在具体实现的channel类中需要实现protected abstract BasicTransactionSemantics createTransaction()这个抽象方法来获取相应的transaction对象。BasicChannelSemantics把transaction.take()和transaction.put(event)方法进一步封装成take()和put(event)方法,这俩方法就是暴露在sink或者source中的channel.take()和channel.put(event)方法。

 @Override
  public void put(Event event) throws ChannelException {
    BasicTransactionSemantics transaction = currentTransaction.get();
    Preconditions.checkState(transaction != null,
        "No transaction exists for this thread");
    transaction.put(event);
  }

  @Override
  public Event take() throws ChannelException {
    BasicTransactionSemantics transaction = currentTransaction.get();
    Preconditions.checkState(transaction != null,
        "No transaction exists for this thread");
    return transaction.take();
  }

  由此,可以看出工作行程了吧!

  Transaction transaction = channel.getTransaction();这一句至少要执行一次,因为执行一次之后就会将transcation对象缓存到currentTransaction中,后续就不会再创建transaction了。
