Pinot provides a native java client to execute queries on the cluster. The client makes it easier for user to query data. The client is also tenant-aware and thus is able to redirect the queries to the correct broker.
You can use the client by including the following dependency -
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.pinot</groupId>
<artifactId>pinot-java-client</artifactId>
<version>1.3.0
include 'org.apache.pinot:pinot-java-client:1.3.0'You can also build the code for java client locally and use it.
Here's an example of how to use the pinot-java-client to query Pinot.
The client provides a ConnectionFactory class to create connections to a Pinot cluster. The factory supports the following methods to create a connection -
Zookeeper (Recommended) - Comma-separated list of zookeeper of the cluster. This is the recommended method which can redirect queries to appropriate brokers based on tenant/table.
Broker list - Comma separated list of the brokers in the cluster. This should only be used in standalone setups or for POC, unless you have a load balancer setup for brokers.
Controller URL - (v 0.11.0+) Controller URL. This will use periodic controller API calls to keep the table level broker list updated (hence there might be delay b/w the broker mapping changing and the client state getting updated).
Here's an example demonstrating all methods of Connection factory -
You can run the query in both blocking as well as async manner. Use
Connection.execute(String) for blocking queries
Connection.executeAsync(String) for asynchronous queries that return a future object.
You can also use PreparedStatement to escape query parameters. We don't store the Prepared Statement in the database and hence it won't increase the subsequent query performance.
Results can be obtained with the various get methods in the first ResultSet, obtained through the getResultSet(int) method:
Pinot supports , which can be enabled for your cluster using configuration. To support basic HTTP authorization in your client-side Java applications, make sure you are using Pinot Java Client 0.10.0+ or building from the latest Pinot snapshot. The following code snippet shows you how to connect to and query a Pinot cluster that has basic HTTP authorization enabled when using the Java client.
The following timeouts can be set:
brokerConnectTimeoutMs (default 2000)
brokerReadTimeoutMs (default 60000)
brokerHandshakeTimeoutMs (default 2000)
controllerConnectTimeoutMs (default 2000)
Timeouts for the Java connector can be added as a connection properties. The following example configures a very low timeout of 10ms:
Properties file - You can also put the broker list as brokerList in a properties file and provide the path to that file to the factory. This should only be used in standalone setups or for POC, unless you have a load balancer setup for brokers.
controllerReadTimeoutMs (default 60000)
controllerHandshakeTimeoutMs (default 2000)
