Prologue

之前笔者在介绍Flink 1.11 Hive Streaming新特性时提到过,Flink SQL的FileSystem Connector为了与Flink-Hive集成的大环境适配,做了很多改进,而其中最为明显的就是分区提交(partition commit)机制。本文先通过源码简单过一下分区提交机制的两个要素——即触发(trigger)和策略(policy)的实现,然后用合并小文件的实例说一下自定义分区提交策略的方法。

PartitionCommitTrigger

在最新的Flink SQL中,FileSystem Connector原生支持数据分区,并且写入时采用标准Hive分区格式,如下所示。

path
└── datetime=2019-08-25
    └── hour=11
        ├── part-0.parquet
        ├── part-1.parquet
    └── hour=12
        ├── part-0.parquet
└── datetime=2019-08-26
    └── hour=6
        ├── part-0.parquet

那么,已经写入的分区数据何时才能对下游可见呢?这就涉及到如何触发分区提交的问题。根据官方文档,触发参数有以下两个:

  • sink.partition-commit.trigger:可选process-time(根据处理时间触发)和partition-time(根据从事件时间中提取的分区时间触发)。
  • sink.partition-commit.delay:分区提交的时延。如果trigger是process-time,则以分区创建时的系统时间戳为准,经过此时延后提交;如果trigger是partition-time,则以分区创建时本身携带的事件时间戳为准,当水印时间戳经过此时延后提交。

可见,process-time trigger无法应对处理过程中出现的抖动,一旦数据迟到或者程序失败重启,数据就不能按照事件时间被归入正确的分区了。所以在实际应用中,我们几乎总是选用partition-time trigger,并自己生成水印。当然我们也需要通过partition.time-extractor.*一系列参数来指定抽取分区时间的规则(PartitionTimeExtractor),官方文档说得很清楚,不再赘述。

在源码中,PartitionCommitTrigger的类图如下。

下面以分区时间触发的PartitionTimeCommitTrigger为例,简单看看它的思路。直接上该类的完整代码

public class PartitionTimeCommitTigger implements PartitionCommitTrigger {
    private static final ListStateDescriptor> PENDING_PARTITIONS_STATE_DESC =
            new ListStateDescriptor<>(
                    "pending-partitions",
                    new ListSerializer<>(StringSerializer.INSTANCE));

    private static final ListStateDescriptor> WATERMARKS_STATE_DESC =
            new ListStateDescriptor<>(
                    "checkpoint-id-to-watermark",
                    new MapSerializer<>(LongSerializer.INSTANCE, LongSerializer.INSTANCE));

    private final ListState> pendingPartitionsState;
    private final Set pendingPartitions;

    private final ListState> watermarksState;
    private final TreeMap watermarks;
    private final PartitionTimeExtractor extractor;
    private final long commitDelay;
    private final List partitionKeys;

    public PartitionTimeCommitTigger(
            boolean isRestored,
            OperatorStateStore stateStore,
            Configuration conf,
            ClassLoader cl,
            List partitionKeys) throws Exception {
        this.pendingPartitionsState = stateStore.getListState(PENDING_PARTITIONS_STATE_DESC);
        this.pendingPartitions = new HashSet<>();
        if (isRestored) {
            pendingPartitions.addAll(pendingPartitionsState.get().iterator().next());
        }

        this.partitionKeys = partitionKeys;
        this.commitDelay = conf.get(SINK_PARTITION_COMMIT_DELAY).toMillis();
        this.extractor = PartitionTimeExtractor.create(
                cl,
                conf.get(PARTITION_TIME_EXTRACTOR_KIND),
                conf.get(PARTITION_TIME_EXTRACTOR_CLASS),
                conf.get(PARTITION_TIME_EXTRACTOR_TIMESTAMP_PATTERN));

        this.watermarksState = stateStore.getListState(WATERMARKS_STATE_DESC);
        this.watermarks = new TreeMap<>();
        if (isRestored) {
            watermarks.putAll(watermarksState.get().iterator().next());
        }
    }

    @Override
    public void addPartition(String partition) {
        if (!StringUtils.isNullOrWhitespaceOnly(partition)) {
            this.pendingPartitions.add(partition);
        }
    }

    @Override
    public List committablePartitions(long checkpointId) {
        if (!watermarks.containsKey(checkpointId)) {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException(String.format(
                    "Checkpoint(%d) has not been snapshot. The watermark information is: %s.",
                    checkpointId, watermarks));
        }

        long watermark = watermarks.get(checkpointId);
        watermarks.headMap(checkpointId, true).clear();

        List needCommit = new ArrayList<>();
        Iterator iter = pendingPartitions.iterator();
        while (iter.hasNext()) {
            String partition = iter.next();
            LocalDateTime partTime = extractor.extract(
                    partitionKeys, extractPartitionValues(new Path(partition)));
            if (watermark > toMills(partTime) + commitDelay) {
                needCommit.add(partition);
                iter.remove();
            }
        }
        return needCommit;
    }

    @Override
    public void snapshotState(long checkpointId, long watermark) throws Exception {
        pendingPartitionsState.clear();
        pendingPartitionsState.add(new ArrayList<>(pendingPartitions));

        watermarks.put(checkpointId, watermark);
        watermarksState.clear();
        watermarksState.add(new HashMap<>(watermarks));
    }

    @Override
    public List endInput() {
        ArrayList partitions = new ArrayList<>(pendingPartitions);
        pendingPartitions.clear();
        return partitions;
    }
}

注意到该类中维护了两对必要的信息:

  • pendingPartitions/pendingPartitionsState:等待提交的分区以及对应的状态;
  • watermarks/watermarksState:<检查点ID, 水印时间戳>的映射关系(用TreeMap存储以保证有序)以及对应的状态。

这也说明开启检查点是分区提交机制的前提。snapshotState()方法用于将这些信息保存到状态中。这样在程序failover时,也能够保证分区数据的完整和正确。

那么PartitionTimeCommitTigger是如何知道该提交哪些分区的呢?来看committablePartitions()方法:

  1. 检查checkpoint ID是否合法;
  2. 取出当前checkpoint ID对应的水印,并调用TreeMap的headMap()和clear()方法删掉早于当前checkpoint ID的水印数据(没用了);
  3. 遍历等待提交的分区,调用之前定义的PartitionTimeExtractor(比如${year}-${month}-${day} ${hour}:00:00)抽取分区时间。如果水印时间已经超过了分区时间加上上述sink.partition-commit.delay参数,说明可以提交,并返回它们。

PartitionCommitTrigger的逻辑会在负责真正提交分区的StreamingFileCommitter组件中用到(注意StreamingFileCommitter的并行度固定为1,之前有人问过这件事)。StreamingFileCommitter和StreamingFileWriter(即SQL版StreamingFileSink)的细节相对比较复杂,本文不表,之后会详细说明。

PartitionCommitPolicy

PartitionCommitTrigger解决了分区何时对下游可见的问题,而PartitionCommitPolicy解决的是对下游可见的标志问题。根据官方文档,我们可以通过sink.partition-commit.policy.kind参数进行配置,一共有三种提交策略(可以组合使用):

  • metastore:向Hive Metastore更新分区信息(仅在使用HiveCatalog时有效);
  • success-file:向分区目录下写一个表示成功的文件,文件名可以通过sink.partition-commit.success-file.name参数自定义,默认为_SUCCESS;
  • custom:自定义的提交策略,需要通过sink.partition-commit.policy.class参数来指定策略的类名。

PartitionCommitPolicy的内部实现就简单多了,类图如下。策略的具体逻辑通过覆写commit()方法实现。

两个默认实现MetastoreCommitPolicy和SuccessFileCommitPolicy如下,都非常容易理解。

public class MetastoreCommitPolicy implements PartitionCommitPolicy {
    private static final Logger LOG = LoggerFactory.getLogger(MetastoreCommitPolicy.class);

    private TableMetaStore metaStore;

    public void setMetastore(TableMetaStore metaStore) {
        this.metaStore = metaStore;
    }

    @Override
    public void commit(Context context) throws Exception {
        LinkedHashMap partitionSpec = context.partitionSpec();
        metaStore.createOrAlterPartition(partitionSpec, context.partitionPath());
        LOG.info("Committed partition {} to metastore", partitionSpec);
    }
}
public class SuccessFileCommitPolicy implements PartitionCommitPolicy {
    private static final Logger LOG = LoggerFactory.getLogger(SuccessFileCommitPolicy.class);

    private final String fileName;
    private final FileSystem fileSystem;

    public SuccessFileCommitPolicy(String fileName, FileSystem fileSystem) {
        this.fileName = fileName;
        this.fileSystem = fileSystem;
    }

    @Override
    public void commit(Context context) throws Exception {
        fileSystem.create(
                new Path(context.partitionPath(), fileName),
                FileSystem.WriteMode.OVERWRITE).close();
        LOG.info("Committed partition {} with success file", context.partitionSpec());
    }
}

Customize PartitionCommitPolicy

还记得之前做过的Hive Streaming实验么?

由上图可见,在写入比较频繁或者并行度比较大时,每个分区内都会出现很多细碎的小文件,这是我们不乐意看到的。下面尝试自定义PartitionCommitPolicy,实现在分区提交时将它们顺便合并在一起(存储格式为Parquet)。

Parquet格式与普通的TextFile等行存储格式不同,它是自描述(自带schema和metadata)的列存储,数据结构按照Google Dremel的标准格式来组织,与Protobuf相同。所以,我们应该先检测写入文件的schema,再按照schema分别读取它们,并拼合在一起。

下面贴出合并分区内所有小文件的完整策略ParquetFileMergingCommitPolicy。为了保证依赖不冲突,Parquet相关的组件全部采用Flink shade过的版本。窃以为代码写得还算工整易懂,所以偷懒不写注释了。

    }
    writer.close();

    for (Path file : files) {
      fs.delete(file, false);
    }

    return mergeDest;
  }
}

别忘了修改分区提交策略相关的参数:

'sink.partition-commit.policy.kind' = 'metastore,success-file,custom', 
'sink.partition-commit.policy.class' = 'me.lmagics.flinkexp.hiveintegration.util.ParquetFileMergingCommitPolicy'

重新跑一遍之前的Hive Streaming程序,观察日志输出:

20-08-04 22:15:00 INFO  me.lmagics.flinkexp.hiveintegration.util.ParquetFileMergingCommitPolicy       - 14 files in path /user/hive/warehouse/hive_tmp.db/analytics_access_log_hive/ts_date=2020-08-04/ts_hour=22/ts_minute=13

最后来验证一下,合并成功。
