Description​

Read data from hdfs file system.

Key features​

Read all the data in a split in a pollNext call. What splits are read will be saved in snapshot.

path [string]​

The source file path.

delimiter [string]​

Field delimiter, used to tell connector how to slice and dice fields when reading text files

default \001, the same as hive's default delimiter

parse_partition_from_path [boolean]​

Control whether parse the partition keys and values from file path

For example if you read a file from path hdfs://hadoop-cluster/tmp/seatunnel/parquet/name=tyrantlucifer/age=26

Every record data from file will be added these two fields:

nameage
tyrantlucifer26

Tips: Do not define partition fields in schema option

date_format [string]​

Date type format, used to tell connector how to convert string to date, supported as the following formats:

yyyy-MM-dd yyyy.MM.dd yyyy/MM/dd

default yyyy-MM-dd

datetime_format [string]​

Datetime type format, used to tell connector how to convert string to datetime, supported as the following formats:

yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss yyyy.MM.dd HH:mm:ss yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm:ss yyyyMMddHHmmss

default yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss

time_format [string]​

Time type format, used to tell connector how to convert string to time, supported as the following formats:

HH:mm:ss HH:mm:ss.SSS

default HH:mm:ss

type [string]​

File type, supported as the following file types:

text csv parquet orc json

If you assign file type to json, you should also assign schema option to tell connector how to parse data to the row you want.

For example:

upstream data is the following:


{"code": 200, "data": "get success", "success": true}

You can also save multiple pieces of data in one file and split them by newline:


{"code": 200, "data": "get success", "success": true}
{"code": 300, "data": "get failed", "success": false}

you should assign schema as the following:


schema {
fields {
code = int
data = string
success = boolean
}
}

connector will generate data as the following:

codedatasuccess
200get successtrue

If you assign file type to parquet orc, schema option not required, connector can find the schema of upstream data automatically.

If you assign file type to text csv, you can choose to specify the schema information or not.

For example, upstream data is the following:


tyrantlucifer#26#male

If you do not assign data schema connector will treat the upstream data as the following:

content
tyrantlucifer#26#male

If you assign data schema, you should also assign the option delimiter too except CSV file type

you should assign schema and delimiter as the following:


delimiter = "#"
schema {
fields {
name = string
age = int
gender = string
}
}

connector will generate data as the following:

nameagegender
tyrantlucifer26male

fs.defaultFS [string]​

Hdfs cluster address.

hdfs_site_path [string]​

The path of hdfs-site.xml, used to load ha configuration of namenodes

schema [Config]​

fields [Config]​

the schema fields of upstream data

common options​

Source plugin common parameters, please refer to Source Common Options for details.

Example​


HdfsFile {
path = "/apps/hive/demo/student"
type = "parquet"
fs.defaultFS = "hdfs://namenode001"
}


HdfsFile {
schema {
fields {
name = string
age = int
}
}
path = "/apps/hive/demo/student"
type = "json"
fs.defaultFS = "hdfs://namenode001"
}
