HBase ORM Extensions

Introduction

Some extensions for the nice hbase-orm library, you can find the library here: hbase-orm

This was primarily developed to be used with big table.

Usage

This library provides a simple way to horizontally scale your hbase/bigtable row by simply annotating a corresponding member variable of your pojo class. Example:

public class Dependents implements Serializable {
    private Integer dependId;
}

@HBTable(name = "citizens", families = {@Family(name = "main"), @Family(name = "optional", versions = 10)})
public class Citizen implements HBRecord<String> {
    private static final String ROWKEY_DELIMITER = "#";
    @HBRowKey
    private String citizenId;
    @HBDynamicColumn(family = "dependents", qualifierField = "dependId")
    private List<Dependents> dependents; 
...
}

This will automatically store all Dependents in the list member variable dependents in the hbase table citizens using the following column qualifiers:

- dependents:dependId#1234
- dependents:dependId#9876
- dependents:dependId#952
