Chris Riccomini updated SAMZA-437:
----------------------------------
Attachment: SAMZA-437-0.patch
Attaching draft patch. Review board is at:
https://reviews.apache.org/r/26992/
Changes made:
# Removed environment variable compression (SAMZA-337), since we're passing via
HTTP now.
# Converted YARN's WebAppServer to a generic HttpServer in samza-core.
# Wrote JobServlet, which serves a job's config, task:SSP mapping, and
task:changelog partition mapping via HTTP JSON.
# Updated ShellCommandBuilder/CommandBuilder to set an HTTP URL environment
variable, rather than config, task:SSP mapping, and task:changelog partition
mapping.
# Updated ProcessJob, ThreadJob, and the AM code to run the
HttpServer/JobServlet, and set the HTTP URL environment variable when starting
SamzaContainers.
# Update SamzaContainer to fetch config, task:SSP mapping, and task:changelog
partition mapping using HTTP URL environment variable.
# Changed container name to container ID in SamzaContainerContext, and
run-\*.sh. Kept legacy "samza.container.name" system property, so we're
backwards compatible with log4j.properties files that refer to it (hello-samza).
# Wrote a JsonHelpers class to help with all the terrible back bending we have
to do to make Scala work with Jackson.
# Updated Util to remove the compress methods, and add a helper "read" method
for reading from HTTP URLs.
Remaining items in this ticket:
# Write tests.
Tickets I'd like to open as follow ons:
# Remove TaskNamesToSystemStreamPartitions, and convert to a proper
job/container/task data model. Make the data model Java based, and use Jackson
annotations.
# Convert the HttpServer to be a proper Jetty/Jersey/Jackson server that uses
the properly defined data model to serve its content.

> Project: Samza
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: container
> Reporter: Chris Riccomini
>
> We recently had a use case where we needed to wrap the Samza process() method
> in some code. The TaskLifecycleListener was insufficient to do this. We get a
> beforeProcess and afterProcess, but what we really wanted was:
> {code}
> def wrapProcess(...) {
> foo.doSomething(new Wrapper() {
> task.process(...)
> })
> }
> {code}
> We ended up just writing a wrapper task, and having the normal code defined
> via a subtask config:
> {noformat}
> task.class=foo.bar.WrapperTask
> task.subtask.class=foo.bar.NormalTask
> {noformat}
> Both of these tasks implement StreamTask. Samza just sees WrapperTask, and
> treats it like a normal task. Wrapper task instantiates the subtask, and
> manages its lifecycle internally.
> This approach seems superior to the TaskLifecycleListener.
> * Allows tasks to be composed multiple times.
> * Removes this complexity from the Samza framework, and makes it a concern of
> the job owner.
> * Allows the wrapper task to do things like filtering messages, tweaking
> configs and serialization, catching exceptions, etc.
> Given this, it seems that TaskLifecycleListener is a degenerate case, and
> adds complexity to the framework. I propose removing it.
