----------------------------------------
Summary: IndexTool gives NPE when trying to do a direct build
without an output-path set
Key: PHOENIX-5111
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-5111
Project: Phoenix
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 4.14.1
Reporter: Geoffrey Jacoby
Assignee: Gokcen Iskender
The IndexTool has several modes. If the -direct or -partial-rebuild flags are
not set, the tool assumes the user wants to rebuild the index by creating
HFiles and then bulk-loading them back into HBase, and requires an extra
-output-path flag to deterine where the temporary HFiles should live.
In practice, we've found that -direct mode (which loads using HBase Puts) is
quicker. However, even though there's logic to not require the -output-path
flag when -direct mode is chosen, the IndexTool will throw an NPE if it's not
present.
