Here each token range would represent one 'token' but all events for > the day. > {code:java} > Set<UUID> accounts = getRelevantAccounts(); > Set<String> dateRange = generateDateRange("2018-01-01", "2019-01-01"); > PCollection<TokenRange> tokens = generateTokens(accounts, dateRange); > {code} > > I propose an additional _readAll()_ PTransform that can take a PCollection > of token ranges and can return a PCollection<T> of what the query would > return. > *Question: How much code should be in common between both methods?* > Currently the read connector already groups all partitions into a List of > Token Ranges, so it would be simple to refactor the current read() based > method to a 'ParDo' based one and have them both share the same function. > Reasons against sharing code between read and readAll > * Not having the read based method return a BoundedSource connector would > mean losing the ability to know the size of the data returned > * Currently the CassandraReader executes all the grouped TokenRange queries > *asynchronously* which is (maybe?) fine when all that's happening is > splitting up all the partition ranges but terrible for executing potentially > millions of queries. > Reasons _for_ sharing code would be simplified code base and that both of > the above issues would most likely have a negligable performance impact. > > > -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
