METRON-1539: Specialized RENAME field transformer ## Contributor Comments Currently our advice is to use the Stellar field transformation to do simple field renaming. Given how common this situation is and how the old field must be nulled out, thus making the stellar transformation awkward, it's worthwhile having a specialized field transformer for RENAME. * Create a new parser by editing `$METRON_HOME/config/zookeeper/parsers/dummy.json` to have the following content: ``` { "parserClassName":"org.apache.metron.parsers.json.JSONMapParser", "sensorTopic":"dummy", "fieldTransformations" : [ { "transformation" : "STELLAR" ,"output" : [ "new_field"] ,"config" : { "new_field" : "JOIN( [ TO_UPPER(source.type), field ], ',' )" } }, { "transformation" : "RENAME" , "config" : { "new_field" : "newer_field" } } ] } ``` * Create the dummy kafka topic via `/usr/hdp/current/kafka-broker/bin/kafka-topics.sh --zookeeper node1:2181 --create --topic dummy --partitions 1 --replication-factor 1` * Push the zookeeper configs via `$METRON_HOME/bin/zk_load_configs.sh --mode PUSH -i $METRON_HOME/config/zookeeper -z node1:2181` * Start the parser via `$METRON_HOME/bin/start_parser_topology.sh -k node1:6667 -z node1:2181 -s dummy` * Create some dummy data by creating a file at `~/dummy.dat` with the following: ``` { "field" : "f1", "source.type" : "dummy" } { "field" : "f2", "source.type" : "dummy" } { "field" : "f3", "source.type" : "dummy" } { "field" : "f4", "source.type" : "dummy" } { "field" : "f5", "source.type" : "dummy" } { "field" : "f6", "source.type" : "dummy" } { "field" : "f7", "source.type" : "dummy" } ``` * Send the dummy data in via `cat ~/dummy.dat | /usr/hdp/current/kafka-broker/bin/kafka-console-producer.sh --broker-list node1:6667 --topic dummy` * Ensure the data written to the indices has a field `newer_field` that looks like `DUMMY,${field}` and no `new_field` ## Pull Request Checklist Thank you for submitting a contribution to Apache Metron.
