In some cases, you may want to migrate your existing table into Hudi
beforehand. Please refer to [migration guide](/docs/migration_guide.html).
+## MultiTableDeltaStreamer
+
+`HoodieMultiTableDeltaStreamer`, a wrapper on top of `HoodieDeltaStreamer`,
enables one to ingest multiple tables at a go into hudi datasets. Currently it
only supports sequential processing of tables to be ingested and COPY_ON_WRITE
storage type. The command line options for `HoodieMultiTableDeltaStreamer` are
pretty much similar to `HoodieDeltaStreamer` with the only exception that you
are required to provide table wise configs in separate files in a dedicated
config folder. The following command line options are introduced
+
+```java
+ * --config-folder
+ the path to the folder which contains all the table wise config files
+ --base-path-prefix
+ this is added to enable users to create all the hudi datasets for related
tables under one path in FS. The datasets are then created under the path -
<base_path_prefix>/<database>/<table_to_be_ingested>. However you can override
the paths for every table by setting the property
hoodie.deltastreamer.ingestion.targetBasePath
+```
+
+The following properties are needed to be set properly to ingest data using
`HoodieMultiTableDeltaStreamer`.
+
+```java
+hoodie.deltastreamer.ingestion.tablesToBeIngested
+ comma separated names of tables to be ingested in the format
<database>.<table>, for example db1.table1,db1.table2
+hoodie.deltastreamer.ingestion.targetBasePath
+ if you wish to ingest a particular table in a separate path, you can mention
that path here
+hoodie.deltastreamer.ingestion.<database>.<table>.configFile
+ path to the config file in dedicated config folder which contains table
overridden properties for the particular table to be ingested.
+```
+
+Sample config files for table wise overridden properties can be found under
`hudi-utilities/src/test/resources/delta-streamer-config`. The command to run
`HoodieMultiTableDeltaStreamer` is also similar to how you run
`HoodieDeltaStreamer`.
+
+```java
+[hoodie]$ spark-submit --class
org.apache.hudi.utilities.deltastreamer.HoodieMultiTableDeltaStreamer `ls
packaging/hudi-utilities-bundle/target/hudi-utilities-bundle-*.jar` \
+ --props
file://${PWD}/hudi-utilities/src/test/resources/delta-streamer-config/kafka-source.properties
\
+ --config-folder file://tmp/hudi-ingestion-config \
+ --schemaprovider-class
org.apache.hudi.utilities.schema.SchemaRegistryProvider \
+ --source-class org.apache.hudi.utilities.sources.AvroKafkaSource \
+ --source-ordering-field impresssiontime \
+ --base-path-prefix file:\/\/\/tmp/hudi-deltastreamer-op \
+ --target-table uber.impressions \
Review comment:
@pratyakshsharma Is this a default target-table if its not overwritten
by the individual table properties files ?
