aiowebhdfs 0.0.1

A modern and asynchronous web client for WebHDFS

aiowebhdfs

I know, nobody uses Hadoop anymore, but for those who do, here is a library that handles large files with async features for web requests using the httpx library and aiofiles for streaming data from HDFS

Features

• Implements retries and timeout windows with retry_async from opnieuw library
• Implements streaming through the aiofiles library
• Implments async requests through the httpx library
• Fully tested for core subset of operations in WebHDFS v3.2.1

CREATE = Write File

from aiowebhdfs import WebHdfsAsyncClient
client = WebHdfsAsyncClient(host='namenode.local', port=8443, user='spark', kerberos_token=token)
client.create('c:\\temp\\bigfile.txt', '/data/agg/bigfile.txt', overwrite=False)

OPEN = Read File

from aiowebhdfs import WebHdfsAsyncClient
client = WebHdfsAsyncClient(host='namenode.local', port=8443, user='spark', kerberos_token=token)
client.open('/data/agg/bigfile.txt')
Content of the file

GETFILESTATUS = File Info

from aiowebhdfs import WebHdfsAsyncClient
client = WebHdfsAsyncClient(host='namenode.local', port=8443, user='spark', kerberos_token=token)
client.get_file_status('/data/agg/bigfile.txt')

    "accessTime"      : 0,
    "blockSize"       : 0,
    "group"           : "supergroup",
    "length"          : 0,             //in bytes, zero for directories
    "modificationTime": 1320173277227,

    "replication"     : 0,
    "type"            : "DIRECTORY"    //enum {FILE, DIRECTORY}
  }
}

LISTSTATUS = List Directory

from aiowebhdfs import WebHdfsAsyncClient
client = WebHdfsAsyncClient(host='namenode.local', port=8443, user='spark', kerberos_token=token)
client.list_directory('/tmp')
