Flink SQL FileSystem Connector 分区提交与自定义小文件合并策略

Flink SQL 的 FileSystem Connector 为了与 Flink-Hive 集成的大环境适配，做了很多改进，而其中最为明显的就是分区提交（partition commit）机制。
﻿
本文先通过源码简单过一下分区提交机制的两个要素——即触发（trigger）和策略（policy）的实现，然后用合并小文件的实例说一下自定义分区提交策略的方法。

那么，已经写入的分区数据何时才能对下游可见呢？这就涉及到如何触发分区提交的问题。根据官方文档，触发参数有以下两个：
﻿
sink.partition-commit.trigger：可选 process-time（根据处理时间触发）和 partition-time（根据从事件时间中提取的分区时间触发）。
sink.partition-commit.delay：分区提交的时延。如果 trigger 是 process-time，则以分区创建时的系统时间戳为准，经过此时延后提交；如果 trigger 是 partition-time，则以分区创建时本身携带的事件时间戳为准，当水印时间戳经过此时延后提交。
﻿
可见，process-time trigger 无法应对处理过程中出现的抖动，一旦数据迟到或者程序失败重启，数据就不能按照事件时间被归入正确的分区了。所以在实际应用中，我们几乎总是选用 partition-time trigger，并自己生成水印。当然我们也需要通过 partition.time-extractor.*一系列参数来指定抽取分区时间的规则（PartitionTimeExtractor），官方文档说得很清楚，不再赘述。
﻿
在源码中，PartitionCommitTrigger 的类图如下。
﻿
﻿
下面以分区时间触发的 PartitionTimeCommitTrigger 为例，简单看看它的思路。直接上该类的完整代码。
﻿
public class PartitionTimeCommitTigger implements PartitionCommitTrigger {
    private static final ListStateDescriptor<List<String>> PENDING_PARTITIONS_STATE_DESC =
            new ListStateDescriptor<>(
                    "pending-partitions",
                    new ListSerializer<>(StringSerializer.INSTANCE));
﻿
    private static final ListStateDescriptor<Map<Long, Long>> WATERMARKS_STATE_DESC =
            new ListStateDescriptor<>(
                    "checkpoint-id-to-watermark",
                    new MapSerializer<>(LongSerializer.INSTANCE, LongSerializer.INSTANCE));
﻿
    private final ListState<List<String>> pendingPartitionsState;
    private final Set<String> pendingPartitions;
﻿
    private final ListState<Map<Long, Long>> watermarksState;
    private final TreeMap<Long, Long> watermarks;
    private final PartitionTimeExtractor extractor;
    private final long commitDelay;
    private final List<String> partitionKeys;
﻿
    public PartitionTimeCommitTigger(
            boolean isRestored,
            OperatorStateStore stateStore,
            Configuration conf,
            ClassLoader cl,
            List<String> partitionKeys) throws Exception {
        this.pendingPartitionsState = stateStore.getListState(PENDING_PARTITIONS_STATE_DESC);
        this.pendingPartitions = new HashSet<>();
        if (isRestored) {
            pendingPartitions.addAll(pendingPartitionsState.get().iterator().next());
        }
﻿
        this.partitionKeys = partitionKeys;
        this.commitDelay = conf.get(SINK_PARTITION_COMMIT_DELAY).toMillis();
        this.extractor = PartitionTimeExtractor.create(
                cl,
                conf.get(PARTITION_TIME_EXTRACTOR_KIND),
                conf.get(PARTITION_TIME_EXTRACTOR_CLASS),
                conf.get(PARTITION_TIME_EXTRACTOR_TIMESTAMP_PATTERN));
﻿
        this.watermarksState = stateStore.getListState(WATERMARKS_STATE_DESC);
        this.watermarks = new TreeMap<>();
        if (isRestored) {
            watermarks.putAll(watermarksState.get().iterator().next());
        }
    }
﻿
    @Override
    public void addPartition(String partition) {
        if (!StringUtils.isNullOrWhitespaceOnly(partition)) {
            this.pendingPartitions.add(partition);
        }
    }
﻿
    @Override
    public List<String> committablePartitions(long checkpointId) {
        if (!watermarks.containsKey(checkpointId)) {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException(String.format(
                    "Checkpoint(%d) has not been snapshot. The watermark information is: %s.",
                    checkpointId, watermarks));
        }
﻿
        long watermark = watermarks.get(checkpointId);
        watermarks.headMap(checkpointId, true).clear();
﻿
        List<String> needCommit = new ArrayList<>();
        Iterator<String> iter = pendingPartitions.iterator();
        while (iter.hasNext()) {
            String partition = iter.next();
            LocalDateTime partTime = extractor.extract(
                    partitionKeys, extractPartitionValues(new Path(partition)));
            if (watermark > toMills(partTime) + commitDelay) {
                needCommit.add(partition);
                iter.remove();
            }
        }
        return needCommit;
    }
﻿
    @Override
    public void snapshotState(long checkpointId, long watermark) throws Exception {
        pendingPartitionsState.clear();
        pendingPartitionsState.add(new ArrayList<>(pendingPartitions));
﻿
        watermarks.put(checkpointId, watermark);
        watermarksState.clear();
        watermarksState.add(new HashMap<>(watermarks));
    }
﻿
    @Override
    public List<String> endInput() {
        ArrayList<String> partitions = new ArrayList<>(pendingPartitions);
        pendingPartitions.clear();
        return partitions;
    }
}
注意到该类中维护了两对必要的信息：
﻿
pendingPartitions/pendingPartitionsState：等待提交的分区以及对应的状态；
watermarks/watermarksState：<检查点 ID, 水印时间戳>的映射关系（用 TreeMap 存储以保证有序）以及对应的状态。
﻿
这也说明开启检查点是分区提交机制的前提。snapshotState() 方法用于将这些信息保存到状态中。这样在程序 failover 时，也能够保证分区数据的完整和正确。
﻿
那么 PartitionTimeCommitTigger 是如何知道该提交哪些分区的呢？来看 committablePartitions() 方法：
﻿
检查 checkpoint ID 是否合法；
取出当前 checkpoint ID 对应的水印，并调用 TreeMap的headMap() 和 clear() 方法删掉早于当前 checkpoint ID 的水印数据（没用了）；
遍历等待提交的分区，调用之前定义的 PartitionTimeExtractor（比如${year}-${month}-${day} ${hour}:00:00）抽取分区时间。如果水印时间已经超过了分区时间加上上述 sink.partition-commit.delay 参数，说明可以提交，并返回它们。
﻿
PartitionCommitTrigger 的逻辑会在负责真正提交分区的 StreamingFileCommitter 组件中用到（注意 StreamingFileCommitter 的并行度固定为 1，之前有人问过这件事）。StreamingFileCommitter 和 StreamingFileWriter（即 SQL 版 StreamingFileSink）的细节相对比较复杂，本文不表，之后会详细说明。
﻿
PartitionCommitPolicy﻿
metastore：向 Hive Metastore 更新分区信息（仅在使用 HiveCatalog 时有效）；
success-file：向分区目录下写一个表示成功的文件，文件名可以通过 sink.partition-commit.success-file.name 参数自定义，默认为_SUCCESS；
custom：自定义的提交策略，需要通过 sink.partition-commit.policy.class 参数来指定策略的类名。
﻿
PartitionCommitPolicy 的内部实现就简单多了，类图如下。策略的具体逻辑通过覆写 commit() 方法实现。
﻿
﻿
两个默认实现 MetastoreCommitPolicy 和 SuccessFileCommitPolicy 如下，都非常容易理解。
﻿
public class MetastoreCommitPolicy implements PartitionCommitPolicy {
    private static final Logger LOG = LoggerFactory.getLogger(MetastoreCommitPolicy.class);
﻿
    private TableMetaStore metaStore;
﻿
    public void setMetastore(TableMetaStore metaStore) {
        this.metaStore = metaStore;
    }
﻿
    @Override
    public void commit(Context context) throws Exception {
        LinkedHashMap<String, String> partitionSpec = context.partitionSpec();
        metaStore.createOrAlterPartition(partitionSpec, context.partitionPath());
        LOG.info("Committed partition {} to metastore", partitionSpec);
    }
}
﻿
public class SuccessFileCommitPolicy implements PartitionCommitPolicy {
    private static final Logger LOG = LoggerFactory.getLogger(SuccessFileCommitPolicy.class);
﻿
    private final String fileName;
    private final FileSystem fileSystem;
﻿
    public SuccessFileCommitPolicy(String fileName, FileSystem fileSystem) {
        this.fileName = fileName;
        this.fileSystem = fileSystem;
    }
﻿
    @Override
    public void commit(Context context) throws Exception {
        fileSystem.create(
                new Path(context.partitionPath(), fileName),
                FileSystem.WriteMode.OVERWRITE).close();
        LOG.info("Committed partition {} with success file", context.partitionSpec());
    }
}
﻿
Customize PartitionCommitPolicy﻿
﻿
由上图可见，在写入比较频繁或者并行度比较大时，每个分区内都会出现很多细碎的小文件，这是我们不乐意看到的。下面尝试自定义 PartitionCommitPolicy，实现在分区提交时将它们顺便合并在一起（存储格式为 Parquet）。
﻿
﻿
Parquet 格式与普通的TextFile等行存储格式不同，它是自描述（自带 schema 和 metadata）的列存储，数据结构按照 Google Dremel 的标准格式来组织，与 Protobuf 相同。所以，我们应该先检测写入文件的 schema，再按照 schema 分别读取它们，并拼合在一起。
﻿
下面贴出合并分区内所有小文件的完整策略 ParquetFileMergingCommitPolicy。为了保证依赖不冲突，Parquet 相关的组件全部采用 Flink shade 过的版本。窃以为代码写得还算工整易懂，所以偷懒不写注释了。

'sink.partition-commit.policy.kind' = 'metastore,success-file,custom', 
'sink.partition-commit.policy.class' = 'me.lmagics.flinkexp.hiveintegration.util.ParquetFileMergingCommitPolicy'
﻿
重新跑一遍之前的 Hive Streaming 程序，观察日志输出：
﻿

﻿
最后来验证一下，合并成功。
﻿
﻿
以上。感兴趣的同学也可以动手测试～
