Rebased and fixed all test failures. I think this is ready for review. Would you mind taking a look @julienledem or @isnotinvain? Thanks! |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
rename to isListElementType ?

This adds convenience methods for writing to files using the RecordConsumer API directly. This is useful for mimicing files from other writers for compatibility tests.
Parquet-thrift can now read files not written by parquet-thrift if an appropriate Thrift class is supplied. This adds a check to derive the necessary StructType from a class. Previously, attempting to read a file without Thrift metadata in its properties would return a null ThriftMetaData and throw NPE. This also updates the logic in ThriftMetaData.fromExtraMetaData to avoid NPE when the class is present by the descriptor property is not.
This mirrors the support in parquet-avro and uses an isElementType check in the schema converter. Thrift classes are compiled and must always be present, so there is no ambiguous case because the expected structure is always known. This initial version suppresses nulls when list elements are optional. There is no way to pass a null list element to thrift when it constructs records. This does not change how parquet-thrift writes or converts schemas, so there are no projection changes needed.
This adds parquet.thrift.ignore-null-elements to suppress an exception thrown when reading a list with optional elements. This makes reading Hive lists an opt-in so that the caller must be aware that null values are ignored.
This should be a temporary change, until 1.6.0 is released. The Semver check is catching that the ThriftRecordConverter now implements Configurable. This is a binary-compatible change that should not require a major version update.
Previously, this added Configurable to ThriftRecordConverter, but that caused problems with semver and test failures because a separate initialize method had to be called. This is brittle because callers might not know to call initialize and the class is part of the API because subclassing is allowed. To avoid the issue, this replaces the Configurable interface and initialize method with a new constructor that takes a Configuration.
This fixes parquet-avro and parquet-thrift list handling for the case where the Parquet schema columns are projected and only one remains. This appears to not match the element schema because the element schema has more than one field. The solution is to match the element schema if the Parquet schema is a subset.

@tsdeng, could you have another look at this? I think it is ready to go. |

This implements the read-side compatibility rules for 2-level and 3-level lists in Thrift. Thrift doesn't allow null elements inside lists, but 3-level lists may have optional elements. This PR adds a property, parquet.thrift.ignore-null-elements, that allows thrift to read lists with optional elements by ignoring nulls. This is off by default, but is provided as an opt-in for compatibility with data written by Hive. Thrift's schema conversion does not change because a Thrift class (or Scrooge etc.) must be set in a file's metadata or provided when constructing a reader. This replaces and closes apache#144.

This updates parquet-thrift so that it implements the list reading rules specified by PARQUET-113. Null values are not allowed in Thrift, and the protocol cannot be amended to include them. Optional list elements are handled in this PR by throwing an exception (default) or by ignoring null values if
parquet.thrift.ignore-null-elementsis set to true in theConfiguration.
