使用Thrift Java API Hbase进行范围扫描

Question

I have 10 million rows in hbase and I would like to do range scan for retrieval process. Currently we are using java thrift api to connect to hbase. I know the hbase shell command for range scan

scan 'tablename', {STARTROW => '639415', ENDROW => '639415'}

Can any one tell me how to achieve this using java thrift api?

Answer 1

I wonder why do you use thrift api, not native java api ?

You can find a good tutorial in cloudera blog, explains thrift api, and this link is about Scan https://blog.cloudera.com/blog/2014/04/how-to-use-the-hbase-thrift-interface-part-3-using-scans/

By the way, in your example above, start and stop rows are same, since stop row is not included in hbase scan, it won't return any result.
