public abstract class DataSet<T>
extends Object

A DataSet represents a collection of elements of the same type.

A DataSet can be transformed into another DataSet by applying a transformation as for example

• map(org.apache.flink.api.common.functions.MapFunction),
• reduce(org.apache.flink.api.common.functions.ReduceFunction),
• join(DataSet), or
• coGroup(DataSet).

fillInType

protected void fillInType(TypeInformation<T> typeInfo)

Deprecated.

Tries to fill in the type information. Type information can be filled in later when the program uses a type hint. This method checks whether the type information has ever been accessed before and does not allow modifications if the type was accessed already. This ensures consistency by making sure different parts of the operation do not assume different type information.

Parameters:

typeInfo - The type information to fill in.

Throws:

IllegalStateException - Thrown, if the type information has been accessed before.

map

public <R> MapOperator<T,R> map(MapFunction<T,R> mapper)

Deprecated.

Applies a Map transformation on this DataSet.

The transformation calls a MapFunction for each element of the DataSet. Each MapFunction call returns exactly one element.

Parameters:

mapper - The MapFunction that is called for each element of the DataSet.

mapPartition - The MapPartitionFunction that is called for the full DataSet.

Returns:

A MapPartitionOperator that represents the transformed DataSet.

See Also:

MapPartitionFunction, MapPartitionOperator

flatMap

public <R> FlatMapOperator<T,R> flatMap(FlatMapFunction<T,R> flatMapper)

Parameters:

reducer - The GroupReduceFunction that is applied on the DataSet.

Returns:

A GroupReduceOperator that represents the reduced DataSet.

See Also:

RichGroupReduceFunction, GroupReduceOperator, DataSet

combineGroup

public <R> GroupCombineOperator<T,R> combineGroup(GroupCombineFunction<T,R> combiner)

Deprecated.

Applies a GroupCombineFunction on a non-grouped DataSet. A CombineFunction is similar to a GroupReduceFunction but does not perform a full data exchange. Instead, the CombineFunction calls the combine method once per partition for combining a group of results. This operator is suitable for combining values into an intermediate format before doing a proper groupReduce where the data is shuffled across the node for further reduction. The GroupReduce operator can also be supplied with a combiner by implementing the RichGroupReduce function. The combine method of the RichGroupReduce function demands input and output type to be the same. The CombineFunction, on the other side, can have an arbitrary output type.

Parameters:

combiner - The GroupCombineFunction that is applied on the DataSet.

Returns:

A GroupCombineOperator which represents the combined DataSet.

minBy

iterate

public IterativeDataSet<T> iterate(int maxIterations)

Deprecated.

Initiates an iterative part of the program that executes multiple times and feeds back data sets. The iterative part needs to be closed by calling IterativeDataSet.closeWith(DataSet). The data set given to the closeWith(DataSet) method is the data set that will be fed back and used as the input to the next iteration. The return value of the closeWith(DataSet) method is the resulting data set after the iteration has terminated.

An example of an iterative computation is as follows:

 DataSet<Double> input = ...;

 DataSet<Double> startOfIteration = input.iterate(10);
 DataSet<Double> toBeFedBack = startOfIteration
                               .map(new MyMapper())
                               .groupBy(...).reduceGroup(new MyReducer());
 DataSet<Double> result = startOfIteration.closeWith(toBeFedBack);
 

The iteration has a maximum number of times that it executes. A dynamic termination can be realized by using a termination criterion (see IterativeDataSet.closeWith(DataSet, DataSet)).

Parameters:

maxIterations - The maximum number of times that the iteration is executed.

Returns:

An IterativeDataSet that marks the start of the iterative part and needs to be closed by IterativeDataSet.closeWith(DataSet).

                                            int maxIterations,
                                            int... keyPositions)

Deprecated.

Initiates a delta iteration. A delta iteration is similar to a regular iteration (as started by iterate(int), but maintains state across the individual iteration steps. The Solution set, which represents the current state at the beginning of each iteration can be obtained via DeltaIteration.getSolutionSet(). It can be be accessed by joining (or CoGrouping) with it. The DataSet that represents the workset of an iteration can be obtained via DeltaIteration.getWorkset(). The solution set is updated by producing a delta for it, which is merged into the solution set at the end of each iteration step.

The delta iteration must be closed by calling DeltaIteration.closeWith(DataSet, DataSet). The two parameters are the delta for the solution set and the new workset (the data set that will be fed back). The return value of the closeWith(DataSet, DataSet) method is the resulting data set after the iteration has terminated. Delta iterations terminate when the feed back data set (the workset) is empty. In addition, a maximum number of steps is given as a fall back termination guard.

Elements in the solution set are uniquely identified by a key. When merging the solution set delta, contained elements with the same key are replaced.

NOTE: Delta iterations currently support only tuple valued data types. This restriction will be removed in the future. The key is specified by the tuple position.

A code example for a delta iteration is as follows

 DeltaIteration<Tuple2<Long, Long>, Tuple2<Long, Long>> iteration =
                                                  initialState.iterateDelta(initialFeedbackSet, 100, 0);

 DataSet<Tuple2<Long, Long>> delta = iteration.groupBy(0).aggregate(Aggregations.AVG, 1)
                                              .join(iteration.getSolutionSet()).where(0).equalTo(0)
                                              .flatMap(new ProjectAndFilter());

 DataSet<Tuple2<Long, Long>> feedBack = delta.join(someOtherSet).where(...).equalTo(...).with(...);

 // close the delta iteration (delta and new workset are identical)
 DataSet<Tuple2<Long, Long>> result = iteration.closeWith(delta, feedBack);
 

Parameters:

workset - The initial version of the data set that is fed back to the next iteration step (the workset).

maxIterations - The maximum number of iteration steps, as a fall back safeguard.

keyPositions - The position of the tuple fields that is used as the key of the solution set.

Returns:

The DeltaIteration that marks the start of a delta iteration.
