HBase with Go

[Trung Pham]

Do you know how I can access HBase data from a Go application?

I can't seem to find any Hbase client for Go...

[Henrik Johansson]

I think there is a REST interface to HBase, Stargate but not really
sure of its status.

HBase has a thrift interface
(http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase/ThriftApi) and it can be used to
access HBase from go.

Yes that seems to be the way to go.

https://github.com/pomack/thrift4go might be what you need.

I was wondering whether we should be making use of another library
instead of just Thirft stuff. The author has mentioned that the
necessity of the project was because of the fact that the upstream
development was closed for that release and he has maintain it
separately. As also mentioned in the project description, it seems the
project has been rebased in this revision
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/thrift/tags/thrift-0.8.0/ . So i think
just using thrift should be fine.

Does the author not mean that this repo is still needed for thift 0.8?

It seems that this repo is rebased upon thrift 0.8 but is still needed
for proper Go support.

I might have time to test later but i suspect that this is the case.

I could see the necessary files required for go version in the lib/
folder (thrift 8.0,
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/thrift/tags/thrift-0.8.0/lib/). I
think it should be enough to get started.

The Author tried to merge it with 0.7.0 version of Thrift which was
ceased for release. It was merged before the 0.8.0 release.

Yeah. There is a ReST interface but its deprecated
(http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase/HbaseRest)

Over the last year has this advice changed? 

Thanks,

The native rest engine is depreciated in favor of Stargate. So use
REST w/Stargate.

This page can be reached from the official docs here:
http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase

Just look at the "HBase non-java access" section.

I can find some by searching: http://go-search.org/search?q=hbase

But none is widely used, not sure of whether they are OK for you.

I also find that hbae has 2 version thrift interface, the other version interface of thrift is called thrift2, and this version gen code by thrift can be directly used by golang, it's very good, and I also write some introduces about thrift2 in my blog: http://blog.kissdata.com/2014/08/04/golang-thrift-hbase.html
