Class TimestampsAndWatermarksOperator<T>

java.lang.Object
org.apache.flink.streaming.api.operators.AbstractStreamOperator<T>
org.apache.flink.streaming.runtime.operators.TimestampsAndWatermarksOperator<T>
Type Parameters:
T - The type of the input elements
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, org.apache.flink.api.common.operators.ProcessingTimeService.ProcessingTimeCallback, org.apache.flink.api.common.state.CheckpointListener, Input<T>, KeyContext, KeyContextHandler, OneInputStreamOperator<T,T>, StreamOperator<T>, StreamOperatorStateHandler.CheckpointedStreamOperator, YieldingOperator<T>

public class TimestampsAndWatermarksOperator<T> extends AbstractStreamOperator<T> implements OneInputStreamOperator<T,T>, org.apache.flink.api.common.operators.ProcessingTimeService.ProcessingTimeCallback
A stream operator that may do one or both of the following: extract timestamps from events and generate watermarks.

These two responsibilities run in the same operator rather than in two different ones, because the implementation of the timestamp assigner and the watermark generator is frequently in the same class (and should be run in the same instance), even though the separate interfaces support the use of different classes.

    • open

      public void open() throws Exception
      Description copied from class: AbstractStreamOperator
      This method is called immediately before any elements are processed, it should contain the operator's initialization logic, e.g. state initialization.

      The default implementation does nothing.

      Specified by:
      open in interface StreamOperator<T>
      Overrides:
      open in class AbstractStreamOperator<T>
      Throws:
      Exception - An exception in this method causes the operator to fail.
    • close

      public void close() throws Exception
      Description copied from interface: StreamOperator
      This method is called at the very end of the operator's life, both in the case of a successful completion of the operation, and in the case of a failure and canceling.

      This method is expected to make a thorough effort to release all resources that the operator has acquired.

      NOTE:It can not emit any records! If you need to emit records at the end of processing, do so in the StreamOperator.finish() method.

      Specified by:
      close in interface StreamOperator<T>
      Overrides:
      close in class AbstractStreamOperator<T>
      Throws:
      Exception
    • processElement

      public void processElement(StreamRecord<T> element) throws Exception
      Description copied from interface: Input
      Processes one element that arrived on this input of the MultipleInputStreamOperator. This method is guaranteed to not be called concurrently with other methods of the operator.
      Specified by:
      processElement in interface Input<T>
      Throws:
      Exception
    • onProcessingTime

      public void onProcessingTime(long timestamp) throws Exception
      Specified by:
      onProcessingTime in interface org.apache.flink.api.common.operators.ProcessingTimeService.ProcessingTimeCallback
      Throws:
      Exception
    • processWatermark

      public void processWatermark(Watermark mark) throws Exception
      Override the base implementation to completely ignore watermarks propagated from upstream, except for the "end of time" watermark.
      Specified by:
      processWatermark in interface Input<T>
      Overrides:
      processWatermark in class AbstractStreamOperator<T>
      Throws:
      Exception
      See Also:
    • processWatermarkStatus

      public void processWatermarkStatus(WatermarkStatus watermarkStatus) throws Exception
      Override the base implementation to completely ignore statuses propagated from upstream.
      Specified by:
      processWatermarkStatus in interface Input<T>
      Overrides:
      processWatermarkStatus in class AbstractStreamOperator<T>
      Throws:
      Exception
      See Also:
    • finish

      public void finish() throws Exception
      Description copied from interface: StreamOperator
      This method is called at the end of data processing.

      The method is expected to flush all remaining buffered data. Exceptions during this flushing of buffered data should be propagated, in order to cause the operation to be recognized as failed, because the last data items are not processed properly.

      After this method is called, no more records can be produced for the downstream operators.

      WARNING: It is not safe to use this method to commit any transactions or other side effects! You can use this method to flush any buffered data that can later on be committed e.g. in a CheckpointListener.notifyCheckpointComplete(long).

      NOTE:This method does not need to close any resources. You should release external resources in the StreamOperator.close() method.

      Specified by:
      finish in interface StreamOperator<T>
      Overrides:
      finish in class AbstractStreamOperator<T>
      Throws:
      Exception - An exception in this method causes the operator to fail.
