Interface TimeWindowedKStream<K,​V>

  • Type Parameters:
    K - Type of keys
    V - Type of values
    public interface TimeWindowedKStream<K,​V>
    TimeWindowedKStream is an abstraction of a windowed record stream of KeyValue pairs. It is an intermediate representation of a KStream in order to apply a windowed aggregation operation on the original KStream records.

    It is an intermediate representation after a grouping and windowing of a KStream before an aggregation is applied to the new (partitioned) windows resulting in a windowed KTable (a windowed KTable is a KTable with key type Windowed.

    The specified windows define either hopping time windows that can be overlapping or tumbling (c.f. TimeWindows) or they define landmark windows (c.f. UnlimitedWindows). The result is written into a local windowed KeyValueStore (which is basically an ever-updating materialized view) that can be queried using the name provided in the Materialized instance. Windows are retained until their retention time expires (c.f. Windows.until(long)). Furthermore, updates to the store are sent downstream into a windowed KTable changelog stream, where "windowed" implies that the KTable key is a combined key of the original record key and a window ID. A WindowedKStream must be obtained from a KGroupedStream via KGroupedStream.windowedBy(Windows) .

    • Method Detail

      • count

        KTable<Windowed<K>,​java.lang.Long> count()
        Count the number of records in this stream by the grouped key and the defined windows. Records with null key or value are ignored.

        Not all updates might get sent downstream, as an internal cache is used to deduplicate consecutive updates to the same window and key. The rate of propagated updates depends on your input data rate, the number of distinct keys, the number of parallel running Kafka Streams instances, and the configuration parameters for cache size, and commit intervall.

        For failure and recovery the store will be backed by an internal changelog topic that will be created in Kafka. The changelog topic will be named "${applicationId}-${internalStoreName}-changelog", where "applicationId" is user-specified in StreamsConfig via parameter APPLICATION_ID_CONFIG, "internalStoreName" is an internal name and "-changelog" is a fixed suffix. Note that the internal store name may not be queriable through Interactive Queries. You can retrieve all generated internal topic names via KafkaStreams.toString().

        Returns:
        a KTable that contains "update" records with unmodified keys and Long values that represent the latest (rolling) count (i.e., number of records) for each key

      • count

        KTable<Windowed<K>,​java.lang.Long> count​(Materialized<K,​java.lang.Long,​WindowStore<org.apache.kafka.common.utils.Bytes,​byte[]>> materialized)
        Count the number of records in this stream by the grouped key and the defined windows. Records with null key or value are ignored.

        Not all updates might get sent downstream, as an internal cache will be used to deduplicate consecutive updates to the same window and key if caching is enabled on the Materialized instance. When caching is enabled the rate of propagated updates depends on your input data rate, the number of distinct keys, the number of parallel running Kafka Streams instances, and the configuration parameters for cache size, and commit intervall

        To query the local windowed KeyValueStore it must be obtained via KafkaStreams#store(...): 

        
 KafkaStreams streams = ... // counting words
 Store queryableStoreName = ... // the queryableStoreName should be the name of the store as defined by the Materialized instance
 ReadOnlyWindowStore<String,Long> localWindowStore = streams.store(queryableStoreName, QueryableStoreTypes.<String, Long>windowStore());

 String key = "some-word";
 long fromTime = ...;
 long toTime = ...;
 WindowStoreIterator<Long> countForWordsForWindows = localWindowStore.fetch(key, timeFrom, timeTo); // key must be local (application state is shared over all running Kafka Streams instances)
        For non-local keys, a custom RPC mechanism must be implemented using KafkaStreams.allMetadata() to query the value of the key on a parallel running instance of your Kafka Streams application.
        Parameters:
        materialized - an instance of Materialized used to materialize a state store. Cannot be null. Note: the valueSerde will be automatically set to Serdes.Long() if there is no valueSerde provided
        Returns:
        a KTable that contains "update" records with unmodified keys and Long values that represent the latest (rolling) count (i.e., number of records) for each key

      • aggregate

        <VR> KTable<Windowed<K>,​VR> aggregate​(Initializer<VR> initializer,
                                            Aggregator<? super K,​? super V,​VR> aggregator)
        Aggregate the values of records in this stream by the grouped key. Records with null key or value are ignored. Aggregating is a generalization of combining via reduce(...) as it, for example, allows the result to have a different type than the input values. The result is written into a local KeyValueStore (which is basically an ever-updating materialized view) that can be queried using the provided queryableStoreName. Furthermore, updates to the store are sent downstream into a KTable changelog stream.

        The specified Initializer is applied once directly before the first input record is processed to provide an initial intermediate aggregation result that is used to process the first record. The specified Aggregator is applied for each input record and computes a new aggregate using the current aggregate (or for the very first record using the intermediate aggregation result provided via the Initializer) and the record's value. Thus, aggregate(Initializer, Aggregator) can be used to compute aggregate functions like count (c.f. count()).

        The default value serde from config will be used for serializing the result. If a different serde is required then you should use aggregate(Initializer, Aggregator, Materialized).

        Not all updates might get sent downstream, as an internal cache is used to deduplicate consecutive updates to the same key. The rate of propagated updates depends on your input data rate, the number of distinct keys, the number of parallel running Kafka Streams instances, and the configuration parameters for cache size, and commit intervall.

        For failure and recovery the store will be backed by an internal changelog topic that will be created in Kafka. The changelog topic will be named "${applicationId}-${internalStoreName}-changelog", where "applicationId" is user-specified in StreamsConfig via parameter APPLICATION_ID_CONFIG, "internalStoreName" is an internal name and "-changelog" is a fixed suffix. Note that the internal store name may not be queriable through Interactive Queries. You can retrieve all generated internal topic names via KafkaStreams.toString().

        Type Parameters:
        VR - the value type of the resulting KTable
        Parameters:
        initializer - an Initializer that computes an initial intermediate aggregation result
        aggregator - an Aggregator that computes a new aggregate result
        Returns:
        a KTable that contains "update" records with unmodified keys, and values that represent the latest (rolling) aggregate for each key

                                            Materialized<K,​VR,​WindowStore<org.apache.kafka.common.utils.Bytes,​byte[]>> materialized)
        Aggregate the values of records in this stream by the grouped key. Records with null key or value are ignored. Aggregating is a generalization of combining via reduce(...) as it, for example, allows the result to have a different type than the input values. The result is written into a local KeyValueStore (which is basically an ever-updating materialized view) that can be queried using the store name as provided with Materialized.

        The specified Initializer is applied once directly before the first input record is processed to provide an initial intermediate aggregation result that is used to process the first record. The specified Aggregator is applied for each input record and computes a new aggregate using the current aggregate (or for the very first record using the intermediate aggregation result provided via the Initializer) and the record's value. Thus, aggregate(Initializer, Aggregator, Materialized) can be used to compute aggregate functions like count (c.f. count()).

        Type Parameters:
        VR - the value type of the resulting KTable
        Parameters:
        initializer - an Initializer that computes an initial intermediate aggregation result
        aggregator - an Aggregator that computes a new aggregate result
        materialized - an instance of Materialized used to materialize a state store. Cannot be null.
        Returns:
        a KTable that contains "update" records with unmodified keys, and values that represent the latest (rolling) aggregate for each key

      • reduce

        KTable<Windowed<K>,​V> reduce​(Reducer<V> reducer)
        Combine the values of records in this stream by the grouped key. Records with null key or value are ignored. Combining implies that the type of the aggregate result is the same as the type of the input value. The result is written into a local KeyValueStore (which is basically an ever-updating materialized view) that can be queried using the provided queryableStoreName. Furthermore, updates to the store are sent downstream into a KTable changelog stream.

        The specified Reducer is applied for each input record and computes a new aggregate using the current aggregate and the record's value. If there is no current aggregate the Reducer is not applied and the new aggregate will be the record's value as-is. Thus, reduce(Reducer, String) can be used to compute aggregate functions like sum, min, or max.

        Not all updates might get sent downstream, as an internal cache is used to deduplicate consecutive updates to the same key. The rate of propagated updates depends on your input data rate, the number of distinct keys, the number of parallel running Kafka Streams instances, and the configuration parameters for cache size, and commit intervall.

        For failure and recovery the store will be backed by an internal changelog topic that will be created in Kafka.

        Parameters:
        reducer - a Reducer that computes a new aggregate result
        Returns:
