Class Repeatedly

java.lang.Object

org.apache.beam.sdk.transforms.windowing.Trigger

org.apache.beam.sdk.transforms.windowing.Repeatedly

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public class Repeatedly
extends Trigger

A Trigger that fires according to its subtrigger forever.

For example, to fire after the end of the window, and every time late data arrives:

 Repeatedly.forever(AfterWatermark.pastEndOfWindow());
 

Repeatedly.forever(someTrigger) behaves like an infinite AfterEach.inOrder(someTrigger, someTrigger, someTrigger, ...).

You can use Trigger.orFinally(OnceTrigger) to let another trigger interrupt the repetition.

Method Detail

forever

public static Repeatedly forever(Trigger repeated)

Create a composite trigger that repeatedly executes the trigger repeated, firing each time it fires and ignoring any indications to finish.

Unless used with Trigger.orFinally(org.apache.beam.sdk.transforms.windowing.Trigger.OnceTrigger) the composite trigger will never finish.

Parameters:

repeated - the trigger to execute repeatedly.

getRepeatedTrigger

public Trigger getRepeatedTrigger()

getWatermarkThatGuaranteesFiring

public Instant getWatermarkThatGuaranteesFiring(BoundedWindow window)

Description copied from class: Trigger

For internal use only; no backwards-compatibility guarantees.

Returns a bound in event time by which this trigger would have fired at least once for a given window had there been input data.

For triggers that do not fire based on the watermark advancing, returns BoundedWindow.TIMESTAMP_MAX_VALUE.

This estimate may be used, for example, to determine that there are no elements in a side-input window, which causes the default value to be used instead.

Specified by:

getWatermarkThatGuaranteesFiring in class Trigger

mayFinish

public boolean mayFinish()

Description copied from class: Trigger

For internal use only; no backwards-compatibility guarantees.

Indicates whether this trigger may "finish". A top level trigger that finishes can cause data loss, so is rejected by GroupByKey validation.

Specified by:

mayFinish in class Trigger

getContinuationTrigger

protected Trigger getContinuationTrigger(java.util.List<Trigger> continuationTriggers)

Description copied from class: Trigger

Subclasses should override this to return the Trigger.getContinuationTrigger() of this Trigger. For convenience, this is provided the continuation trigger of each of the sub-triggers in the same order as Trigger.subTriggers.

Specified by:

getContinuationTrigger in class Trigger

Parameters:

continuationTriggers - contains the result of Trigger.getContinuationTrigger() on each of the subTriggers in the same order.

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:
