AsyncBigtable

This is an HBase library intended to work as a drop in replacement for the
fantastic AsyncHBase library and integrate OpenTSDB with Google Bigtable.
It is using the Apache HBase 1.0 API linking the Google Bigtable
libraries.

This library started out as a fork of the asynchbase 1.5.0 library, therefore one may
find code that at first sight may look strange. We are working on cleaning
up the code base and removing irrelevant dependencies.

Basic Installation

Contrary to the original asynchbase library, asyncbigtable has adopted Maven
as the building tool for this project.

To produce the jar file, simply run:

mvn clean package

Maven will produce the following two jar files under the target/ directory:

asyncbigtable-<version>.jar which is the compiled jar file
asyncbigtable-<version>-jar-with-dependencies.jar which is an assembly jar containing
all dependencies required for asyncbigtable to run with OpenTSDB. Please note that this
jar does not include all dependencies but only the ones for OpenTSDB.

Javadoc

Since AsyncBigtable tries to be 100% compatible with AsyncHBase, please read the
AsyncHBase javadoc.

Integration Tests

Integration tests can be run as follows:

mvn clean verify -Pbt-integration-test -Dgoogle.bigtable.project.id=<projectId> -Dgoogle.bigtable.instance.id=<instanceId>

Disclaimer

Please note that the library is still under development and it was never meant
to replace AsyncHBase when running with an HBase backend or be a general
purpose HBase library.
