Delete HBase records individually or in batches. The input can be a single row ID in the flowfile content, one ID per line, row IDs separated by a configurable separator character (default is a comma).

Properties:

In the list below, the names of required properties appear in bold. Any other properties (not in bold) are considered optional. The table also indicates any default values, and whether a property supports the Expression Language Guide.

Name	Default Value	Allowable Values	Description
HBase Client Service		Controller Service API:  HBaseClientService Implementations:  HBase_1_1_2_ClientService HBase_2_ClientService	Specifies the Controller Service to use for accessing HBase.
Table Name			The name of the HBase Table. Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry)
Row Identifier			Specifies the Row ID to use when deleting data into HBase Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry)
Row ID Location	content	* FlowFile content  * FlowFile attributes	The location of the row ID to use for building the delete. Can be from the content or an expression language statement.
Flowfile Fetch Count	5		The number of flowfiles to fetch per run.
Batch Size	50		The number of deletes to send per batch.
Delete Row Key Separator	,		The separator character(s) that separate multiple row keys when multiple row keys are provided in the flowfile content Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry)
Visibility Label			If visibility labels are enabled, a row cannot be deleted without supplying its visibility label(s) in the delete request. Note: this visibility label will be applied to all cells within the row that is specified. If some cells have different visibility labels, they will not be deleted. When that happens, the failure to delete will be considered a success because HBase does not report it as a failure. Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry)
Character Set	UTF-8		The character set used to encode the row key for HBase.

Relationships:

Name	Description
success	A FlowFile is routed to this relationship after it has been successfully stored in HBase
failure	A FlowFile is routed to this relationship if it cannot be sent to HBase

Reads Attributes:

None specified.

Writes Attributes:

Name	Description
restart.index	If a delete batch fails, 'restart.index' attribute is added to the FlowFile and sent to 'failure' relationship, so that this processor can retry from there when the same FlowFile is routed again.
rowkey.start	The first rowkey in the flowfile. Only written when using the flowfile's content for the row IDs.
rowkey.end	The last rowkey in the flowfile. Only written when using the flowfile's content for the row IDs.
