Compaction Small Files Mock in Python
Simulates a small-files compaction job by creating small mock files and merging them into a single output file using Python's standard library.
from pathlib import Path
import tempfile
import os
def create_small_files(directory: Path, file_count: int = 5, lines_per_file: int = 3):
"""Create several small mock files with sample content."""
directory.mkdir(exist_ok=True)
for i in range(file_count):
file_path = directory / f"part-{i:04d}.tx…Hudi Upsert Mock Copy on Write in Python
Simulates Apache Hudi's Copy-on-Write upsert behavior by merging update records into a deep copy of base records, replacing matches or appending new ones.
import copy
from typing import Dict, List, Any
def upsert_copy_on_write(base_records: List[Dict[str, Any]], updates: List[Dict[str, Any]], key_field: str = "id") -> List[Dict[str, Any]]:
"""Simulate Hudi Copy-on-Write upsert: merge updates into a copy of base records."""
result = copy.deepcopy(base_records)
