Rest access to HBase

The HBase rest service needs to be started on the server before you start the HBase rest server
Bin/hbase Rest Start-p <port>
Start the HBase service in the background
bin/hbase-daemon.sh Start Rest-p <port>
Stop Service
bin/hbase-daemon.sh Stop Rest

Port defaults to 8080 without port

The Python code that uses the requests module to access the rest interface is as follows, where comments are accessed using the Curl command:

    BaseURL = "http://192.168.119.128:8080"; #获取表table2中rowkey为liu的行 response = Requests.get (baseurl+ '/table2/liu ', headers={"Accept": "Application/json"}) ' ' Equivalent to Curl-h ' Accept:application/json ' http://192.168.119.128:8080/table2/liu ' print response.

HBase access methods include the following:
1. Native Java API: The most conventional and efficient way to access;
2, hbase shell:hbase command line tool, the simplest interface, suitable for hbase management use;
3, Thrift Gateway: The use of Thrift serialization technology, support C++,php,python and other languages, suitable for other heterogeneous systems online access hbase table data;
4, rest Gateway: Support the rest-style HTTP API to access HBase, lifting the language restrictions;
5. MapReduce: Processing hbase data directly using mapreduce operations;
6. Use pig/hive to process hbase data.
