zookeeper client pure javascript

node-zookeeper-client

A pure Javascript ZooKeeper client module for Node.js.

This module is designed to resemble the ZooKeeper Java client API but with tweaks to follow the convention of Node.js modules. Developers that are familiar with the ZooKeeper Java client would be able to pick it up quickly.

This module has been tested to work with ZooKeeper version 3.4.*.

Installation

You can install it using npm:

$ npm install node-zookeeper-client

Example

1. Create a node using given path:

var zookeeper = require('node-zookeeper-client');

var client = zookeeper.createClient('localhost:2181');
var path = process.argv[2];

client.once('connected', function () {
    console.log('Connected to the server.');

    client.create(path, function (error) {
        if (error) {
            console.log('Failed to create node: %s due to: %s.', path, error);
        } else {
            console.log('Node: %s is successfully created.', path);
        }

        client.close();
    });
});

client.connect();

2. List and watch the children of given node:

var zookeeper = require('node-zookeeper-client');

var client = zookeeper.createClient('localhost:2181');
var path = process.argv[2];

function listChildren(client, path) {
    client.getChildren(
        path,
        function (event) {
            console.log('Got watcher event: %s', event);
            listChildren(client, path);
        },
        function (error, children, stat) {
            if (error) {
                console.log(
                    'Failed to list children of %s due to: %s.',
                    path,
                    error
                );
                return;
            }

            console.log('Children of %s are: %j.', path, children);
        }
    );
}

client.once('connected', function () {
    console.log('Connected to ZooKeeper.');
    listChildren(client, path);
});

client.connect();

Documentation

Client createClient(connectionString, [options])

Factory method to create a new zookeeper client instance.

Arguments

connectionString String - Comma separated host:port pairs, each represents a ZooKeeper server. You can optionally append a chroot path, then the client would be rooted at the given path. e.g.
```
'localhost:3000,locahost:3001,localhost:3002'
'localhost:2181,localhost:2182/test'
```
options Object - An object to set the client options. Currently available options are:
- sessionTimeout Session timeout in milliseconds, defaults to 30 seconds.
- spinDelay The delay (in milliseconds) between each connection attempts.
- retries The number of retry attempts for connection loss exception.
Defaults options:
```
{
    sessionTimeout: 30000,
    spinDelay : 1000,
    retries : 0
}
```

Example

var client = zookeeper.createClient(
    'localhost:2181/test',
    { sessionTimeout: 10000 }
);

Client

This is the main class of ZooKeeper client module. An application must use createClient method to instantiate the client.

Once a connection from the client to the server is established, a session id is assigned to the client. The client will starts sending heart beats to the server periodically to keep the session valid.

If the client fails to send heart beats to the server for a prolonged period of time (exceeding the sessionTimeout value), the server will expire the session. The client object will no longer be usable.

If the ZooKeeper server the client currently connects to fails or otherwise does not respond, the client will automatically try to connect to another server before its session times out. If successful, the application can continue to use the client.

This class inherits from events.EventEmitter class, see Event for details.

void connect()

Initiate the connection to the provided server list (ensemble). The client will pick an arbitrary server from the list and attempt to connect to it. If the establishment of the connection fails, another server will be tried (picked randomly) until a connection is established or close method is invoked.

void close()

Close this client. Once the client is closed, its session becomes invalid. All the ephemeral nodes in the ZooKeeper server associated with the session will be removed. The watchers left on those nodes (and on their parents) will be triggered.

State getState()

Return the current client state.

Example

var client = zookeeper.createClient({...});
var state = client.getState();
console.log('Current state is: %s', state);

Buffer getSessionId()

Returns the session id of this client instance. The value returned is not valid until the client connects to a server and may change after a re-connect.

The id returned is a long integer stored into a 8 bytes Buffer since Javascript does not support long integer natively.

Example

var client = zookeeper.createClient({...});
var id = client.getSessionId();
console.log('Session id is: %s', id.toString('hex'));

Buffer getSessionPassword()

Returns the session password of this client instance. The value returned is not valid until the client connects to a server and may change after a re-connect.

The value returned is an instance of Buffer.

Example

var client = zookeeper.createClient({...});
var pwd = client.getSessionPassword();

Number getSessionTimeout()

Returns the negotiated session timeout (in milliseconds) for this client instance. The value returned is not valid until the client connects to a server and may change after a re-connect.

Example

var client = zookeeper.createClient({...});
var sessionTimeout = client.getSessionTimeout();

State

After the connect() method is invoked, the ZooKeeper client starts its life cycle and transitions its state as described in the following diagram.

state transition

There are two ways to watch the client state changes:

1. Node.js convention: Register event listener on the specific event which interests you. The following is the list of events that can be watched:

connected - Client is connected and ready.
connectedReadOnly - Client is connected to a readonly server.
disconnected - The connection between client and server is dropped.
expired - The client session is expired.
authenticationFailed - Failed to authenticate with the server.

Note: some events (e.g. connected or disconnected) maybe be emitted more than once during the client life cycle.

Example

client.on('connected', function () {
    console.log('Client state is changed to connected.');
});

2. Java client convention: Register one event listener on the state event to watch all state transitions. The listener callback will be called with an instance of the State class. The following is the list of exported state instances:

State.CONNECTED - Client is connected and ready.
State.CONNECTED_READ_ONLY - Client is connected to a readonly server.
State.DISCONNECTED - The connection between client and server is dropped.
State.EXPIRED - The client session is expired.
State.AUTH_FAILED - Failed to authenticate with the server.

client.on('state', function (state) {
    if (state === zookeeper.State.SYNC_CONNECTED) {
        console.log('Client state is changed to connected.');
    }
});

Event

Optionally, you can register watcher functions when calling exists, getChildren and getData methods. The watcher function will be called with an instance of Event.

Properties

There are four type of events are exposed as Event class properties.

NODE_CREATED - Watched node is created.
NODE_DELETED - watched node is deleted.
NODE_DATA_CHANGED - Data of watched node is changed.
NODE_CHILDREN_CHANGED - Children of watched node is changed.

Number getType()

Return the type of the event.

String getName()

Return the name of the event.

Number getPath()

Return the path of the event.

String toString()

Return a string representation of the event.

Transaction

Transaction provides a builder interface to construct and commit a set of operations atomically.

Example

var client = zookeeper.createClient(process.argv[2] || 'localhost:2181');

client.once('connected', function () {
    client.transaction().
        create('/txn').
        create('/txn/1', Buffer.from('transaction')).
        setData('/txn/1', Buffer.from('test'), -1).
        check('/txn/1').
        remove('/txn/1', -1).
        remove('/txn').
        commit(function (error, results) {
            if (error) {
                console.log(
                    'Failed to execute the transaction: %s, results: %j',
                    error,
                    results
                );

                return;
            }

            console.log('Transaction completed.');
            client.close();
        });
});
