7.5. Using the Accumulo Data Store Programmatically

7.5.1. Creating a Data Store

An instance of an Accumulo data store can be obtained through the normal GeoTools discovery methods, assuming that the GeoMesa code is on the classpath:

Map<String, String> parameters = new HashMap<>;
parameters.put("instanceId", "myInstance");
parameters.put("zookeepers", "zoo1,zoo2,zoo3");
parameters.put("user", "myUser");
parameters.put("password", "myPassword");
parameters.put("tableName", "my_table");
org.geotools.data.DataStore dataStore = org.geotools.data.DataStoreFinder.getDataStore(parameters);

More information on using GeoTools can be found in the GeoTools user guide.

7.5.2. Parameters

The Accumulo Data Store takes several parameters:

Parameter	Description
instanceId *	The instance ID of the Accumulo installation
zookeepers *	A comma separated list of zookeeper servers (e.g. “zoo1,zoo2,zoo3” or “localhost:2181”)
user *	Accumulo username
password	Accumulo password
keytabPath	Path to a Kerberos keytab file containing an entry for the specified user
tableName *	The name of the GeoMesa catalog table
auths	Comma-delimited superset of authorizations that will be used for queries via Accumulo.
visibilities	Accumulo visibilities to apply to all written data
queryTimeout	The max time (in sec) a query will be allowed to run before being killed
queryThreads	The number of threads to use per query
recordThreads	The number of threads to use for record retrieval
writeThreads	The number of threads to use for writing records
collectStats	Toggle collection of statistics
