RawKV

Below is the basic usages of RawKV. See API document to see a full list of methods available.

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Optional;
import org.tikv.common.TiConfiguration;
import org.tikv.common.TiSession;
import org.tikv.kvproto.Kvrpcpb;
import org.tikv.raw.RawKVClient;
import org.tikv.shade.com.google.protobuf.ByteString;

public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    // You MUST create a raw configuration if you are using RawKVClient.
    TiConfiguration conf = TiConfiguration.createRawDefault("127.0.0.1:2379");
    TiSession session = TiSession.create(conf);
    RawKVClient client = session.createRawClient();

    // put
    client.put(ByteString.copyFromUtf8("k1"), ByteString.copyFromUtf8("Hello"));
    client.put(ByteString.copyFromUtf8("k2"), ByteString.copyFromUtf8(","));
    client.put(ByteString.copyFromUtf8("k3"), ByteString.copyFromUtf8("World"));
    client.put(ByteString.copyFromUtf8("k4"), ByteString.copyFromUtf8("!"));
    client.put(ByteString.copyFromUtf8("k5"), ByteString.copyFromUtf8("Raw KV"));

    // get
    Optional<ByteString> result = client.get(ByteString.copyFromUtf8("k1"));
    System.out.println(result.get().toStringUtf8());

    // batch get
    List<Kvrpcpb.KvPair> list = client.batchGet(new ArrayList<ByteString>() {{
        add(ByteString.copyFromUtf8("k1"));
        add(ByteString.copyFromUtf8("k3"));
    }});
    System.out.println(list);

    // scan
    list = client.scan(ByteString.copyFromUtf8("k1"), ByteString.copyFromUtf8("k6"), 10);
    System.out.println(list);

    // close
    client.close();
    session.close();
  }
}

API V2

With TiKV version >= 6.1.0, we release a new feature called "TiKV API V2" which provides a new raw key-value storage format allowing the coexistence of RawKV and TxnKV. Please refer to v6.10 release notes for detail.

To enable the API V2 mode, users need to specify the API version of the client.

// import ...
import org.tikv.common.TiConfiguration.ApiVersion;

public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    TiConfiguration conf = TiConfiguration.createRawDefault("127.0.0.1:2379");
    conf.setApiVersion(ApiVersion.V2);
    try(TiSession session = TiSession.create(conf)) {
      try(RawKVClient client = session.createRawClient()) {
        // The client will read and write date in the format of API V2, which is
        // transparent to the users.
        client.put(ByteString.copyFromUtf8("hello"), ByteString.copyFromUtf8("world"));
        // other client operations.
      }
    }
  }
}

Compatibility

The V2 Client should not access the cluster other than V2, this requires users to enable the API V2 for the cluster:

[storage]
# The V2 cluster must enable ttl for RawKV explicitly
enable-ttl = true
api-version = 2

If V2 client accesses a V1 cluster or V1 cluster accesses a V2 cluster, the requests will be denied by the cluster. You can check the compatibility via the following matrix.
