Thrift是个啥东东?
来自wiki.apache.org/thrift/FrontPage的定义
Thrift is a software framework for scalable cross-language services development.
Thrift是为了实现跨语言服务访问的一个框架
Thrift allows you to define data types and service interfaces in a simple definition file.
Thrift定义了数据和服务的描述方式,是一种IDL
Taking that file as input, the compiler generates code to be used to easily build RPC clients and servers that communicate seamlessly across programming languages.
写一个定义文件,就可以使用thrift来生成某种语言RPC客户端和服务端程序框架。你只需要考虑如何实现你的服务就可以了。并且它支持很多种语言。
这有点像web service, 定义好一个web service服务描述文件后,可以使用如axis等工具生成服务器端或客户端的框架程序。
为什么还需要Thrift
thrift-20070401.pdf中有解释。
1、多语言开发的需要
比如其中提到的搜索服务,LAMP本身没有这个功能,开发者可能使用C++开发,php如何访问这个服务呢?于是需要有一种高效的跨语言访问的方法。
2、性能问题
web service也可以实现多语言互访问的功能,但xml文件太大,性能不行。Thrift可以使用二进值的格式。
开始测试
实现一个简单的服务,就是根据loginName得到User, user中有userId,loginName, name, password
第一步,写Thrift IDL文件 ,user.thrift,
- namespace java mytest.thrift.gen
- namespace py mytest.thrift
- struct User {
- 1: i32 userId,
- 2: string loginName,
- 3: string password,
- 4: string name
- }
- exception UserNotFound {
- 1: string message
- }
- service UserService {
- User getUser(1:string loginName) throws (1:UserNotFound unf),
- list<User> getUsers()
- }
第二步,生成java和python代码
thrift --gen java user.thrift
thrift --gen py user.thrift
第三步,实现java服务端
参见:http://wiki.apache.org/thrift/ThriftUsageJava
服务实现 UserServiceHandler.java
- package myserver;
- import java.util.ArrayList;
- import java.util.List;
- import mytest.thrift.gen.User;
- import mytest.thrift.gen.UserNotFound;
- import mytest.thrift.gen.UserService;
- import org.apache.thrift.TException;
- public class UserServiceHandler implements UserService.Iface {
- @Override
- public User getUser(String loginName) throws UserNotFound, TException {
- if (!"login1".equals(loginName)) {
- UserNotFound e = new UserNotFound("User not Found!");
- throw e;
- }
- User user = new User();
- user.setUserId(100);
- user.setLoginName("login1");
- user.setPassword("pwd1");
- user.setName("user1");
- return user;
- }
- @Override
- public List<User> getUsers() throws TException {
- List<User> list = new ArrayList<User>();
- User user = new User();
- user.setUserId(100);
- user.setLoginName("login1");
- user.setPassword("pwd1");
- user.setName("user1");
- list.add(user);
- User user2 = new User();
- user2.setUserId(200);
- user2.setLoginName("login2");
- user2.setPassword("pwd2");
- user2.setName("user2");
- list.add(user2);
- return list;
- }
- }
主程序 Server.java
- package myserver;
- import mytest.thrift.gen.UserService;
- import org.apache.thrift.server.TServer;
- import org.apache.thrift.server.TSimpleServer;
- import org.apache.thrift.transport.TServerSocket;
- import org.apache.thrift.transport.TServerTransport;
- public class Server {
- public static void main(String[] args) {
- try {
- UserServiceHandler handler = new UserServiceHandler();
- UserService.Processor processor = new UserService.Processor(handler);
- TServerTransport serverTransport = new TServerSocket(9090);
- TServer server = new TSimpleServer(processor, serverTransport);
-
-
- System.out.println("Starting the server...");
- server.serve();
- } catch (Exception x) {
- x.printStackTrace();
- }
- System.out.println("done.");
- }
- }
第四步,实现java客户端
- package myclient;
- import java.util.Iterator;
- import java.util.List;
- import mytest.thrift.gen.User;
- import mytest.thrift.gen.UserNotFound;
- import mytest.thrift.gen.UserService;
- import org.apache.thrift.TException;
- import org.apache.thrift.protocol.TBinaryProtocol;
- import org.apache.thrift.protocol.TProtocol;
- import org.apache.thrift.transport.TSocket;
- import org.apache.thrift.transport.TTransport;
- public class Client {
- public static void main(String[] args) {
- try {
- TTransport transport = new TSocket("localhost", 9090);
- TProtocol protocol = new TBinaryProtocol(transport);
- UserService.Client client = new UserService.Client(protocol);
- transport.open();
- System.out.println("test1");
- try {
- User user1 = client.getUser("login1");
- System.out.println("name=" + user1.getName());
- } catch (UserNotFound e) {
- System.out.println(e.getMessage());
- }
-
- System.out.println("test2");
- try {
- User user2 = client.getUser("login10");
- System.out.println("name=" + user2.getName());
- } catch (UserNotFound e) {
- System.out.println(e.getMessage());
- }
-
- System.out.println("test3");
- List<User> list = client.getUsers();
- Iterator<User> it = list.iterator();
- while(it.hasNext()){
- User u = it.next();
- System.out.println("name=" + u.getName());
- }
- transport.close();
- } catch (TException x) {
- x.printStackTrace();
- }
- }
- }
第五步,实现python客户端
- from mytest.thrift import UserService
- from mytest.thrift.ttypes import UserNotFound
- from thrift import Thrift
- from thrift.transport import TSocket
- from thrift.transport import TTransport
- from thrift.protocol import TBinaryProtocol
- try:
- # Make socket
- transport = TSocket.TSocket('localhost', 9090)
- # Buffering is critical. Raw sockets are very slow
- transport = TTransport.TBufferedTransport(transport)
- # Wrap in a protocol
- protocol = TBinaryProtocol.TBinaryProtocol(transport)
- # Create a client to use the protocol encoder
- client = UserService.Client(protocol)
- # Connect!
- transport.open()
- try:
- user1 = client.getUser("login1")
- print user1.name
- except UserNotFound, io:
- print '%r' % io
- # Close!
- transport.close()
- except Thrift.TException, tx:
- print '%s' % (tx.message)
