CLI
Once hudi has been built, the shell can be fired by via cd hudi-cli && ./hudi-cli.sh. A hudi table resides on DFS, in a location referred to as the basePath and
we would need this location in order to connect to a Hudi table. Hudi library effectively manages this table internally, using .hoodie subfolder to track all metadata.
To initialize a hudi table, use the following command.

hudi:trips->
Inspecting Commits
The task of upserting or inserting a batch of incoming records is known as a commit in Hudi. A commit provides basic atomicity guarantees such that only committed data is available for querying. Each commit has a monotonically increasing string/number called the commit number. Typically, this is the time at which we started the commit.
To view some basic information about the last 10 commits,
hudi:trips->commits show --sortBy "Total Bytes Written" --desc true --limit 10
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
| CommitTime | Total Bytes Written| Total Files Added| Total Files Updated| Total Partitions Written| Total Records Written| Total Update Records Written| Total Errors|
|=======================================================================================================================================================================|
....
....
....
At the start of each write, Hudi also writes a .inflight commit to the .hoodie folder. You can use the timestamp there to estimate how long the commit has been inflight
$ hdfs dfs -ls /app/uber/trips/.hoodie/*.inflight
-rw-r--r-- 3 vinoth supergroup 321984 2016-10-05 23:18 /app/uber/trips/.hoodie/20161005225920.inflight
Drilling Down to a specific Commit
To understand how the writes spread across specific partiions,
hudi:trips->commit showpartitions --commit 20161005165855 --sortBy "Total Bytes Written" --desc true --limit 10
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
| Partition Path| Total Files Added| Total Files Updated| Total Records Inserted| Total Records Updated| Total Bytes Written| Total Errors|
|=========================================================================================================================================|
....
....
If you need file level granularity , we can do the following
hudi:trips->commit showfiles --commit 20161005165855 --sortBy "Partition Path"
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
| Partition Path| File ID | Previous Commit| Total Records Updated| Total Records Written| Total Bytes Written| Total Errors|
|=======================================================================================================================================================|
....
....
FileSystem View
Hudi views each partition as a collection of file-groups with each file-group containing a list of file-slices in commit order (See concepts). The below commands allow users to view the file-slices for a data-set.
hudi:stock_ticks_mor->show fsview all

Statistics
Since Hudi directly manages file sizes for DFS table, it might be good to get an overall picture
hudi:trips->stats filesizes --partitionPath 2016/09/01 --sortBy "95th" --desc true --limit 10
________________________________________________________________________________________________
| CommitTime | Min | 10th | 50th | avg | 95th | Max | NumFiles| StdDev |
|===============================================================================================|
| <COMMIT_ID> | 93.9 MB | 93.9 MB | 93.9 MB | 93.9 MB | 93.9 MB | 93.9 MB | 2 | 2.3 KB |
....
....
In case of Hudi write taking much longer, it might be good to see the write amplification for any sudden increases
hudi:trips->stats wa
__________________________________________________________________________
| CommitTime | Total Upserted| Total Written| Write Amplifiation Factor|
|=========================================================================|
....
....
Archived Commits
In order to limit the amount of growth of .commit files on DFS, Hudi archives older .commit files (with due respect to the cleaner policy) into a commits.archived file. This is a sequence file that contains a mapping from commitNumber => json with raw information about the commit (same that is nicely rolled up above).
Compactions
To get an idea of the lag between compaction and writer applications, use the below command to list down all pending compactions.
hudi:trips->compactions show all
___________________________________________________________________
| Compaction Instant Time| State | Total FileIds to be Compacted|
|==================================================================|
| <INSTANT_1> | REQUESTED| 35 |
| <INSTANT_2> | INFLIGHT | 27 |
To inspect a specific compaction plan, use
hudi:trips->compaction show --instant <INSTANT_1>
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NOTE: The following commands must be executed without any other writer/ingestion application running. {: .notice--warning}
Sometimes, it becomes necessary to remove a fileId from a compaction-plan inorder to speed-up or unblock compaction operation. Any new log-files that happened on this file after the compaction got scheduled will be safely renamed so that are preserved. Hudi provides the following CLI to support it
Unscheduling Compaction
hudi:trips->compaction unscheduleFileId --fileId <FileUUID>
....
No File renames needed to unschedule file from pending compaction. Operation successful.
In other cases, an entire compaction plan needs to be reverted. This is supported by the following CLI
hudi:trips->compaction unschedule --instant <compactionInstant>
.....
No File renames needed to unschedule pending compaction. Operation successful.
Repair Compaction
The above compaction unscheduling operations could sometimes fail partially (e:g -> DFS temporarily unavailable). With
partial failures, the compaction operation could become inconsistent with the state of file-slices. When you run
compaction validate, you can notice invalid compaction operations if there is one. In these cases, the repair
command comes to the rescue, it will rearrange the file-slices so that there is no loss and the file-slices are
consistent with the compaction plan
hudi:stock_ticks_mor->compaction repair --instant 20181005222611
......
Compaction successfully repaired
